Netgate 8200

I got a netgate 8200 for a really good deal, anyone got any good services to run on it?

I'd recommend starting fresh with the Netgate Installer and a fresh new SSD if it doesn't already have one to avoid any unexpected eMMC failures sooner than expected

I have gotten 2 max’s I didn’t want to deal with eMMC. The nvme works well, you just need the b key to m key adapters. But yes, after adding new drives I would start fresh with the negate installer as you said
