Hi Everyone,
I am a newbie with regards to FreeNAS and I have just built a NAS box, the specs are below
HP Microserver N54L
16GB ECC RAM
5 x 4TB Western Digital RED NAS Drives
16GB USB 2.0 Sandisk (FreeNAS 9.3 OS) also performed an update to the latest stable build
Potential upgrades
1 x Highpoint RocketRAID 620L SATA card (2 Ports)
2 x Kingston SSD's (1 for CACHE and 1 for LARC)
I have managed to (I think) install FreeNAS and create a volume pool for all 5 drives, consisting of ZFS RAIDZ2 leaving approximately 10.5 TB of usable space. Additionally I have created the following datasets Movies and Series including the shares of the same name for each dataset. I have shared both shares as guest just to test CIFS is working from my windows 7 PC. I am not sure if I have configure the NAS correctly but I am trying to refresh plugins but I get an error that no entries could be found.
Any idea where I am going wrong
Any advice is appreciated
Thanks
Pat
