Probably I will get slaughtered for this, but I have been a bit disapointed with FreeNAS.
Why, 3 main reasons:
1) You need to know Linux to do a lot of stuff.
2) I want to backup all my data on FreeNAS to a NTFS USB drive and I only found Shell linux commands to do this.
3) Not able to join to an Active Directory domain if the domain server resides on a different subnet as where the FreeNAS box resides (btw. I was able to do this with an earlier version, prior to 9.3).
At the moment I am backing up all my data to a NTFS USB drive inorder to rebuild my FreeNAS box back in to a Windows box. If somebody can provide me with simple solutions to do the above, I might change my mind and stay with FreeNAS.
