So I have a ts-653a qnap six bay nas that is having a harder and harder time with each update so I think it is time to give it a easier job and just be used for backups. I have enough puter parts laying about to put together a decent home built nas that will have 8 12 to seagate nas drives plus a nmve drive for the os. It will have a core i5 4 core cpu running 32gb of memory. This by far would be a beast compared to my gap that has a quad core celeron and 16 gb of memory. My only issue is setting up the drives for raid and then configuring is si for my home esxi lab (I’ve tried truenas before and it wasn’t successful). Does anyone know of any really good walk through on setting up Truenas from beginning to end?
