Hi,
I've installed FreeNAS on a USB key (on a HP N40L). Is it possible to install some applications on this USB key to avoid using hard drives? For example, I have a dedicated application, running every 15 minutes (crontab), in charge of retrieving some data on an external equipment. It could be interesting for me to install this app on this usb key and keep my hard drive idle (or hibernated if possible).
In the same way, is it possible to install jail on this usb key (I plan to install Logitech Media Server as explained in a post of this forum, requiring jail installation).
Any help appreciated (and I'm new to Freenas, so maybe asking stupid questions !).
Regards.
Fabrice
