Oooh nice- I have one of these too, but haven’t put in faster Ethernet yet. I’m gonna wait until all my network equipment gets a bump first.

The card you put in- is it the one that’s paired with the ssd cache card or something else?

[–] Sixtyforce@sh.itjust.works 3 points 3 days ago (1 children)

SSD cache wouldn't be useful I think. I'm under the impression at least I wouldn't see any faster transfer speeds, since the cache is really only effective for accessing the same small amount of data repeatedly like a web server. I'm rarely if ever doing that. So I saved some money and went to github:

I'm using a UGREEN USB adapter to get 2.5. Almost zero issues, except I have make sure to update the driver before DSM updates. I've had instability the one time I updated DSM first.

I’m on the same page with you about cache. Thanks for the tip though, I’m gonna look into this!!
