TrueNAS on Dell OptiPlex SFF

[xuzito]

Hi all,

I'm wondering if is possible to install TrueNAs directly to Dell Optiplex i5 32gb ram - no virtualization.

If yes, is there anything that must be done prior to the installation?

Can someone advise? thanks!

It may be possible, but most SFF systems do not have sufficient space for the necessary drives. You need both a boot pool and a data pool. An SFF system typically lacks space for a second hard drive, so even if you manage to bodge together a solution for boot pool, you are probably left with no redundancy for the data pool.
