Okay, for any future people who find this. The answer is go into your BIOS and check the Storage pane, chances are it's set to RAID, instead of AHCI. I found the answer on a reddit post with someone trying to install true nas and had the same problem.

I'm not gonna complain, it could be worse, at least starlink has a phone app that is somehow usefull... every other app from Mexico ISP are just basically to pay the service and a chatbot to place a visit from a technician.

After powercycling everything (router, antena, server, PC, laptops, main panel, instant heater and water service) turned out to be the Starlink Router (Gen 2) but it had to be JUST the router, doing it along the antena didn't do anything. Thankfully I do not have to learn networking and acronyms the whole weekend to fix this.

Hey, Looks like a proper built in my eyes, with a lot of potential to grow as you intend to do. Just some remarks; currently RaidZ2 is not supported by Hexos, Hexos will always create a RaidZ1. You can manually create a RaidZ2 pool in Truenas but this might have unforeseen impacts and consequences. You might want to consider buying a second boot drive and having the boot drives running as a mirror. This can save you a lot of headaches in case the boot drive fails, because right now, it's not possible to import pools into Hexos, meaning if the drive dies you cannot reinstall Hexos, because it will wipe your drives and even if pool import is supported in the future, it might still be worth the consideration, especially since you are already going full server build anyway.

I don't have any experience with ZFS personally, but my understanding based on reading is that ZFS wants to aggressively cache as many files in memory as possible. It also keeps checksums for files in memory. The TrueNAS community recommends 1 GB of ECC memory per 1 TB of data stored.

Home Assistant, Tailscale. It would be super cool if there was a one-click install for game servers as well.

What about Plex (pass) Server?

Second on Tailscale and HA!

No, you cannot change from a RaidZ1 to a RaidZ2, this is defined once during the creation of the pool, but changing it requires to destroy and recreate the pool with RaidZ2, which will wipe all the data from the disks. If you want to have a RaidZ2 you either need to wait until Hexos supports it or create it manually in truenas and live with possible side effects in Hexos or ditch Hexos for the time being and switch to a truenas installation and migrate back to Hexos once pool migration because available some time after version 1.0.
