I know a year or two ago , the 'one GB per TB of storage space' was a defacto standard paradigm...
Now I see TrueNAS' official page says just (paraphrasing) '8 GB for managing up to 8 hard drives'?
That's a pretty huge difference, as 8 each 16 TB drives could be done with 8 GB now, vice the old recommended standard of 128 GB?
What/when are performance impacts for minimal RAM vs following the old standards when simply managing the storage? (Not talking about someone wanting to run 5 VMs, etc) Are there any advantages to having 128 GB of RAM vs. just 8 or 16 GB ...at all?
