Did you use the Hub in any weather conditions (rain and snow)? I would like to see what my hub looks like. I think it needs new greasing due to hour long rides in heavy rains and lots of snow rides during winter. I even got drowned in water when I broke trough ice with the bike. But still runs well. Only problems were a little squealing. I think the outer ball bearing race needs grease.
@MmmmYeahSure , It would be between the two. An Alfine shifts so smooth, unlike a nexus. The red ring nexus hubs have better bearings from what I have read compare to the standard nexus and should last longer.
It is the same. The difference is the housing. On Alfine you can insall a disc brake and on the SG-8R36 you can intall Shimano's RollerBrake. You can read this in the Shimano Techdocs for the R36.
PASEN LA VOZ, NO COMPREN EN JASCO PARTES DE BICI, YA QUE TE PARAN ESTAFANDO, ME AN ECHO IR POR PARTES MAS DE UNA VEZ, Y EN LO QUE VA, YA ME ARTE, ES UNA ESTAFA, TE DICEN VIENE TODO EL JUEGO Y A LA HORA QUE VIENE, TE DICEN NO ES POR PARTES, ME E GASTADO CASI 1 000 DOLARES EN UNOS AROS, EL JUEGO COMPLETO Y AHORA QUE LO ESTOY ARMANDO NO VINO TODO
Amazing, clean, smooth, no wear products visible. I run a simple Nexus Inter 3 on my Trek Lime. At 1,000 miles, it is smoother and quieter than ever. I hope to open it up some day for inspection and see the same no-wear-out your hub displays. Nexus/Shimano is good at IGH.

Is this an Alfine?

No - 8R36. It's a 'premium' red ring model, but not an alfine.

@achrn ok, so is that better or worse than an Alfine? I've never heard of it.

Nightmarish complexity.

@deepwoodtickles They're just planetary gears. If you have a car with an automatic transmission it probably has them. :)

@ampdavolts, now I have near 2,200 miles on the inter 3. It shows no signs of wear out yet.
