  1. This is just a regular USB disk enclosure, there’s nothing special about it’s construction that would limit it’s usage with non-TerraMaster hardware.
    Inside are two daisy-chained Realtek RTS5420 4-port USB 3.x Gen2 Hubs with six Asmedia ASM1053E USB to SATA bridges, one for each slot.
    The build quality of this box is just insane. It’s almost all metal. It’s heavy even without the drives. And with all 6 drives installed it weighs like a brick. I’d say for the build quality alone it is worth the price. It feels more like an industrial piece of gear than something made for home use.
    Sadly, don’t have a 10gpbs capable port on my home server (nor free slots to install one) to test the full throughput.

    1. The Terramaster D6-320 is a USB 3.2 Direct Attached Storage (DAS) device that can be used with any operating system that supports USB storage. This includes Proxmox VM running TrueNAS, as long as the VM can see and access USB devices.

      However, keep in mind that DAS devices are designed to be directly connected to a single host, so if you plan to use it with multiple hosts simultaneously, you may encounter some issues. Additionally, if you plan to use it with a virtual machine, you may need to configure the VM to pass through the USB device to the guest OS.
