As for migration, you might be able to create a degraded pool initially, copy over the data, and add the parity disk last.
I actually asked in the TrueNAS forum about this idea. According to some knowledgeable users this might work. For anyone interested, details here.
The next major release (planned for end of October), should make this easier.
I'm finally taking the leap from upgrading from a media drive sitting in my desktop PC to a self-build NAS. The parts are on their way and I have to figure out what to do when they actually arrive.
*Current setup:*
Desktop PC with a single 20TB media drive (zfs, 15TB in use)
*My knowledge:*
I use Linux as my daily driver, but I'm far from a power user. I can figure out and fix problems with online resources or the kind help of others like you
*The goal:*
I want to move to a small NAS (**2 additional 20TB drives** are on their way). The system will have **32GB of DDR5 RAM**. **1 disk parity for 40TB of usable storage**
*What will I use it for:*
- Backup for Desktop PC
- Media server (Jellyfin)
- Arr stack
- (other small services int he future?)
*My questions:*
1. What OS should I use? The obvious answers being Unraid or TrueNAS.
The 40TB of storage (1 disk parity) will likely be enough for a couple of years. So adding additional drives is not planned for some time.
2. How can I import the data from my current drive to the NAS?
I am very new to the topic and my initial searches were not that helpful. With Unraid I should just be able to setup the first two disks and import the data from the other. I am unsure how to accomplish that with TrueNAS.
Some advice and tips would be great. Feel free to ask for more details if I forgot some crucial info.

Maybe it’s just me, but I think entities that deliberately spread and use malware should be punished and held accountable. Too bad these entities help write the laws.
When knowledge is deliberately gated by large entities and the author would give it away for free (scientific papers) is a no-brainer for me. Or when a course requires specific textbooks that costs hundreds of dollars.
I’m looking into Proton, Windscribe and AirVPN atm.
Travelling the high seas is my main reason for a VPN. In the past I didn’t use it enough to switch from Mullvad, which I liked except for their port forwarding switch.
Hello sailors,
I wanted to try out Arr* and installed and configured everything for the first few days (Native, Arch). Just tinkering around.
Radarr and Sonarr used qbittorrent at first, but the permissions gave me trouble. I installed qbittorrent-nox and run it via systemd for a different user. This fixed my permission troubles.
However, even though both run with the same settings, nox is firewalled (DHT: 0 nodes, stuck on getting the metadata) while the regular version shows online and downloads with good speeds.
I use MullvadVPN (doesn't offer Port Forwarding anymore). I opened a port in my router.
I'm pretty new to this. Does anyone have any idea what could be the problem? Do I have to add something to the systemd service?
Any hints wouldbe appreciated!
Thanks for reading!

Rumors are it will have a LCD screen. That way Nintendo will be able to make a version with an OLED screen a few years later and sell it to you again. They’re so “innovative”.
