 Do you guys/gals use more then one #BSD derivative?

Do you have a favorite? 🙂

Good thing I left that behind.
Mastodon is in any way superior

 @5f9bb1a8 
Indeed 😉 
Have to also play around more with #Jails - quite some time ago since I did more with them 😀 
 Ordered a 8GB RAM stick for the #NAS 🙂 

Currently only 4GB installed. This will also give me some more options to play around with #FreeBSD 😎 
 Used to run may #NAS with a #Linux distro.

Went full vanilla #FreeBSD some months ago with #ZFS 

One word: Awesome 😎 

#RUNBSD #BSD 
 Everyone should try #ZFS on #FreeBSD 😎 

It is dead simple to use!

zpool create nas mirror /dev/ada0 /dev/ada2

The end. You have a RAID1 mirror.

Thanks to all the #ZFS and #FreeBSD devs out there! 
 Question for the #ZFS guys/gals:

Is there something one should consider when doing a mirror (Two SSD's, RAID 1)? 🙂 

I normally only do:

zpool create example mirror /dev/ada1 /dev/ada2

(I'm no #ZFS expert at all)

#FreeBSD #ZFS 
 Running my #NAS with #FreeBSD is truly great.

I'm at the point where I forget that there is a os handling all of it.

Setup once and pretty much forget... it just works! 😎

 @5f9bb1a8 
Good morning Stefano! 😀 
 Good morning fellow #BSD users! 😎 
 Great little article from @deeebd68 👍 

What #BSD did you guys start on?

I started with #OpenBSD 4.5 (Games) in 2009 😎

 The content from my #Youtube channel is now also available on #Odysee 😎 

For anyone prefering something else other than #Youtube itself 😉

 Friends of #BSDCafe and the #Fediverse, today I drove for hours in terrible weather, but I manage... 
 @5f9bb1a8 
The life of a SysAdmin for sure! 
Get some rest 😉 
 Time for some #homelab fun 😎 

Wishing everyone a great weekend! 😉
