Aka my self-hosting journey
My hardware
- UGREEN NASync DXP2800
- 2 x Seagate IronWolf 4TB hard drive
I'm out of storage space, so my next upgrade is going to be new hard drives. However, I also would like at least 32GB RAM, and for that I'd have to get to DXP4800Plus (the DXP2800 only supports up to 16GB). In that case, I'd have 4 slots for hard drives, so I could see putting 4 8TB drives in there.
