I used it and liked it but I need ZFS.
I currently run a fucked up DIY NAS over Debian (I don't like FreeNAS) which is dying and would like to start over fresh so I'm wondering wheter people are using OMV+ZFS of it's still an unstable worthless combo

You won't have any problems with it, OMV is basically debian so GNU/Linux kernel and you have ZFS over Linux, a native port of ZFS, here check this

what jxxx board should i use for my 6 drive mini ITX NAS build? (not planning on using pic related just a random image)
looking to use two of these little USB sticks in raid 1 for the OS, which will be OMV. Only going to store media files (movies, tv shows, porn, music, etc) on there
I might also use it as an HTPC to watch movies so I might also need a GPU i guess? can these boards output video in 1080p/4K?
does OMV support running media files in K-lite or something?

USB in raid 1 for OS...thats not a bad idea user...I dig it. Not sure you'll want 6 drives spinning next to your TV using it as a HTPC, unless you've got a cabinet style furniture nearby you can stick it in - in which case I'd be sure to check on airflow, as 6 drives will need some air flowing to stay chill (and not reduce their lifespan due to heat).

I don't get the freenasfags either. They love the shit out of it. I found it clunky and not easy to use, even with the gui. I run ubuntu server with ZFS and its comfy as hell. ZFS on ubuntu is rock solid, been running it over a year without any problems, so I assume since its based on Debian, it will be fine there too.

why even use ZFS when SnapRaid is infinitely superior for a home NAS/media server
Logan Thompson
Well, I'm not keen on OMV and I never tried FreeNAS, but since I've been reading and watching tutorials about it I think OMV goes more into the home-nas solution and FreeNAS bites more into the business side, imho
