I see everyone talking about FreeNAS and TrueNAS but what about RockStor? https://rockstor.com/ I've been using their free version for about two years now and so far rock solid (bar the irritating nag screen everytime I go to the dashboard). Source: about 1 year ago
There are OSes (like unraid or RockStor) that give you a GUI for some things, but those are strictly optional. Source: over 2 years ago
Rockstor is another one that rarely gets talked about. I never used it, but it looks interesting and might be good if someone wants a WebUI for managing btrfs. Source: over 2 years ago
If you're planning to make your own btrfs-based NAS, then you might find Rockstor interesting. Altought not perfect, I've been using it for a long time with zero issues. Source: almost 3 years ago
I'm using openmediavault.org for my "NAS" OS. No desktop, but it does have a good web-based GUI. To automount your NAS drive, you'd have to modify your fstab file. Lots of good tutorials online. Source: about 1 year ago
Basically, there a few options to start with. The most decent ones are TrueNAS/FreeNAS (https://www.truenas.com/) , OMV (openmediavault.org), both supports zfs. Also, you can look into UnRAID (https://unraid.net/) which allows you to scale easily. Also, some info on zfs https://www.enterprisestorageforum.com/hardware/10-reasons-why-zfs-rocks/ https://www.starwindsoftware.com/the-ultimate-guide-to-zfs. Source: over 1 year ago
I have 5 Optiplex 3010's (i3-3rd Gen processors) sitting in my closet with 4GB RAM that would work just fine as a direct play Plex server with openmediavault as it's OS. And should even HW Transcode a couple of 1080p files with a Plex Pass. Source: over 1 year ago
Wow, I'm on a Debian based headloess OS (openmediavault.org) and my update was much easier. Source: over 1 year ago
The link that u/Fribbtastic had quite a bit of detail. Or there is always r/linux4noobs. I don't have mine installed on Mint and the GUI of my openmediavault.org OS is quite a bit different (I.e. There is no desktop, only a web interface/command line). But the command line should be the same for all distros built off of Debian. Source: over 1 year ago
