This is a very interesting NAS system to work with, specially for its flexibility. It has lots of options to connect with, including AFP, NFS, SMB/CIFS, iSCSI, and many others. The plugin ecossystem, although it does not have many plugins available, does have very interesting options to choose from, including CI/CD tools, home entertainment softwares, and other neat apps that could move your appliance away from being a simple NAS box. I've had some issues with it's NFS server, but all in all, it is a very good addition for your office, home lab, or anything else you might require a robust storage system to back.

In our company we use TrueNAS Scale as a network shared storage solution for our offices. It is easy to configure and reliable. It allows us to work comfortably and keep our backups secure. At our headquarters, more than 40 employees work against the same TrueNAS server and we have not registered any incident for months.

- ZFS filesystem with builtin self checks and weekly scrubbing - Disk errors are automatically detected and I am notified about them - Pool management that beautifully handles disk loss, disk replacement, and intermittent issues - Configuration is relatively easy except for user rights management
