TerraMaster F2-423 (2023)

TerraMaster's two-bay F2-423 punches above its price with dual 2.5GbE RJ-45 ports that bond for up to 5 Gbps of network throughput, plus two USB 3.2 Gen 2 (10 Gbps) Type-A ports for fast external backups. It also includes an HDMI output, though it exposes only SSH/command-line access rather than a full graphical desktop. There is no USB-C. The cables that matter most are two Cat6 Ethernet leads for the 2.5GbE jacks; the HDMI port is a niche maintenance convenience rather than a media output.

Two-bay TerraMaster NAS with dual 2.5GbE, two USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-A ports, and an HDMI output for CLI access.
