No, but if you’re a military service member, send me a dm.

As an FYI, if you update via the TrueNAS UI, please stick to the 24.10.x track at this time. We are not ready for 25.04 yet, although I would imagine for most everything would work just fine.

Yes. It's a Q3 roadmap item for us.

Just wanted to provide a quick update on this feature in particular. We are going to try to add this in for Q1 along with a few other big updates to be announced soon.

We had a short outage earlier today that has since been resolved.

We have no plans to support Active Directory directly through our UI at this time. Users who want AD support should probably be using native TrueNAS as permissions management won’t be the same once AD is introduced.

I just searched our support inbox (both forums & email) and didn't find any messages from you. Not sure what went wrong as we are still receiving messages from others, but I am processing your refund right now and it should reach your account in the next 5-7 business days.

Hey @luke9912, I'm sending you a DM now to verify if your reply-to email address is the problem.

@Theo @Dylan Very aware that Plex isn't "perfect" just yet. We definitely have some work ahead of us because there are some issues with performance, transcoding, and networking that need to be addressed. We are definitely going to be revising the Plex one-click deployment and should be able to address a lot if not all of these issues.

Sincerest apologies everyone. This is taking longer than it should. Hope to have this resolved shortly.

In all seriousness, it doesn’t go past any of us here at Eshtek on how much you guys are doing here and helping us and this community. We greatly appreciate it.

We just put in an order for 5 that we should get some time in March I think. These things look awesome. Glad to hear you're liking yours so much!!

Exactly! It's one of the reasons I want to build a comprehensive hardware database for HexOS (obviously opt-in). There are a lot of details with hardware that aren't exposed when buying that we could start to map for folks who took the plunge without the insights. Boot up, run a little scan of how the IOMMU groups layout, what happens when you try to pass through a GPU, etc. and then create a filterable database for users to search and get more details. So many ways to improve UX here beyond just the software.

QFT! VFIO and specifically GPU pass through has been a major focus of mine for almost a decade of my career. VFIO is awesome, but a lot of hardware is just not built with it in mind. For example, when you shut down a VM, you're not really shutting down any hardware. But a lot of GPU vendors didn't bother to put a reset mechanism into the GPU because the reset would be a full shutdown or reboot of the physical hardware. So when you go to start a VM back up with a GPU like that, it just hangs or doesn't initialize the display. Not sure how prevalent that is today, but between 2014-2022, I remember it being all too common. Thankfully projects like this one (vendor-reset) have added a plethora of quirks that help overcome this for troublesome equipment, but it's not a silver bullet. Other complications can arise just by turning on the IOMMU setting in the BIOS. I remember there was a time where if you had a Marvell storage controller and you just turned IOMMU on, the whole host would crash. Not sure if that's still the case in 2025 with more modern stuff, but it wouldn't surprise me if there aren't still some examples of that out there. Bottom line: I don't think most hardware manufacturers fully test virtualization (especially IOMMU) on consumer-grade electronics. So "your mileage may vary" is an appropriate statement here. I swear I could write a novel about VFIO, GPU pass through, and IOMMU groups...
