Got so fed up trying the Qnap to behave I gave up. Attractive hardware but I never got the software doing what I wanted. After searching the net I found I could (probably) install Truenas on it. So I'm trying this now. Registered here because it is very likely I'll need it to get everything working.

It is a "TS-453 Pro" according to the label. This is a 4 bay model and I got 4 Seagate 2TB "NAS HDD" in it. The OS is on a Kingston 120GB with USB3. That is not ideal as I get errors when installing and booting.

The idea is to go to raid5. That would give me about the same as I have in the desktop, also a raid 5 with 2TB HD's. So now on to reading the Truenas documentation to get it up and running.
