I have a Syn DS 220+ 2Gb RAM and a GmkTec miniPC with Intel N100, 16 GB DDR4 running Proxmox V8.4...

NAS services:

  • Synology Office + calendar
  • Restic
  • Rsync

Proxmox services:

  • piHole
  • Jellyfin + related services
  • Docker with less than 5 stacks.

The miniPC is at its limits with NVME and sometimes even piHole hits a snag.

Recently I finished helping a friend setup TrueNAS 25.04 and I love it.

I could get my hands on a SFF PC at 180$ and some 64 GB DDR4 ECC with 90$.

I would like to also host Forgejo and maybe the frontend of some small website. Ideally, I'd like to setup Kerberos for NFS sharing too and with Synology that failed spectacularly.

So, after all this context, would you advise me to migrate from Syn+Nucbox to TrueNAS or not? What is your reasoning?

Going to try TrueNAS as well, but have to build up the new machine first
