XigmaNAS user here… Only downside to that is that you will only find out the USB drive is bad when rebooting (happened to me once). But keeping good backups for the configuration makes recovering a 5 min thing.

Brazil uses WhatsApp for everything, including doctor appointments, filling prescriptions, banking, take out orders… I mean, really everything…

I have a telescope mount and an AV processor that require Windows 10, wine won’t work with either one. The Windows was stripped down using Atlas though. I only boot it once every few months and I get no pop ups or notifications at all, it’s perfect.
