Quick add to the thread, I did the 10->11 and then OMV5->6 upgrade recently and everything went as planned and has been working well since (over a week in now).

In general any electronic device should be plugged in to a proper electrical outlet with a circuit breaker. The circuit breaker is critical in cutting the current in case of a short, therefore preventing a fire.

Soo... Something like this? https://www.aaeon.com/en/p/ai-modules-m2ai-2280-520

Both M.2 and 2.5" SSD models push the same 560/530MB/s regardless of the connection (R/W on a WD Blue 1TB 3D NAND for example), pretty much all of the SATAIII M.2 cards max out at 560/530MB (as do the SATAIII drives). ARC cache is in memory and can be extended to L2ARC cache on a SSD as a read cache, very curious to see how this performs on the Helios64 and if the 4GB of RAM is suitable. I pre-ordered BTW, so I guess I'm going to find out! Maybe a little ambitious, but my goal is an Armbian\OMV\ZFS\Docker system.

Any benefit to using an M.2 card vs. a SATA SSD drive? Also curious about ZFS support\performance, has Kobol done any testing with this? My primary interest is on data integrity, RAIDZ and SSD read caching capability (no dedupe). Thanks! Edit: looking at 1x1TB SSD and 4x8TB SATA overall disk choices
