Low power and reliability is why I want to just use my Mac Mini M4 + DAS as storage solution among 15 people. I am not sold on it because Mac Mini has lots of life in it to be solely devoted to this use case.
- lostlogin 1y agoI recently got one as a home server. It’s ludicrously power efficient and so powerful. But it’s a battle getting it to behave, with OS fights at every stage. It took me a week of fighting to get it to reliably power up, connect to network shares and then start some containers. How could this be hard?
