How good does HexOS/TrueNAS Scale handle hardware changes?


Recommended Posts

Posted

Right now I have system running:

  • Intel 4770K
  • 16 GB DDR3 RAM
  • LSI M5015 HBA (up to 8 disks) with a PCI-E Extender card (so it was ready for up to 16 disk total) running in RAID 6
  • 8x Seagate IronWolf 2 TB
  • Windows 2022

I’m planning to switch to HexOS once it’s closer to final (I grabbed a license back when they were cheap). Before that, I’ll need to back up my current media, which I already have plans for.

How well does HexOS/TrueNAS Scale handle major hardware upgrades (CPU, motherboard, RAM) after switching?

And what’s the cheapest HBA that can support up to 16 drives in IT-mode?
