What would you do?

Hey all,

I had a clog in my ender 3v2 hotend and also bits of the clogs ended up inside the bowden tube after I pulled out the filament..... tried to remove though was hopeless.

I picked up a new hotend with installed ptfe tube, with wiring etc. I have a microprobe v2 that I havent Installed and had the thought to do it all together.

After reading all of the horror stories re the microprobe v2 and our enders, spooked me. All this has probably come about as I have been thinking of picking up the bambu x2d....

Would you;

  1. Install the hotend and not bother with microprobe?

2.Install both while its all apart and take the leap?

  1. Install both and use different firmware? Marlin, klipper?

I have a stock ender 3v2, with pi3 running octoprint and Stiffened springs.

Oh the options.....

Hey gang,

Have been trawling reddit for the best semi-budget concious NAS update.

I have an old Seagate 440 with 4x 2tb drives in RAD5.

What is the 'go to' - best bang for buck NAS for the group? or point me to the right place to check them out and read up?

Uses are file storage, downloading games/movies to it directly, VM's and docker (i think) hoping for smart integration over time. I expect that when in nerding out about what newer NAS's can do, then this could expand a lot

Happy to spend up to around $400 AUD not inclusing drives - bit flexible here

Thanks peeps
