Hey man! No I haven't seen the post - I'll have a look tomorrow after work.
I hear good things about Synology. My biggest issue right now is that I have been using Crashplan for cloud backups for about 15 years, but it has become crap and can't handle the size of my backups. It started backing up at only 1-2 megabit per second and will take years to finish now. I am working on getting backblaze set up but I have to do a bit of rigmarole to get the cheaper non-server price. I have like 20-30TB to backup so I want the unlimited space.
The new mac is working fantastic with my current workflow going back and forth from Davinci Resolve to GPU intensive AI upscaling software. Technically I can get faster results with the GPU part upscaling with RTX 4090s, but for the rest of my work, the M4 just blows everything else away. It's a very pleasant computer to work on!
