Hey everyone! I am looking for a broken or dead QNAP HS-453DX NAS unit that you were planning to throw in the trash. I want to use it for parts/a fun repair project. I am located in the San Antonio, Texas area. I am happy to drive to pick it up if you are local, or pay 100% of the shipping costs if you need to mail it. You can keep all internal parts like the memory, HDDs, and the power supply since I do not need them.

Note to Mods: I know Rule 2 says "no buying or selling". This is strictly a free donation request for a trash-bound item, and no money is changing hands for the hardware!

Please send me a DM if you have one gathering dust. Thanks!

Looking for some help on the 2014 Mac mini, which is running only a 2TB NVME for storage/8Gb Ram. I have done some research and extensive troubleshooting, but always hangs when attempting to load DSM. The option to enable both nvme adding are checked and DSM rebuild, but keeps hanging around 56% completion. Any help will be greatly appreciated!!!

Using the latest Arc Loader 3.1.0 / have build the imaged in numerous different brands flash drives / have read the information wiki, specially:

• At least one SATA/SAS drive required for system installation (except SA6400 with nvmesystem add-on)

Which is the DSM version I have been trying: SA6400 (running perfectly on the 2012 Mac mini.
