Anyone here with a Gold IRA and Custodian experience, particularly with Palladium?

I've been holding a significant chunk of my retirement savings in a Gold IRA for a few years now, primarily physical gold and some silver, as a hedge against inflation and just general market volatility. I'm based in Philly and my portfolio is somewhere between $500k-$1M, so this is a serious part of my long-term strategy for wealth preservation. As a lawyer, I'm all about due diligence, and I’ve been pretty happy with my current setup, but I’m always looking to optimize.
Lately, I've been considering diversifying into palladium within my IRA. The industrial demand and dwindling supply argument is pretty compelling, and I like the idea of further spreading my risk beyond just gold and silver. Problem is, my current custodian, who has been fine for gold, doesn't seem to have the most robust offerings or competitive fees when it comes to palladium. I’m finding the information a bit scattered and honestly, it's making me a little antsy trying to figure out the best move without potentially incurring a bunch of transfer fees or high storage costs.
So, I’m putting it out there to this community: Does anyone have direct experience with adding palladium to their Gold IRA? More importantly, can anyone recommend a custodian they've used for palladium specifically that they were truly happy with? I'm talking about good transparency on fees, reliable storage options, and good customer service. I'm really trying to avoid any nasty surprises down the line. I'd love to hear about any pitfalls you experienced or things you wished you knew beforehand. Thanks in advance for any insights!
