It'll be nice if the team is able to do that, i just imagine it's not a high priority until majority of the hexos specific features are implemented. The hexos team is smaller than i had expected too. It was a team of 2 that grew to 5 around the time of beta launch with more ppl slowly being onboarded

it used to not be so annoying but the one drive sync feature got depreciated a year-ish ago google drive shouldn't be so bad

ah i didnt realize onedrive sync became such a pain. here is a link to a couple work arounds https://www.truenas.com/community/threads/truenas-scale-23-10-0-1-cloudsync-with-microsoft-onedrive.114315/

i would just setup sync then turn sync off after the files have finished transferring the first time

These updates will no doubt come to hexos as well but at this time there probably won't be any hexos update just to bring hexos to the same truenas version. I'm sure when a hexos update is ready they will move to newer version of truenas

At the moment there have not been huge changes made to HexOS yet. This is the only update we have gotten so far The dev team is still fairly small but they are growing. Im sure they will make bigger updates sooner or later. The dev team hasn't been able to give us expected dates for updates either since they can't give us concrete dates yet.

ssd nas is the dream. Im trying to find a way to stick my nas into like a closet because of hdd are so loud.

@jamaican.mekrazy that's a great collection of media but i didn't think you should stop just here. I think i have around 2000 shows and a few hundred movies and i only think about doubling it lol

all good, i would have probably referred you to @Theo anyways since he seems super knowledgable about plex.

the update notification is a known bug. essentially there is an update for the underlying truenas system. at this time the hexos team has stated that you should not update and ignore the notification.

I imagine the 8845hs will be able to brute force at least one stream no issue.

i have nothing to cite for my answer but i imagine hexos does things the same way as scale

any chance you created a single drive pool using truenas? Doing that currently breaks hexos. Also i would email hexos to request a refund using the contact us page at the bottom of the website

a couple other users reported having plex show up as indirect streaming and force transcoding? any chance you see the indirect when looking at active streams on your dashboard?

sorry im not too familiar with transmission so i can't help you check if that feature is supported

you would generally use the same app you torrent with (ie. qbitorrent) torrents usually don't have servers since they are peer to peer sharing. If you want to post it on a site you would need to add their trackers to your torrent.

@Dylan whoops i meant doesn't support it after a concussion a few years ago, the words i think in my head does not adequately get transmitted to my fingers good catch

Hexos doesn't support raid 5 or raid 6 They have similar layouts called raid z1 and z2 respectively. Z1 sets sides 1 drive of storage for parity and z2 sets aside 2 drives of storage for parity. There is also raid mirror which is limited to 2 drives. My suggestion is always decide if you want 1 or 2 drives of parity first. If you want 1 drive of parity, buy the largest 3 hdds that make financial sense for you. If you want 2 drive of parity, buy the largest 4 hdds that make financial sense for you. This is so you can expand your pool later if you want to The more hdds you have the more you'll end up paying in electricity costs in the long run and it does add up. Plus there is a limit to have many drive bays we have access to. Final note raid z2 needs to be configured in truenas but should not cause issues in hexos

When doing things with 1 license you would have to mostly do stuff on truenas for the side without a license. That said at this time HexOS does not support importing of existing pools. So you cannot make a temp boot drive and later replace it with a different one. Importing pools is a feature that will eventually be supported. It might be possible if you clone your temp boot drive on to your permanent boot drive but I've heard some users not be able to get it to work Hexos is pretty good with hardware changes that is not the boot drive

you're welcome, glad i could help

Yes it is supported I believe your system should have no issues running a single vm but adding some more ram would no hurt. at this moment hexos requires a minimum of 2 drives per pool but in a future update single drive pools will be supported. i don't know how long itll take for support to arrive but waiting for support is your most cost effective option personally i always advocate for fewer but larger drives to save on power costs (it really adds up) but doing your 2 pool method will be more cost effective This is an issue a lot of us have. The easiest solution is having 2 machines. If you have another windows machine i would just plug the drives into that and transfer the data over one step at a time The other solution is renting cloud storage for a month but for that amount of storage, not only is it expensive but itll take a long time uploading and downloading the data. the arr stack has a backup function but i can't attest to how well it works myself. also not sure how well plex migration works but they have a support page for it https://support.plex.tv/articles/201370363-move-an-install-to-another-system/ Make sure any drives you plan to use with hexos are not smr drives. CMR drives are more ideal.

try this sometimes you just need to wipe the drive in truenas

Hexos is indeed your os but you also have the option to have your main OS be proxmox with a hexos vm inside of it. proxmox is an os that in general works better with vms. I do hope for a day everyone has a microcenter accessible to them.

for anyone that is looking into it i believe the post in question is this one which was meant to go into this topic Jpadgett did repost the comment in the correct topic

I would probably swap out the case for a cheaper one like the cooler Master n400 or their qube 500 and then either pocket the savings or use it for more RAM. Also consider spending a $5 more on a thermalright peerless assassin 120 se since it's a better performing and quieter cooler. The off chance you live near a microcenter they have a $400 12900k + mobo + 32gb ram bundle or a $280 12700k bundle but with only 16gb ram
