You might want to look at snapraid. I've recently overhauled my own NAS and love it. It is snapshot based (so not perfect safety) but it is highly configurable and provides parity and scrubbing for corruption even with a JBOD array.

The only one that didn't die because of my own fault (two externals and a laptop one sigh), was one of the infamous IBM/Hitachi Deathstars.
That's not on Nvidia but the fault of Google tho (they use stock Android TV) you can just use another launcher and set it to auto start ( not like the Fire Stick where they barred that option with updates sigh).
I use Syncthing to automatically keep the database up to date and usable on all of my devices. Autotype on PC is such a nice feature I wouldn't want to miss (and it increases security on top of that).
That might be a hot take.
And of course they won't compete over which service provides the better app\features\catalogue but will try the same exclusivity game the video streaming platforms started... No thanks!
Voice - Audio book player Minimalistic audio book player that supports folders with ".nomedia". Great if you want to keep your audio books and music library separated.
With Firefox on mobile I can use my personal uBlock filter list to deshitify the search results. That alone makes it superior to Revanced for me (still use it from time to time, but every time I search for something I feel the urge to puke).
At the beginning the launcher-manager acted a bit weird (started FLauncher on every home button press) but a reboot with power off did solve that. Now the launcher starts with boot and stays. Ever since I've never had issues. I use an external USB DAC to feed my vintage HiFi tho.
You gain a clean interface a Unsplash wallpaper selector and a nice screensaver (galaxy generator rocks) :)
My guess would be Google. When the first banner carousel came and users complained Nvidia told us they used the stock launcher, we should complain to Google, they don't care and we're free to use another launcher (still do ever since and they never tried to block that).
And then everything comes in separate packages with different parcel services anyway... Amazon really has become shit.
Mine was a first generation one and as it was dying the first articles popped up about how bad they and the following generation were failing. Didn't bother with warranty... wasn't fond of gambling with the failure rates. Irony was that I named the drive Deathstar when I got it (I have the long standing tradition naming my drives after space ships).
Gonna remember that for the next drive failure. Isn't condensation a problem with that trick?
