Home Nas Server

hardk0re,May 14 2009, 12:26 AM Wrote:I just finished my new home NAS box with freenas.  Not the largest most robust system out there, but i'm more comfortable with hardware failure now.  The DNS-323 I had before was great, I didn't spend more than 30 minutes and I had tested drive failures, etc.  Setup email notifications, user access and was done.

With FreeNAS theres just too much to play around with.

Intel Atom D945GCLF2 (dual core atom)
1 GB DDR2 Ram
2 Seagate 1TB Drives
1gb USB Drive for FreeNAS
Small ITX case with room for 3 drives.


Rather than using software raid.  I am just using rsync to sync one drive to another.  Pretty much same as a mirror, to me it just seems so very easy if there's a drive failure to recover when things are setup this way.

I've got many more hours of playing around with this.  Anybody play with openfiler and compare with freenas?

open filer doesn't seem to support UPnP services (without pay-for updates anyways)... and doesn't support ZFS. It also looks like it's a much more basic system with little support and a lot of unknowns -- I don't even know what OS it's based on.

I'd stick with freeNAS. If you're not interested in ZFS, stick with 0.69 and you should be fine.
