TrueNAS and Other Custom NAS Builds

[Yomiro]

I am very tempted to upgrade my NAS to TrueNAS. Very interesting read. I have had my Microserver NAS running Ubuntu for over 10 years. Most of the daemon/services I run have been migrated to dockers/snaps or flatpacks. So technically I don't need the "OS" layer anymore.

The features of Dragonfish are so nice. After using Datadomain a few years back I love dedupe feature. Anybody tested it?

… I love dedupe feature. Anybody tested it?

I wanted to, but @etorix prohibited it. Not literally, but through his powers of dissuasion!

You can find the reasoning earlier in this thread.
