Filled my HDDs and looking to upgrade to a proper NAS. I don't want to build a custom box.

Would prefer something open that I can install TrueNAS, but I'm open to arguments in favor of something more locked down like Synology.

Use case is as a media server, serving video and music over local network. I try to minimize transcoding of streams, but the ability to do so would be nice for things with subtitles and such. Currently have 10 TB capacity, mirrored. Looking at 4-5 bay, RAID 5 or 6.

Question is: Asustor, QNAP, UGREEN, iX Systems (though this would be top of budget, and honestly hardware is older, but it does offer 8 cores, and ECC memory), or something else entirely? I've been down the rabbit hole and I'm overwhelmed with options.

How can one be so smug, and yet so ignorant? Smugnorant?

I use a VM for those sorts of things where WINE just doesn't cut it, but I can understand wanting to run bare metal. Do you dual boot, or did you decide to go full win11?

Teenage "edgelord" is my guess.

Who's gonna tell him Truth Social is a fork of Mastodon?

I think what most people mean by "legal" immigration is an assumption of "vetted", not "waved the magic legal pen".
