So if anyone is wondering why is most of the convo now leaning to docker containers lately, well
for basic usage, truenas simply stores your data. that’s about it. sounds mundane but it’s a very important function for most of us.
but if you want to do more stuff, then you can begin to venture to doing stuff like self hosting. docker is one of the popular choices for install a self hosted app e.g. jellyfin, plex, etc…
so 3/4 or mid point into this thread we already had successfully setup truenas on the QNAP TS-877 for basic storage accessible via smb (nfs also if you configure that which i haven’t yet). this basic use has already been concluded is what i am saying more or less.
the rest of the thread discussion at this point will mostly lean heavily on docker container setup since this is still ongoing.
and may touch up on some truenas update changes, or some other stuff now and then.
that is the summary update for this thread for now
