    Hello from the US - Have been lurking a while, finally ready to share!

    Hello from the US, I have been a lurker on here for the past year (2018) or so after building my system. I'm still in awe that I have my own server. I'm just an enthusiast. Not as hardcore as those who have built their systems with rack mounts (no room for that quite yest unfortunately. SO I...

    Hi FreeNAS Forum!

    Hi I'm Dominik. I have been using FreeNAS for approximately two years now for basic file sharing and syncronisation. I plan to use the FreeNAS system as a media server in the future. I think it was finally time to join the Forum. dondon28

    Introduction

    Hi all, First time building a FreeNAS and seems to be working beautifully. To be honest, half the reason I did it was that I saw how much more expansive the support and forums for it were as opposed to the headache inducing Netgear ReadyNAS I'm coming from! Either way, the intro message said...

    Hi from Belgium - this is my system

    Hello, My name is Mario, 24 y.o. Windows / .NET developer from Belgium. I've been wanting a NAS for a long time, and now based upon recommendations I've chosen FreeNAS to finally power my first system. I'm a true DIY'er at least when it comes to everything related to IT. Buying something like a...

    Salutations!!!

    Hi, I am new to the FreeNAS community. I am a tinkerer by heart and a duck by night. I find opensource very interesting, there is always something that gets better or something new to try, which kind of fits my type of mindset. Unfortunately i am running into problems trying to fix an...

    Best choice ever

    Hi Everyone I am new to FreeNAS and have up until now relied on old synology NAS hardware that I could buy on the Danish version of Ebay (yes I have been a cheapskate). Recently my Synology DS409+ powered off on me and I were working on finding a way to get it alive again for a couple of weeks...

    New-ish to FreeNAS

    Call me Ray-Ray! Everyone does ;) I say that I'm new-ish to FreeNAS as I've dabbled with it before about a year or so ago but realized that the system that I was running on was significantly under-powered and transcoding in Plex was non-existent. But I'm jumping ahead, lets go back to the...

    Introduction: Monkey_Demon

    Hi, After using a Netgear ReadyNAS Pro for several years, I have to migrate to another system. This is because Plex is one of the main reasons I have a NAS, and Plex no longer supports the ReadyNAS. Some people have kludged the ReadyNAS system to make it run Netgear's newer operating system...
