My homelab setup has become very simple:
- I want a linux server, mostly for docker
- I want a network (SMB) share
- I want the ability to backup to my buddies, and allow them backup to meI was an early customer of #HexOS, and if the current prices for computer parts weren't as expensive, a new NAS would already be standing next to me.
Maybe it is time to switch anyway — do you have suggestions?

@jimsalter I must admit I REALLY enjoyed listening to you give @allanjude some friendly side eye over the #HexOS
#ZFS AnyRaid changes on the latest @25admins :)It's an interesting example of why the show makes for enlightening and entertaining listening even as someone who will very likely never be in a position where I need to professionally administer self maintained enterprise class storage.

AnyRaid huh? ZFS mismatched disk support? Is this going to be a good idea even when development is finished? And how long is that likely to take?
Still. An interesting thing to see being discussed and funded. #zfs #hexos #selfhosting

My next NAS won't be a #Synology. I won't be buying hardware that is vendor locked. Maybe do some research into #HexOS? #PlannedObsolescence

And it begins
Photo of Ubuntu Server Install So I finally started the temp server setup and immediately hit a wall due to formatting issues. Finally got everything set, started copying data over from the old server and realized that my soon to be server solution of HexOS (https://hexos.com) isn’t viable at this time. I need it to support more apps. So at least all I did was waste some time before I re-realized my goof. -
Taking #HexOS for a spin. Also checking out the Aoostar WTR Pro 4-Bay #NAS with the Intel N100. It's a VERY nice NAS. Aluminum chassis, easy to access memory and SSD, quiet 120mm fan. It runs #Immich very well and hopefully HexOS can become something I can setup for family and recommend to others without having to also be lifetime tech support. #homelab #TrueNAS

I've now watched @technotim's video on the new HexOS (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vyyq0_aOkIo), and I've got questions. Mostly just "huh?":
That's an OS for your local storage box...that needs a cloud account. Huh?
It's a reskin of TrueNAS. Huh?
They want 300 bucks for said reskin of TrueNAS. Huh?!
Sure, I understand that I'm nowhere near the target market for this product - but who is?
-
I tried the HexOS Beta, the new Linus backed Home Server NAS operating system. Here's how it went.

300 $ für etwas, was basically ein Skin für #TrueNAS ist? Klingt wie ein weiteres Fettnäpfchen für #LinusTechTips.
