Mobius

I would skip the gpu unless you have any workloads that need a gpu or if you think the igpu is adequate for handbrake. Gpu is gonna be adding a non negligible amount of power consumption. On a 24/7 idle 6700xt at my admittedly high electricity rates it would cost me north of $40 a year

i mean the bigger problem would likely being any future troubleshooting. We won't be able to tell if any bugs will be caused by it especially since hexos beta is pretty finicky with what it wants and going around that via truenas causes mild to severe bugs

Yeah seems like for anyone with multi drive usb enclosures only one drive gets shown. That said in general usb drives are not recommended

just make sure it is not realtek since they have a bad reputation with support for certain realtek nics being straight up disabled in truenas for causing issues

You can try making a z2 pool in truenas ui but it is possible things like one click apps will break if you do like it does for mixed size pools

this is great addition. Being able to tell others with issues that the servers are currently down with certainty will def help.

you are welcome. if you want so save some money you can even go with like a used 8500t and compatible mobo from ebay which would be ~$100

seems like it is powered by a realtek rtl8156. There is a driver issue with that realtek ethernet adapter and iscusi so the truenas team optted to disable support for it. You can turn it back on via tunables (i have no idea how), someone else mentioned that installing the new updated drivers via command line might fix it too (but i also dunno how to do that)

yeah your 12600 is more than good enough for plex/jellyfin along with the rest of the thigns you mentioned and you don't need a Dgpu for those tasks as the Igpu in the 12600 is plenty adequate

had no idea it had addons let alone so many of them

this alone will make the hexos worth it over truenas for me, with all the other QoL stuff being the cherry on top.

defintely their own section in the forum. However a shoutout with an article would not be something i'm opposed to. One of the sites i used to frequent gave out a giftcard every month to someone that made a new quality tutorial they liked. I'm not saying monetary rewards are required but i think even a monthly achievement being given out to someone would greatly incentivize making tutorials

Limited access sub users would be nice feature to add down the road. I been spending too much time on these forums and i think this is the first time i've seen it brought up. I don't think the team has made any comments on it

Those are defintely things many of us have expressed wanting. I'm hopeful the Hexos team knows and are working on it for us.

I think you can do this with nextcloud but you would need to do some extra effort to make it work. check out this reddit post with some more information

You would be able to access your files via smb not ftp. Top level folders would not be able to be deleted from smb but will be able to be deleted in hexos ui. You can delete photos folder if you so felt like it. I imagine once 1.0 rolls out it would not cause any issues but beta hexos likes to freak out when thigns are different from what it expects. I can't say for certain it will or won't freak out without trying it tho.

wow what a weird little drive. It has a sata data port on it but no sata power port. I wonder if sata data carries a bit of power too?

My old drives are still in my das. I was really hoping to just plug my das into my server for extra storage for less important things. Fingers crossed it'll work

I completely agree they are really fun when they work, i drove around a friend's HI5 and the instant torque was a lot of fun

I can't see myself ever purchasing a hyundai/kia. They make cars with great specs for the price but i don't trust them to make a lasting car. They sold cars with the notorious theta 2 for years and needed to have a class action lawsuit filed against them for warranties to start being honored. friend of mine had his engine blow up at 49k miles and he babied that car. credit where it is due after 2 months or so he got either a new or refub engine for free after about 2 months under warranty. i hope things work out for you because being without a new car for so long no doubt has to be super frustrating

i have a mesh router at home that is hard wired but it might be time for me to get another node that won't be wired. but rather using wireless backhaul. maybe that will work better than a cheap extender. Wifi support would have been a game changer for me. leaving the server in a corner far away from everyone so it doesn't make noise that bothers anyone would have been fantastic that is most ideal

If i see them i'll for sure try to add them to this thread

There are some great tutorials already Like this or this It would be great if there was a dedicated tutorial section so these don't get hidden. No doubt more tutorials are gonna be incoming as more of us use hexos so itll be great if there is a dedicated spot for them

single drive pools is a feature that will eventually be supported. Jonp is very aware of our frustration.

pool migration is defintely on the roadmap but i don't know if the team confirmed its coming with 1.0
