We know that you are using F4-210 TOS 4.2.x.
We will keep an eye out for and avoid possible similar problems in future and other TOS releases.

This is an unknown issue that we still need to verify.

Not really. You mentioned it in a previous post. :D
(and it is something support people like to know so they don't have to read every previous post to find out.)

Generally, for any piece of tech, take a quick look on Ebay and see which models are being sold off 'used'. They are, inevitably, the unpopular ones or the ones that have been superceded or are just relatively 'old tech'.

They literally just checked your post history to find that info :roll: & you didn't correct them if that's changed since those previous posts.

You bought the cheapest model from TerraMaster & likely just as realtek dropped support for its SoC, so with the worst timing.

If you'd put the same effort you are doing so now, by making inquiries, you'd likely have bought an ×86/×64 based NAS with wider and even alternate support options, so you weren't stuck.

“Better manufacturer” is only going to hold true that's followed through with support and standing behind their product(s).

None of these NAS manufacturers put much attention into their entry level consumer offerings; it's their higher models or commercial products into which they actually throw resources.

bulk storage usage. nothing else. that all it used for. this was in covid times to.
but it does seem this model had a issue and they simple stop manf after og stock was made.
