A local audio forum raves about the new QNAP fanless NAS HS-453DX:

This is not an endorsement, and we do not have it for testing. This is just an FYI. An audio review site from Taiwan tested MinimServer on it so I do not expect any major compatibility problem.

In addition to being fanless, which I believe is very important, it supports a hybrid HDD + SSD structure (two SATA 3.5-inch drive bays and two M.2 2280 SATA SSD slots), and dual network ports (one is 10Gb, the other is a Gigabit Ethernet).

*It* looks quite pretty (photo stolen from another forum):

Provided it's compatible with the size of SSD I'd like to install, I'd like to try one of these with my Lumin A1.

looks like it takes all storage disk form factors except the 1.8" size... 2 drives that take 3.5" HDD, 2.5" HDD or 2.5" SSD. it also has 2 internal S.2 SSD slots for caching [not sure if these drives can also be used for storage].

fanless - and paired with your choice of LPS - it should also be very quiet.
