Hey guys

Does netdata constantly write the logs to USB?
And then when viewing it is it reading off the USB?

I really like the graphs and all, but I dont want to kill my USB boot drive.
Also with netdata turned on is there a way to turn off the generic FreeNAS reporting?

Is there a way to move the writing/reading to my pool, or somewhere other so I dont increase the wear on my boot USB's?

Also CPU looks like its 2.1ghz steady (Xeon CPU E5-2620 v4 @ 2.10GHz) according to netdata.
Server isnt really in use right now, I would think that it would slow down and ram up as its needed/used?

So 3 questions:
1) Where is netdata stored, is it a problem for usb's, and can we move the logging
2) Can I turn off the default FreeNAS reporting when netdata is on
3) Is the CPU not supposed to auto downclock

I'd expect that, like the normal FreeNAS reporting, any data that's stored is on the .system dataset. Once you create a storage pool, that dataset will be put on the pool by default.

Ok cool is there any way I can check where it currently is?
I started FreeNAS with no drives, and added a pool
