Tips for moving from TrueNAS to Debian for a NAS?

For my own curiosity, I decided to check the release notes. I thought it was weird that TrueNAS would remove SMART monitoring, but looks like they didn't. Just got heavily changed what they're doing with it. The new recommendation is to use a third-party tool which does what TrueNAS was doing with disk monitoring, but does it better.

The short of it is TrueNAS still has smartmontools binaries installed and still monitors SMART data from drives. Just doesn't have the dedicated space in the UI anymore. It'll still alert on SMART failures.

Link to Disk Monitoring in the relevant Release Notes (25.10):

I have a biased take here, but:

It's so much worse than that. It's like saying "We can't trace any completed connect the dots drawings" when there were 200 already completed connect the dots drawings specifically based on Star Wars.

I would kill to have a Darth Bane movie trilogy or two movies based on Revan. There's even a Star Wars zombie book they could have turned into a movie at the height of the zombie media craze for crying out loud.

Horribly, horribly mismanaged.

I just wanted to give some texture to the conversation here.

Myspace, facebook, digg, twitter, and youtube all launched before you were born. They may not have been popular yet until 2008-2009, but it's very likely your dad has been using some form of social media for the last 18 years.

Just days after launch, Hytale mods already let you run Windows 95, Minecraft, and somehow even Hytale itself within the sandbox RPG, and Hypixel has questions: "How"

Reply in thread

Just my opinion, but I could only see this being true for people who play modded Minecraft. The combat is very different, farming and food is very different, the enemies are different, there's a bunch of furniture in the game. There's a very good, built-in character customization system. It visually looks very different.

I'd need, like, 4 mods and a shader in Minecraft to get a similar experience.

Not saying Hytale is better or worse. But, I think it's done well to separate itself in the survival genre so far and it only just released in early access. If the voxel-type game isn't something a person generally likes, it's easy to look at it and think, "Block game is similar to block game."
