Thanks to this community I’ve learned and I’m feeling inspired. I’ve loved having an NAS for the last few years, but it’s woefully under powered for what I’m using it for these days.
So I’ve ordered some basic PC parts, gonna build a basic setup using an old CPU I got lying about and try the NAS OS I saw talked about on here recently.
TrueNAS looks like a good option with only slight fears it’ll go down the well known path to the dark side like so many free options before.
In any event, I’m looking forward to adding Nextcloud and Jellyfin, to trying out Docker and generally having more control over things.
Thanks again to you all for informing and inspiring.
I’ll be back if I get questions!
I just have my downloader trigger a scan at completion.
I have a few proxmox clusters going, combining it all wouldn’t be practical. This way my servers (tiny/mini/micros I’ve repurposed) stay small with decent sized ssd’s, big storage in 2 NAS’s, and a third for backups.
