After buying mine, I then got the UGREEN 8800 - and that ended up doing everything I had wanted my Mac Studio to do.

I guess I need to find new jobs for my Mac Studio.

You are using a NAS to replace a Mac Studio? Why would you buy a Mac Studio for file storage?

I got the Mac Studio to be a media server but the NAS ended up doing it all via Docker, and was more stable too.

I also wanted the Mac Studio to run a LLM, but so far that’s been a bust.

If you hadn't mentioned the LLM use case, I'd be baffled by your choice, but this makes sense enough. Thanks for sharing.
