   I didn't realize that #FreeNAS is now TrueNAS Core, while #TrueNAS is now TrueNAS Enterprise. They also now have a #Linux based "TrueNAS Scale" product ... back when I listened to #BSD_Now, #IX_Systems (the company behind the above) was solidly in #BSD land.

   My perception is that once there's $SOFTWARE Community Edition and $SOFTWARE Enterprise Edition, the sponsoring company will usually gradually suffocate the CE version in order to push users into buying licenses for the EE version. I'm not saying this is happening here, but if I were building a #NAS box, I'd keep that in mind when deciding what software stack to run on it.

      That said, I'm sure that #TrueNAS compares *very* favorably with #Synology's software and probably with #QNap's software also.

      While I was on the #TrueNAS site, I decided to visit https://truenas.com/careers/ page, but it is #JavaScrippled #JavaScript_Dependent and I wasn't interested enough to turn #JavaScript on for them.
