Yeah but that misses the key point. I don’t want a large chunky server. I love how small the 2-bay Synologies are, even the 4 bays are compact. Know any generic hardware like that? Looking like I may move to QNAP next.
I’m interested in that as well. I want to get a 4 or 6 bay form factor for the home that’s reasonably quiet and supports easily swapping out drives. I’m fine with using something like TrueNAS on the software side, but I want hardware that fits together nicely and not some sort of Frankenstein desktop tower.

Yes, minisforum makes many bespoke solutions that are nas sized. What requirements are you looking for that they don’t meet?
