I built two intel atom nas machines before switching to synology.

One has no linux or windows video drivers (Intel’s fault — no transcoding), and caught fire (not intel’s fault).

The other was one of the ones where the clock signal is basically a doomsday countdown timer. I had to swap it out for a warranty board for some other reason.

So, there’s no way I’d consider an N100. Other options?



In the years between the Synology and the Ugreen I've been running a mac mini from ebay which has slower copy speeds (i had to use drives connected via usb or thunderbolt) but has been very reliable and low-power.
