  1. Nice video. I also have the 4800 plus and downloaded Truenas when I received the NAS (Juneish). It’s worked great for me. Only problem I’ve ran into is that CPU temps are way too high for my liking. I contacted their support and they say it’s because “their software makes sure the CPU stays cool”…. I heard people adjusting the fans in the BIOS but any advice on this?

  2. i'm about to buy a 4 bay nas in the black friday if i found something interesting, so yes being able to install another OS is super important just in case, i'm not planing to install trunas at first, but if not satisfy i'm going to truenas that i already know

    thx for the video

  3. I have never seen anyone have to port forward to get Pi-Hole working unless it's a dd-wrt thing? Updating the IP your router uses for DNS will achieve the same thing.

    Great video! Gutted we can't get them in the UK. I'm looking for a smaller NAS just for my media.

  4. I tried getting into NAS before. Had really bad experiences with it. Every single one I bought had a Linux OS that wouldn't do file permissions correctly and if that wasn't enough every single one died on me due to faulty drives. Instead of NAS I now have a windows 7 machine with a 3770K on a Z77 Sabertooth with 6 drives on it and it has been running flawlessly as a media server for over 3 years with drives that have power on hours of over 7 years.

  5. I looked for these on Amazon in Canada and they don't sell them. And buying them from Eugene Direct pushes that 500 units to 800 Canadian Dollars. so I'll have wait for it to drop down to around 600 CND Can I run Open Media Vault instead ?
