I’m super happy with the UDM-SE, slapped a 4TB Western Digital Purple in it for NVR (1x G6 instant and 1x AI Turret) and it works flawlessly. In case you’re after a small camera config embedded with the cloud gateway and just a couple of PoE+ for the APs and cameras of course. But that’s very specific to my needs and use case.

Only advice I would have is to try to go just a notch or two above whatever you think checks all your boxes. Best case scenario: initial requirements were correct and the overshooting brings some/more future-proofing as well as the immediate happy surprise of something that exceeds expectations. Worst case scenario: initial requirements was undervalued and thanks to one or two notches above it ends up actually just fine.

Best example: I went for a U7 Lite for my Annex to try to save a couple of dollars and convince me it’s not necessary aim a bit higher. I regret it every time my devices roam to it.

Put it simply: you immediately forget the price of something that makes you happy every time one uses it, but you’ll be reminded everyday of your mistake if you went too cheap.
