    I'm surprised how hard it was to find a simple Truenas beginners guide for basic setup, but yours was perfect. Thank you.

    Thank you for an excellent simple tutorial. I'm setting up our first home server and you've made the initial setup an accessible experience. Obviously TrueNAS is a far more complex beast and I look forward to exploring it. I just love that I can recycle old hardware into something useful to us instead of buying yet another box. Once again, thank you.

      I'd like to second this. Also for me this saved me a ton on headache on the system process I was trying to use before. I've spend tens of hours trying to set something up to the same effect and this takes you through in just a good coherent way!

    This was easily the best tutorial I've heard without being ridiculously long and full of extra chitchat. I had been poking at mine on and off for 3 days trying to get shares to work and you made this a breeze! I'll be back for more info later. Thank you.

      @@EverythingSmartHome Guys, what the best OS and setting to change my desktop PC into NAS multimedia server?
      So, my plan is using :
      - Motherboard : Asus ROG Strix B560
      - Processor : AMD Ryzen 5600G
      - Memory : 2 x 8 GB DDR4 RAM 3200 mhz
      - SSD for booting OS (Freenas or?) : 512 GB SSD 2.5 inch
      - Eksternal HDD bay : Yottamaster PS500RC3
      - HDD 3.5 inch : WD Red @ 8 TB x 5
      - Power Supply : 450 watt 80 plus bronze
      Question :
      1. Can OS FreeNAS/TrueNAS detect Yottamaster HDD bay as partition hard disk on my Desktop PC ? (i will use usb 3.0 port from motherboard to connect to Yottamaster HDD bay)
      2. Can i use my Nvidia Shield TV pro 2019 to play all movies from Yottamaster HDD bay i connected to motherboard on my desktop PC ?
      3. Please give me best setting or tutorial to build this desktop PC as NAS Server ^^
      4. Can OS FreeNAS/TrueNAS install application such as Plex, Kodi or etc? Please explain ^^
      Im newbie guys, so please guide and teach me. Thank you 🙏😉

    Excellent guidance, straight to the point, no sponsor brag, no screwing around as many other UA-camrs do to artificially lengthen the video. Your instructions are a great lead for me to setup a 2012 HP ProLiant N36L MicroServer as a TrueNAS CORE system.
    I got hold of a HP H240 SmartArray Host Bus Adapter a seller forgot to remove from another HP MicroServer I bought on eBay. Turns out: It's now a great addition as I could slot in a 4-bank 2,5" drive caddy in the 5,25" bay. Now the system is handling the default 3,5" vertical drives AND the supplementary 2,5" horizontal drives via the HBA mentionned above. Eight drives in one system!
    Important Note: TrueNAS ZFS does NOT play nicely alongside hardware RAID, so it's definately the best option to configure the adapter as HBA in order to pass the drives as-is directly to the system.

    Where is the SUPERLIKE button? IT wannabe. Spent hours this week watching videos how to setup my first NAS when someone gave me a 2010 QNAP appliance. I didn't like how slow it was with an Atom processor and four 2TB HDs and 1G RAM. I have an extra Dell XPS 8900 i7, 32G RAM and one 2TB SSD and another 250GB SSD. Added another 2TB SSD and attached two of the 2TB HDDs from the QNAP. Watched more FreeNAS then TrueNAS Core videos. Followed the TrueNAS setup instructions from another channel that included a tweak in the system terminal! Scratched my head all night frustrated because the PCs cannot find the shared folder. Decided to sleep over it. Hunted for more basic setup videos, found yours, and magic!!!

You could maybe do this on other parts too, like „windows“ checkbox when creating the user or the ACL. Just one or two sentences why you do it and what it does can help clear things up for new users, i think.

    • @EverythingSmartHome

      Yes that's right you can choose two disks (they don't need to be identical) and it will create a mirror for you so if you lose one then you are unaffected. It is zfs though not LVM. Hope that helps!
