First NAS I've ever had (excluding a 2012 Apple Timecapsule), and yes this is complete overkill for my current purposes, but go big or go home right? Anyway, here are the specs: - Asrock IMB-X1714 (W680 chipset ATX mobo) - Intel 12th gen i5 12500TE (6c 12t) so I didn't have to worry about the big/little architecture - Currently only running 1 stick of DDR5 32GB Micron ECC Udimm - 512GB INland Boot drive connected to the M.2 E key w/ an adapter card - Micron 7400 Pro 1.92TB mirrored with a 1.92TB Samsung PM983 M.2 SSDs on the mobo gen 4 & gen 3 slots respectively - 2 TeamGroup MP34 4TB M.2 SSDs mirrored; I have another one in an external USB4 enclosure that I plan to add to the pool if/when pool expansion is implemented on a Glotrends PA40 pcie 3.0 x8 card with an ASM 2824 chip with 4 m.2 slots. I am planning to replace it with a PEX/PLX 8747 based card to see if I can improve power efficiency - Unbranded dual 10Gb SFP+ from Aliexpress running Intel X710 chip - Chassis came from a NUUO Titan NVR, but it is really just a Supermicro SC 825 variant with 8 bays, only 1 currently populated with a 2TB WD HDD that I was initially using for testing before I installed HexOS. I know I kinda started contrary to how most servers are configured with an all nvme setup since there are 8 hotswap bays that are all currently unused in HexOS, but that's only because I got the 4TB SSDs for an insane price around ~$350 total from a local amazon return auction all new/sealed. I have an 8TB Samsung ssd for cold backups and I don't require more than that at the moment. I do plan on adding 2.5" or 3.5" drives to the mix once I get closer to 60-70% storage utilization. Pardon my cable management

Well done. What are you using to run this?

Sorry in advance if I've missed this somewhere else... however I wanted to know if version 1.0 will be built on top of the beta, or will everything up until the HexOS 1.0 release essentially have to be redone with a fresh install? I understand that this is a beta, but given that this product is marketed as a plug n play NAS OS solution I think it is a fair question for setting proper expectations

Mine is 3.0 x 8 with a 4 slot expansion and low profile (Glotrends PA40 but there are likely other brands using the same card since it appears to be a Chinese company) Have you checked c states in with powertop? I can’t get pkg hw past c2 so I am wanting to try and optimize further for lower idle power consumption

Anyone here have experience using pcie cards for m.2 expansion that doesn’t require mobo bifurcation? I currently have a card using an asmedia asm 2824 chip that is preventing deeper sleep/idle c states and was just wondering if anyone else has had luck with a similar setup. I am debating trying a different card and returning this one Ideally I am looking for a low profile card but just wanted to get some feedback from anyone who may know of a different chip that is suitable
