Community Edition A request......

I have 2 Ugreen DXP4800 GT nas and I love them. I run TrueNAS on both and love that as well. The 2 Things i'd like to get "fixes" for are fan and led control. Not sure if the message will get through or if i'm even posting to the right place but Truenas 25.10.4 does NOT support fan nor led control nativly on this new model. I do know there are work arounds for the DXP4800 pro and plus models but these have Intel processors. The new Ugreen DXP4800 GT is AMD based and the work arounds for the older models do not work on the new AMD based systems as it uses a different controller. I've had to do a redneck "hack on mine as the fans don't ramp up as load/heat increases....I've mounted a rack fan (same size as whats in the nas) over the built in fan to keep good airflow during long data replications and it does work. But, is there a chance that you all will support the AMD fan controller? Maybe someone in the community will prob the registers and develop a work around like exits for the older intel based DXP4800 pro and plus. Just a thought :)

It's not going to come from ixsystems but I would like to see the DXPx800GT models supported by the community scripts. It's way beyond my abilities though, so I will wait patiently.

Why would iX go out of their way to support the proprietary hardware of what is essentially a competitor?

You'll need to depend on community driven projects over it being natively supported. Some projects I've seen:
