      I ended up trying a fresh install again today, and it seems like the repo is back online, everything seems to be working as expected, including reboots.

      Thanks @stephenw10 for all your help.

        Great, Yes there was a backend issue last night. Should be fixed now though. 👍

            Thanks @JonathanLee, that's good to know, hoping to get at least another 4 years out of the 6100

              @stephenw10 Thanks for letting me know there were backend issue, I think it would be helpful if Netgate posted an announcement when there are issues, maybe some details, and an ETA to restore service.

              It would save a little headache for some of us.

                Hello, could you please provide link for SSD to purchase. King spec seems to be 2242 and I believe we need 2280 b+m key. Which I’m not able to find anywhere. Appreciate if someone can post the links to purchase the ssd. I have 6100. I’m afraid it can fail anytime and it’s not max. Not sure which SSD WORKS.

                  @supriya 2242 will fit in a 6100. That's what I have myself. I just bought another one today to use in a 4100 with a dead eMMC...

                      @supriya I can also confirm that the 2242 that @luckman212 linked to, is the same one I've been using since this post, no problems at all so far.

                        @tariqali thank you for the confirmation. Did you guys used heat sinks ? Or it is fine without it?

                          @supriya I didn't use a heatsink, and don't believe one is needed for this part.

                            @supriya It actually comes with a thin heatsink stickied on one side, I think it's copper.

                            I actually peeled it off initially because I was going to add a heatsink and realized that what the sticker was.
