Hardware and Performance / Re: HW for 1GB WAN speed, openvpn stongest encryption, IDS/IPS, squid, all of this..
« on: November 25, 2019, 12:16:39 pm »I'd run tons of things on the system, like openvpn at great speeds, suricata, squid and all other CPU intensive things + NAS function too (not sure if OPNSense has a NAS service, if not, I might consider to run it in a VM on the host and run the NAS&DLNA server part separately in another VM instance).Well,
take a look to the devices from Qotom. They offer quite a good performance for a nice price tag. You'll find many experiences from other users when you use the forum search for Qotom!
A NAS running on a firewall!? No good idea for me. I know that i.e. ipfire offer such a solution, but IMHO this is nuts! Of course you can run a FW and a NAS as vm on same hw. But a NAS IMHO should be work with raid config for the storage...
