Raspberry Pi doesn't Boot

All kinds of things can result in this. What software did you use to create your bootable flash card? It used to be that you needed specific boot images and kernels for each model of the pi. It seems that no longer applies to raspbian images from raspberrypi.org, but it might still apply to OMV. Some pi models don't like some brands/types of flash media. I'm just offering this up as food for thought.

BTW, if you are planning to use this as a headless media server with external USB hard drive, I recommend looking at the odroid boxes. They have USB 3 and real gigabit ethernet interfaces.

Nope. Those ODROIDs that have USB3 implement also Gigabit Ethernet via USB3 (doesn't matter, just slightly higher CPU utilization compared to 'real' GbE). But the only good ODROID choices currently are HC1 and HC2 anyway (C1/C2 have all USB ports behind an internal USB hub and XU4 suffers from USB3 receptacle problems -- see my signature)

Same problem here.

No boot afther all night waiting. Is any chace to find somewhere an old image to burn with the old way (Win32DiskImager)? I was happy with previos version; I'm only updating becuase SD was wroken... and now I haven't my home nas

You can burn latest OMV4 image with Win32DiskImager too. Use latest Win32DiskImager version and activate the optional verify step. It won't change anything since Etcher does a verify by default.

Most probably you suffer from a corrupted image download. Check SHA1 or MD5 checksums from download page and compare it with your download. Since you're using Windows no idea which additional tool you need for such basics.

I guess my point was that the odroid will actually transfer over the Ethernet at almost saturation speed.according to iperf. It will also do a good job of maximizing the transfer from a usb3 to SATA adapter, assuming the adapter is up to the job -- mine isn't when it comes to a good SSD. At any rate it, I believe that it massively outperforms a pi at being a headless server.

Every other SBC available massively outperforms a pi. The Raspberry Pi is simply the worst choice possible for any NAS.

If you want an energy efficient alternative you should check the options carefully though (and there are just 2 ODROIDs currently amongst good options): Which energy efficient ARM platform to choose?
