What operating system do you use for your home server? I’m planning to do unraid but what are the other options and why would you pick one or another?
  • I tried Unraid - left due to annoyance of losing server function when I had to take drive arrays down and only scrubbing on demand

    Went to True Nas scale for the promise of ZFS and liked it, but had issues with the interface and getting GPU passthrough to containers was impossible.

    Ended up ditching my large server case (still have it - anyone need a large 12 drive 3U case with a big threadripper and bunch of ram - hit me up) and switched to a NUC running ubuntu with portainer managing my dockers on it and all my data stored on a Synology NAS.
