Mobius

I don't think what you want is possible in a single chassis. One of the only half depth chassis i can think of is the Sliger CX3701. (by half depth i am assuming you mean 15" or shorter" It's 3u, can fit a mITX motherboard only and has 10 bays of storage. Every mITX mobo i can find only has one pcie slot. But even then i don't think you can find an elegant way to get enough sata ports with a mITX mobo to 10 internal drives and 14 more external drives even with hbas since i don't think broadcom makes a 16e8i hba. The only way i can think of is getting a 24 internal hba and have 14 go outside the case and 8 stay inside and use 2 mobo sata. things do change a little bit if you have space for 18" depth. The Sliger CX3702 can support mATX mobo and some of those do have multiple pcie slots letting you use 2 different hba cards. That said i still can't think of any external enclosures that'll fit the extra drives. Without depth as a factor, so used super micro stuff might work for you? TLDR: i can't think of any good options for half depth.

Should be 6.6.44

a lot of time the install errors can be fixed by remaking the installer usb. Also make sure you have secure boot disabled.

i'm thinking something similar to our smb instructions would be nice. Just a few links with write ups on how to setup rsync on different platforms.

@mill3000 simplifying this would definitely be a great boon for HexOS

glad i could help

welcome to hexos At this time the only other thing to keep in mind is that you should NOT update the underlying truenas operating system. Some functions might work and others might not however the HexOS team regards that as an unsupported use case. As far as i know there have not been any reports of docker apps breaking hexos so you should be good.

thanks for reporting back

Support will likely come no earlier than q3. Here is a link to the most up to date roadmap https://hexos.com/blog/hexos-q1-status-update Theoretically you MIGHT be able to migrate to hexos using work arounds but i can't guarantee it'll work. Personally i would still recommend waiting unless there is a reason you need to stop using unraid sooner.

@mill3000 can you take a look into this

app updates are fine however os updates will be done via hexos itself

just to double check you aren't using the password for the hexos website but rather the one from the installer right?

at this time plex and immich are still the only 2 apps with one click installs. The team is working on making it so the community and create one click installs for apps so once that comes out i imagine the amount of one click apps will skyrocket. as for apps that can be manually installed i would just google for list of docker apps. (there are a lot)

fingers crossed it works out for you.

I imagine a lot of members here would appreciate the guide.

I can ask the team whenever the next time I have a meeting with them if i remember but i don't meet with them often and it might not have been discussed yet.

This is by far the easiest solution The other methods at this time are far more of a hassle.

I do believe a subscription model will eventually available after Hexos leaves beta. but like the others say there is a 30 day no questions asked refund policy. Also i highly recommend before buying parts to build your nas, you either ask for help to build a parts list or post your parts list for someone here to double check. There are a lot of little things to consider that are usually non-factors in pc building

Not pretending to be an expert but i hear zfs is amazing and in that xda article there is a link to an article detailing why zfs is great. It might be worth googling btrfs vs zfs. I know it was a quite talked about topic before unraid added zfs support.

Glad i could help You can find new 6tb exos drives on ebay for under $100 from sellers with lots of reviews (i would still check farm data to make sure it is actually new) Cpu and ram are where i would not hesitate to buy used. If you search for ram on ebay just make sure you don't purchase ecc or server ram for this build as it is not compatible. Craigslist and facebook marketplace are also decent places to look for deals on used gear

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/BrkRyW this is my alternative sub $1000 build for you 11600 is a stronger cpu and gpu motherboard only has 1 gb ethernet but its good enough for a hdd build mobo also has 6 sata ports so you won't really need an hba until you go above that cheaper boot ssd bc you really don't need to spend much on it switched to less expensive exos drives. i don't know what they cost so little but in general they are better than ironwolf drives. added more ram since hexos likes ram switched to a dedicated nas case with a power supply that fits. we can do a lot better if you are okay with some used parts too

It has a realtek nic on the motherboard which are problematic and might not work i would highly recommend picking a motherboard without a realtek nic if you don't plan on adding say a 10gig pcie nic.

I believe the machines don't have enough RAM. A quick Google search tells me the ram isn't user upgradable because it is soldered on to the motherboard

Yes now you have a CPU with a GPU In general if there is a "f" prefix on a CPU it doesn't have a gpu.

the build in this link doesn't have a gpu in it.
