So first off I am new to the whole truenas world and am learning a ton reading up here and there. I went a bit crazy recently and decided to build a server to house my media. I have never had the luxury of parity on my data as I have always needed to run with maximum storage but this build I wanted to do things "right". I scooped up a supermicro 3U chassis off of ebay and tossed in some old hardware I had laying about (x399, 19050x, 64GB memory). I also grabbed 16 16TB drives and an LSI 9400 to round out the build.
I was pleasantly surprised that the build itself went smoothly with truenas core installing no problem and the pool building with raidz2 no fuss. I have begun tinkering with the software (plugins/jails are all new to me) and overall I am quite happy. So my question is before I move on from testing and lock everything in what changes would you make in my shoes?
