I’m looking for an off-the-shelf 4 or 6 bay NAS with upgradeable RAM that runs TrueNAS (for ZFS). The QNAP TS-664 looked very nice, but the price of the 4G version (with 2 RAM slots) is currently 25% more than the 8G version (with soldered RAM). I’d like to have 16 or better 32GB of RAM.

Do you have any recommendations?

    Thanks, i found Wolfgang’s video extremly useful and now decided to build one myself. The Topton N5105 looks really good with its 6 sata ports. Just need to decide if i get the bigger Fractal Node 304 or the smaller (but nicer) Jonsbo N1 case.

    The whole project is a bit of a stretch between low power, low noise (living room) and enough cpu/ram for good zfs performance.
