Hi folks,
I bought my first nas 9 years ago, a QNAP TS-219PII. Meanwhile I had some other QNAPs in use. Currently a TS-653 Pro and a TS-269L (backup). For a while I was an active member/supporter of the german qnapclub community. But I lost more and more confidence in QNAP. That the firmware is getting more unstable is only one reason. I flirted with FreeNAS. But for a test system the price seemed too high. Recently I found a build for a DIY OMV Nas on technikaffe.de. By chance I was able to bid for the mainboard on ebay. And here is my setup with small changes to the original:
FW: OMV V4.1.16
MB: ASRock J4205-ITX
RAM: 2x 4GB Kingston DDR3L-1600 1,35V (KVR16LS11/4)
PSU: picoPSU-120 with Salcar 72W
SSD: Transcent 32GB SSD
HDD: Seagate Exos X X10 10TB
CASE: Lian Li PC-Q28
My target: Replace the QNAPs with OVM Nas. But I am not in hurry. Get to know OMV step by step.
greetings
