jaidan··on QNAP ships NAS backup software with hidden credentials
The HP Gen10Plus Microserver might do what you're after [0].

I've been running the Gen 7 since January 2013 with Ubuntu 16.04 then 20.04. It's travelled between New Zealand, Australia and South Korea multiple times. The Russian BIOS enabled hotplug and took the speed restriction off the CD-ROM SATA port.

I run a Sandisk SSD (purchased 2014) in the Cd rom bay and 3x 8GB WD Red (CMR) drives. The fourth bay I use for transferring or backing up other drives. I used Mdadm for software RAID as the "hardware RAID" needed special drivers and it was too hard at the time.

I haven't played with the Gen10Plus yet but it'll probably be the direction I head instead of a NAS. They come with Xeon processors and 4 ethernet ports!

jaidan··on Ask HN: What's the coolest YouTube channel you've found in the past month?
The Post Apocalyptic Inventor (No it's not that prepper!)

This German gentleman rescues broken stuff from the scrap yard and repairs it. On this video [0] he upgrades a basic welder to increase the duty cycle. I specifically like the way he describes his upgrades using diagrams and basic explanations. Link to his channel at [1].

jaidan··on I Still Use RSS
I never experienced Yahoo Pipes however, I looked at some videos on YouTube and it appears to be similar to Node-Red. It may not be as intuitive but it looks like it may provide a similar experience.

Possible example: https://dannysu.com/2016/12/29/huginn-to-node-red/

There are also a few RSS discussions in the Node-Red forum: https://discourse.nodered.org/
