  1. It's what I did, set the stripe pool via TrueNas, thanks. Turns out I didn't even need the hexos. My single drive stripe pool is not even recognised in hexos, had to install plex via truenas as well. Also installed a file browser and a couple of other apps with minimal effort apart from Minecraft bedrock server which is not natively available only the java version is available. The bedrock required some work and learning curve to install as custom app. So I didn't get to test the hexos, how much simpler it would have been to set up my specific environment via hexos but I was also surprised how not rocket science is the truenas scale and how good is it's UI. I didn't even need a single command line or stuff like that. Setting up pools, data sets and user rights via truenas was the most demanding and required some digging online as I had no prior experience with custom nas before, I only ever had the asustor nas. Anyways, i wish I had experimented with truenas scale before purchasing the hexos license. I am sure it will be useful to many non geeky users but in my experience truenas scale alone is close enough.
  2. Damn it, I also did not read the requirement for 2x drives before purchasing the hexos license. My pocket NAS only accept M.2 and with one spare 2tb installed meaning I now need another M.2 with 2TB capacity which are not cheap. I will only be using this as low power always on plex server and so I don't care about redundancy etc. I can rip the movies back on if the drive fails.
