Because the two mainstream choices in late 2023 — TrueNAS Scale and Unraid — are both excellent, both mature, and built on genuinely opposite philosophies about how disks should be arranged. Pick the one whose philosophy matches your hardware and habits, and the thing is a joy. Pick against your grain and you will fight it forever. This is the comparison I wish someone had laid out for me before I built my first proper NAS, framed around the decisions that actually matter rather than a feature checklist.</p>Tue, 19 Dec 2023 10:17:00 +0000
