Which Version for Macbook pro with Catalina

Hi Guys,

Looking to use Open Media Vault to provide some NAS storage and possibly backup for my Macbook Pro running Catalina.

Going to be using a Raspberry Pi 3+ and was wondering which version of Open Media Vault would be best V4 or V5

Any input would be appreciated

Thanks

If you want to use a stable release it’s OMV 4.x. You can try OMV5.x but it’s not yet stable. Both will work for you.

OMV4 is based on Stretch which is going EOL within the year.

I would go to OMV5 which is based on Buster.

Hi, If you are planing to use the NAS as TimeMachine, than you must install OMV5, since Stretch will come with older Samba and will not work. You will need at least Samba 4.8 to do that.

I've just installed OMV5 on my ODROID-HC2 and it is working perfectly.

yes thought i might give it a try, At the moment I have an Harddrive connected to a router, and it's not playing ball so thought i would give Open media vault a try , fairly new to the Mac so doing a lot of Googling
