From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

While we're on the topic: any good NAS hardware recommendation?
Synology usually just works. If you ask for a diy build, you have to be more specific.
It highly depends on your requirements.
Low power usage, storage/memory expandability
Check out Wolfgang's Channel on YouTube. He goes very in depth on low power consumption home servers.
Old Proliant cube servers
Anything you can find 2nd hand cheap with a bunch of SATA ports and at least a gigabit LAN
Any chromebox can be used for this. You can grab one for cheap from businesses that have decommissioned them
Unless you want to store your data... Chromeboxes are not known for being expandable
Huh actually yes, I have one with TrueNAS on and have created a couple of Zvol connected over USB. It is not like having a big server but it does the job while using little power
Interesting. It is not recommended that you use USB drives for ZFS but it sounds like it is working for you.
Perfect is the enemy of good. TrueNAS has been happy and running non stop for 6 months now
Oh man. I'm still on 5 and terrified to upgrade.
Have you faced any issues upgrading past versions ?
I've never upgraded. I'll have to bite the bullet at some stage
