Hi! I want to get started with self-hosting, and I'm looking for a NAS. I’d like it to be somewhat compact and capable of running TrueNAS/OpenMediaVault. I’ve found two interesting devices, but I'm not sure which one, if any, I should choose:

Asustor AS6302T - used, around $150

TerraMaster F2-212 - new, around $140

I haven’t been able to find much information about them because one is quite old and the other doesn’t seem very popular. My main question is whether I would be able to set up an external SSD drive with TrueNAS/OpenMediaVault connected via USB and run the OS from this disk.
