I have been trying to do multiple searches on the forum and on google trying to find my answers with no real luck. I have a couple of issues that seem to not want to go away or fix.
1. Setting up a new FreeNAS system to use Mac AFS file system (After getting my Macs to see the share, I will get an error on my desktop saying that I don't have permission to access some of the files)
-OR-
2. Setting up a new FreeNAS system to use Windows CIFS to access on a Mac will yield slightly better results but the system will drop off the network after about 75GB worth of transfer.
3. Transfer of all my data from USB3.0 external drives over my wired gigabit network is very slow and there doesn't seem to be a good option of connecting drives directly to my FreeNAS system and doing a "data dump" onto the internal drives for duplication on the OS X Extended (Journaled) file system.
4. Getting Nextcloud to use the 2 other disks for the "Jail" and not use my main storage.
Here are the specs for my machine:
ASUS M5A97LE R2.0 - Motherboard
AMD FX 4300 Quad-Core x64 - Processor
32GB DDR3 1600MHz - Memory
AData SU800 SSD 128GB - Boot Disk (On-board SATA)
Hitachi HTS542 250GB - Mirrored Boot (On-board SATA)
DVD-RW (On-board SATA)
Realtek Gigabit LAN (On-board)
4 drive SATA Backplane (Main Storage - Using SI Labs 3124 SATA card):
2 WD 2.0TB HDD
2 Seagate 2.0TB HHD
2 WD 250GB HDD (for Nextcloud use later) (On-board SATA)
Once I get the system working, I would be adding the two 2.0TB external USB 3.0 drives to add to my main storage to increase its capacity. Later on, I will replace those with 4 more 2.0TB 3.5" drives in an external USB 3.0 SATA 4 bay enclosure.
Am I crazy for thinking this could work or am I missing something?
