Thank you for the quality assurance, you may have saved my install.

You could get something like a 5-bay HDD enclosure that connects to the mini pc via usb, but while that’s very clean it also might be slow and/or expensive. Alternatively you could get an NVMe to 5-port sata adapter and cobble together some kind of Frankenstein pc, which is probably cheaper and maybe faster, but is certainly a hack-ier solution and who knows what the reliability is like with them. I’m sure it’ll be a fun project regardless of what you go with.

I do indeed use linux, on an unused laptop hidden away in my tv cabinet. I’m fairly confident it’s not spying on me… but you never know.

Just use a hdmi input?

There’s not really a fix for something like that, it’s more about learning to work with it

Oh man, I played that Gorillaz Geep game so much in '07, time to revisit it methinks

Some people are convinced that it’s the price of freedom
