does that drive bay support 22tb drives? I Would like to think it does. would be nice.
I don't have that big drives, but I am curious it's just SATA multiplier, will drive size matter?
SATA multipliers may cause issues, size shouldn't.
MT7621 How much is considered cheap?
Favourite device is currently an Intel E810-DA4 installed in a thin client PC.
With a gigabit port onboard and 4x25G ports on the Intel NIC and acceleration on the bridge it works pretty well as a managed 10/25G home lab device.
I compiled kmod-ice to support the Intel NIC.

Feb 2024: MR90X is currently back available in 2 online shops in Germany
solid Mediatek Filogic 830 stuff
- 100-120€, so not that much qualified for the favorite cheap device thread.
- not fully enthusiast thread either, as its no dual 5Ghz and no 6Ghz and only 3 LANs and no USB, but for me it has impressive Wifi distance throughput and Filogic does not at all suck from my perspective.
(more like favorite actually available in Germany device, but we dont have that as category 
).

No official openwrt support - not recommended for now

It comes with openwrt preinstalled on the mmc. I've performed package updates without issues and the 2.5G port really works as expected. Currently I have this Firmware Version OpenWrt 23.05.0 r23497-6637af95aa / LuCI openwrt-23.05 branch git-23.306.39416-c86c256
Anything I'm missing or that I should pay attention during this testing phase?
It's FriendlyWrt, not OpenWrt.

If I'm not mistaken, the current version after system updates changed to openwrt as it is shown in my previous reply. I remember it used to say frendlywrt but that's not the case now.
There is no official OpenWrt build for this platform now, no matter what name they changed it's still unofficial.
And.....I also own this R6S, so I'm pretty sure about that.

why? what the difference?
As frollic said I posted this in the other thread but I won't be getting it. They have Realtek NICs. Would be ok for say emulation but as a OpenWRT device? Nope.
Those Realtek NICs are supported by Openwrt.
There's however a quirk that needs to be enabled in the kernel, or they'll run at ~10mbit.
Haven't checked if the fix is in stable, or snapshot only.
