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?

[–] XenGi@lemmy.chaos.berlin 5 points 6 months ago

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

Old Proliant cube servers

Check out Wolfgang's Channel on YouTube. He goes very in depth on low power consumption home servers.

Anything you can find 2nd hand cheap with a bunch of SATA ports and at least a gigabit LAN

[–] Loucypher@lemmy.ml 1 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Any chromebox can be used for this. You can grab one for cheap from businesses that have decommissioned them

[–] possiblylinux127@lemmy.zip 2 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Unless you want to store your data... Chromeboxes are not known for being expandable

[–] Loucypher@lemmy.ml 1 points 6 months ago (1 children)

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

[–] possiblylinux127@lemmy.zip 1 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Interesting. It is not recommended that you use USB drives for ZFS but it sounds like it is working for you.

[–] Loucypher@lemmy.ml 1 points 6 months ago

Perfect is the enemy of good. TrueNAS has been happy and running non stop for 6 months now

[–] makingStuffForFun@lemmy.ml 1 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Oh man. I'm still on 5 and terrified to upgrade.

[–] warmaster@lemmy.world 1 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Have you faced any issues upgrading past versions ?

[–] makingStuffForFun@lemmy.ml 1 points 6 months ago

I've never upgraded. I'll have to bite the bullet at some stage
