February 1, 201610 yr So I am curious what you guys recommend for a file system on unRAID. XFS? BTRFS? ReiserFS? (doubt it) I was leaning towards XFS but thought I would ask. My preclear is about finished so it's time to make some decisions. Let me outline my planned use for this box. It will be my main file/media server. It will be running Plex Media Server. It will also be running at least one VM and maybe two. That first VM will be a Windows domain controller (w2k8r2) I have been running this domain since 1999 and it allows me to test and do things that I wouldn't be able to do otherwise. I am also planning on building another box to be a backup (or the primary) fileserver here. Not sure if I want that to be a FreeNAS box or not. ZFS has really piqued my interest. Anyways, one step at a time. I want to get comfortable with unRAID before heading down the FreeNAS road. I have a lot to learn, having been a Windows guy from the start... Anyone here using both unRAID and FreeNAS?
