Hi all,
I currently have a TrueNAS Core build in an old computer but I can’t get it to boot. I’m going to be upgrading the motherboard, PSU, CPU & Memory. How can I do this since I can’t make a backup of the config settings? I’m not going to be upgrading the HDD’s or the SSD yet.
TROUBLESHOOTING THAT I’VE TRIED SO FAR:
I’m not even getting the bios to boot up but the HDD’s, fans, etc power up. I’ve tried different monitors and different VGA cables. I’ve changed the CMOS battery on the motherboard. I’ve reseated the RAM. I’ve unplugged every cable including the power supply and held the power button down for 20 seconds. Nothing gets it to boot up. I was still curious if it was a display issue so I checked my router and it is not connected to the network. Basically NOTHING shows up on the monitor.
CURRENT BUILD:
Motherboard: Dell E93839 KA0121
PSU: AcBel HBA008-ZA1GT 350W
CPU: Intel Core i5-2500
Memory: 16GB (4 x 4GB Micron 1600Mhz PC3-12800U 1.5v)
OS Storage: Inland Professional 120GB SATA SSD
Data Storage: 5 x 8TB Toshiba Performance X300 7200RPM SATA HDD
SATA Controller: Ubit PCIe x 1 to 4 Port SATA III 6Gbps.
PLANNED UPGRADES:
Motherboard: ASUS ROG Strix B-660i Gaming Wifi
PSU: Corsair SF600, 600W, SFX, 80+ Platinum Certified, Fully Modular
CPU: Intel Core i7-12700K
Memory: 64GB (2 x 32GB Kingston Fury Beast DDR5 4800MT
SATA Controller: ORICO M.2 PCIe M Key to 6 x SATA 6Gbps adapter card
