I have the same issue. HexOs shows my 10 gbe NIC as 5 gbe.

Thank you for this guide. I was able to install HexOs in UTM on a M3.

FYI. An update from Robbie on Nascompares https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ybOVCqDSLVg

I updated my system to 24.10.2.2. I did some first checks, but until now HexOs seems to run without any issues.

Can you make a screenshot of your VM hardware tab?

@freid, please keep us updated. You are one of the first who can play with the WTR MAX! I am really curious about your experiences with this device.

It's not recommended to run TrueNas updtaes since it can break HexOs.

balenaEtcher works for me in UEFI mode

I noticed also this pattern.

A backup of the Truenas config file is always a good idea. What you could consider is to buy two 128 GB sata SSDs and use them as OS mirror. You can buy a TLC sata 128 gb SSD for approx. 10 to 15 euros. I expect the $ price will be the same. You have a very nice system with pretty good components. I would spend the extra $30,- Just my 2 cents

both HexOs and Truenas are on the website:

I have the same issue with my Lincstation N2. My 10 gbe port shows up as 5 gbe. I didn't do a deep dive yet. I wil run some network test later on.

@ulfn, I have another question for you. What is your experience with the cooling of your newly build SFF NAS? And how about the noise?

@Dylan, another SFF NAS device: https://www.bee-link.com/products/beelink-me-mini-n150

The waiting game is not my favorite. I backed this Kickstarter project in March. Today my new Lincstation N2 finally arrived. I am really happy with it. 🙂 This will be my main HexOs server running as a VM on Proxmox.

I see an opportunity for a HexOs AnyRaid usable storage calculator 😀

Very interesting! Do you where I can find more information about how the available space is calculated in AnyRaid Mirror and in AnyRaid Raid Z1?

I like it anyway 😀. For someone like you, a 3d printer could be a nice adition to your toolsset. When I read your SFF journey I see a lot of experimenting and out of the box thinking.

Did you 3D print the bottom of the case yourself?

This will make a difference for a lot of home users. You can reuse HDDs of different sizes with less constraint.

I am not so good in the waiting game 😀. Looking forward to all the new functionality! I really like the choice to add Jellyfin as the next app. Good choice, Keep up the good work.

And also another new player in the NAS market. The Orico Cyberdata Vault NAS – Price and Release Date The ORICO CyberData Vault NAS series is expected to launch via Kickstarter in late May to early June, marking the company’s formal entry into the high-performance private cloud storage sector. While final pricing has not yet been confirmed, ORICO aims to offer a competitive tiered structure across the six models, reflecting differences in storage configurations, processing power, and expansion options. Positioned as a direct response to a wave of emerging Chinese NAS alternatives, the CyberData Vault lineup is expected to compete with recent and upcoming releases such as the UGREEN NASync DXP series, the Minisforum N5 Pro, and the Aoostar WTR Max. All of these systems target prosumer and professional users seeking hybrid storage, high-speed connectivity, and non-subscription-based private cloud infrastructure—an increasingly active space that ORICO appears intent on disrupting with its multi-model launch strategy.

Me neither, I expected an update last week. But I probably misunderstood.

@Mobius, @Mindless999, my statement was not correct. You can use multiple pools. But it could be that installing 1 click apps are broken with 2 pools. If I remember correctly you have to correct this via the TrueNas interface. We had several forum post about this topic.
