>I've gone the TrueNAS route, but I'm running it on a QNAP TS-451. I'm running TrueNAS off of a USB stick hanging off the back
Oh, I didn't realize that QNAP allows that. Synology makes it pretty hard to boot any other OS, and I assumed the other vendors were similar. I'll keep that in mind for my next build because I do have fun building servers, but I also really appreciate systems like Synology and QNAP where the hardware and case is optimized for the NAS use-case.
