I’ve been on 1000/1000 for about 7 years. Still don’t see any need at all for more. I work with various cloud providers and for single thread workloads like large file transfers, you’re still not likely to encounter pipe saturation. Then there’s WiFi.

My SP offers 5Gb for $199 USD and various rates in between. No point.

This looks like a problem that would be solved cheaper with less mess by a used Lenovo Thinkstation P720, a pair of Xeon Gold 6140s, a dozen 32GB DIMMs, a 4TB NVMe, and a copy of VMware.

Why on earth do you have so many minis?

It’s also artificially restricted as an SMB server. Has been since XP SP2.

Please have the crack exe with the super erotic icon like I showed dad back in 2001.

Why? NVMe drives produce more throughput and IOPS than whole SANs 7-8 years ago.
