I’m working on building a NAS for a media server and I’m trying to figure out what OS to choose. I’m not apposed to paying for something if it’s worth it, but free and open source is always appreciated. Drive pooling is a must and support for raid would definitely be a pro. On top of that I’d like to run all the arr’s, Plex, Tautulli, and a few other things. Any suggestions would be much appreciated!

​

Thanks, TC370

    Some variation of Linux + BTRFS filesystem + Docker is what I use. Lots of good options for free.

      Is that something I would have to download and combine, or is there an all in one version of that? I’m very new to this and don’t even know where to begin looking.
