Hi everyone!
I'm having some trouble with OMV right now, so I was evaluating to use FreeNAS over OMV.
Before do that I want to be sure
1) my hardware in enough to run everything
2) that it can do everything I need
I have an intel pentium G4400 with 8GB of ram. My motherboard is an Asrock H170M Pro4s. I need to manage 2 RAID1 (ZFS Mirror), one of 4TB and one of 6TB. Right now OMV is running on a 16GB USB key, not sure if FreeNAS can run on USB Key
Currently this is what I'm doing with my NAS
- plex: this is the most important thing, I want plex to run without problem. It will stream mostly to 1 full HD TV at time, but I will buy a 4k TV sooner or later;
- autoshutdown: it monitors things like cpu, download/upload, reachable IP. If the conditions are right the NAS will sleep;
- auto wake up: it will automatically wake up at set hour;
- Deluge: I'm using Deluge over every other bittorrent client because it has a great schedule;
- Sonarr: no need to explain I guess;,
- Also I would like to manage both mirrors as a unique file system. On OMV I can do that with Mergefs, is it possible to do that on FreeNAS?
Thanks to everyone that will help me!
