What a great find!!! This video is the best thing I have found on the web about TrueNAS scale. I really liked what you explained and how you explained it.... very clear and without going around the bush. I'm going to watch all your Truenas Scale videos because they promise a lot of teaching. Bravo!!! Greetings from Spain (Europe).

Hey man, just wanted to let you know that your videos have been the best (and sometimes only) videos on these topics that are understandable for people like me, who know barely enough to set these things up but don't actually have any clue what they're doing. Really appreciate the hard work and I hope I continue to see you succeed.

Really great run down of the important bits, nice one 👍 I didn't know about the automatic save of the config during the night, handy to know.

Thank you for this short video! I found it really helpful. Love to see more truenas scale stuff from you.

If you have more than two disks for storage, there is one thing to do before you shove the disks into their bays.... Write down the serial number and write down in what bay or slot you put them. Might be handy in case of disk failure.

At the end there was no instruction on how to setup the backup system initially. Great Video!!!

Just installed Truenas Scale today, great timing!

I’m looking forward to the RSync to another TrueNAS server. Keep up the good work!

Good stuff! Thank you for going through all of that!

Thank you! Very useful for someone new to TrueNAS and looking for some best practices to implement :)

Really well explained, keen for more videos on good configuration for SCALE :)

The transitions do nice thanks for all the help

ive been seeing your content in my searches alot. just moved to truenas myself from unraid. just subscribed to your channel. if you dont mind me adding my 2 cents it would be nice to add chapters in the timeline for the 6 settings. but either way thanks for the information as this has helped me in my journey into truenas ecosystem.

Very handy, thanks mate!

Man great howto's, thanks a lot for making them

Great video with lots of useful information

Great video, thank you!

Very good vidoe. Thx

A great video. It helped me make sure I have some important settings set. would love to see a video going through all the different ways on how you can backup your data.

i am new to truenas scale so it helps thank you

would you please add your snapshot video to the description/information card so its easier for us to find

Thanks!

Dude's got the strongest of eyebrow games

Super helpful 🙏It would be great to see a tutorial on how to recover from disaster or how to recover from backup, I'm too scared myself to try it!

Setting up the email notifications should be something that everyone should do as well.

Это лучший канал по этой теме!

Спасибо за полезное видео.

Superb! Thanks very much and keep on going §8-)

If you move all your data to your new nas and then expand the volume, how do you get the data to distribute evenly to the newly added drives?

First I must say exactly video and thank you for all your hard work, but I have a question I have truenas scale installed in proxmox and I would like to share my pool or smb share with all my media files to my Plex container in proxmox is this possible, If so could you point me in the right direction please..?

Thank you for the great explanation. I have a question regarding the truenas. Do we have a safe mode in truenas

Is it necessary to schedule smart tests if scrubs are on every week? Won’t zfs just identify the issues?

thank you friend , I'm waiting for new videos on Scale

Where are the snapshots stored. Same pool? Does it snap changed blocks? What is the smallest block for snaps? If i change one word in one file, what does it snap?

What is an example of when and why one would have to restore the config backup? Can some elements be restored or is it all or nothing?

Can you make a video on how to set up the OpenVPN server and client on truenas scale. I haven't see a good guide yet

iv got a nas and a 8tb hd that gets everything copied to it and my pool is only 8tb that's my extent of a back up as i only store Tv shows and dvd rips of discs i own on it if either ever die its just matter of replacing one of them and reloading it again or just go through the 2-3weeks of rips again .

Hi, I have a Synology 4-bay NAS. I have set it up so my four 8TB hard drives all back up my media not in a raid config rather each drive backs up independent of each other and so all drives are in use and my redundancy is if anyone drive dies well I have all my media on the remaining three 8TB drives if all four drives were to die well I still have an 8TB in two other PC's where the media is housed. If in the event they two were to die I also have an 8TB External drive which is back up to twice daily. So my question is why do most people use raid and lose the use of good hard drives when they could easily do the very same as I do, no need to have redundant drives not being used for storage, cheers

Can you please post a video on NordVPN Meshnet with TrueNAS on how to access Nexcloud from remote

Thanks for this. I have just been in the process of building a new NAS to replace my old file server and this turned out to be a real help with that. I had been trying to build a TrueNAS Core server but I could never get the VM side of this to work but this, alongside some of the ported settings from my Core build that did actually work, has given this whole project the kick it needed to get it working as I wanted it to. (If you want to see what my new system looks like, Linus Tech Tips was where I got the original idea - see kzfaq.info/get/bejne/mNV7oL18ubG8eJc.html

Just migrated to Scale from Core. I'm inexperienced with docker and kubernetes which i'm trying to learn. However, a day after the migration and a SMART test I had a disk failure. RaidZ2 so thankfully not too worried. Has anyone else experienced this from an in place update? Seems too odd to fail at that time after 5+ years of zero errors.

I'm on the bog

Please add video timestamps

"don't set long smart tests at the same time as scrub tasks" -> proceeds to set long smart tests at the same time as scrub tests AND overlapping long and short smart tests. Sorry, I had to say it :)
