Quote of the Month
“We liked the built-in snapshots and data integrity features that ZFS had to offer. We are very familiar with FreeBSD, which we used as a diskless platform for all of our teaching workstations. The fact that TrueNAS is rooted in those technologies was a very big selling point for us in regard to administration and stability.”
