Yes, for me the basic update of TrueNAS went through without any issue. Holding off on updating any of the app scripts until I get confirmation that there is a safe way to move from TrueNAS installed apps to HexOS curated ones.

To be clear, these apps weren't installed via your curated versions. They were installed in TrueNAS. Is it still safe to click Update now?

So, following the update is it now safe to click the update button below? I'd really like to get a better idea of what is going to happen if I do.

Oh wow! I could understand the mounts (if different than the default locations). The rest like API keys are a bit confusing unless you weren't able to reconnect to your previous database. It would be nice if the interface perhaps showed a comparison between what the existing configuration is and what the updated one looks like so that changes could be minimised before updating. That way, if I have to move a mount manually before the upgrade I would do that so that once the update is done everything works exactly as before I switch to the curated version.

So my update to 25.10.1 - Goldeye was uneventful with no errors reported and all apps and VMs seeming to function perfectly. Great job guys! Now in the interface I see this alert for a few apps: If I click the update now button I then have this warning: I was wondering if this was the way to migrate from TrueNAS installed apps to curated ones? Is the process safe?

It's here!!! https://forums.truenas.com/t/truenas-25-10-1-is-now-available/60830. Can't wait until this is integrated into HexOS!

Love the new curated apps! As I have many of these apps already from the TrueNAS side, would there be plans to allow migration to the curated ones?

Just sharing some good news — my update went smoothly, and all apps, VMs, and backups are running normally under Fangtooth.

Looks like we have 25.10 in the wild (https://forums.truenas.com/t/truenas-25-10-0-is-now-available/57343), hope we can see a HexOS update based on this soon...

As others have stated the hardware offering from Synology has fallen behind its competitors. That and the Hard Drive and SSD Lock In issue is one of the main reasons I started looking for alternatives at the start of this year when I was looking to upgrade my old DS916+. Thankfully this very forum turned me onto the AOOSTAR WTR MAX. Comparing the CPU performance against the current offering from Synology is not even close but here it is: AMD Ryzen Embedded V1500B vs Ryzen 7 PRO 8845HS. This translates to amazing performance gains to the point where I can even comfortably run an emulated DS925+ with XPEnology as a VM in TrueNAS without skipping a beat. I do agree that the Synology software does have a slight edge but I expect projects like HexOS to quickly close that gap. For those interested this was my journey.

Thanks for the update. I have a bugfix regarding AMD GPUs that only recently got merged into 25.10. When we move from the current 25.10-RC.1 to release status, how long after this date would we expect to be able to upgrade to it within HexOS?

I’ve changed the default port numbers on my TrueNAS web server to free up ports 80 and 443 for other services. However, from the HexOS portal, it still tries to connect using the standard ports when interacting with TrueNAS. For example, if I try to edit an app’s configuration or launch the TrueNAS configuration from the portal, I don’t get the correct interface. It would be great if the portal could detect the configured port numbers via the API, or allow these to be set manually in the HexOS settings.

It would be useful in the dashboard if I could see a snapshot of users connected to services like SMB, NFS.

Is there a listing of default folder names that the items in locations will match with? I'd like to create folders in my TrueNAS to match.

Thanks for the heads-up. From what I understand, unlike a typical Synology setup, TrueNAS doesn’t use SSDs for caching by default — instead, it relies entirely on RAM. So, if I want better performance, especially for read/write speeds, I should focus on adding more RAM. Is that correct? One of my intended use cases is running Docker containers with databases. If I install M.2 SSDs, would it be possible to combine them with my existing CMR HDDs in a way that prioritizes SSDs for high-performance data, like database workloads? Ideally, I'm hoping this can be handled automatically — does HexOS support that kind of tiered storage behavior?
