Hello,
First off, I know this is be A oddity.
So, I have A home server , use it for Plex, VMs, Game hosting ect ect. Been using Windows Storage Spaces for years (with out issues). However, had A disk fail and first time Storage Spaces would not rebuild for me ( But no data loss ). So, I wanted to Setup Truenas as VM inside windows .. just to test it out , not even sure if it would work. (Did not want TrueNas as a host becuase it wont do GPU transcoding)
Anyhow .. Have done some test setups. And can get it to work. When I transfer to or from the windows SMB I get full Gigabit 113 MB/s (so network is my bottleneck).
The issue, I am having is .. When I map it as Network Drive and give that info to plex. Play back is crazy bad. Plex shows it almost as Network issues.
Is this A Plex issue, TrueNas issue, User Issue, Usecase issue ?
also, if I do get this working as intended. Am I missing any unforeseen issues ... (is this a bad idea) ?
TrueNAS is running in A VM (Windows 10 HyperV)
