Tips

Use the two 2.5GbE ports in link aggregation for faster throughput to multiple clients. For 10GbE connectivity, install a compatible PCIe network card. Enable Btrfs snapshots and schedule regular backups to protect against ransomware. Keep the NAS in a well-ventilated rack with stable power—the redundant PSUs ensure continuity if one fails.
