Yeah I have the lifetime license from before they switched to a yearly subscription, for me as I was pretty new to the whole thing it just made it super simple to get up and running, now I’m setting up dockers in compose so still learning but being able to just go to the community app store and use the templates to get things up and running right away was super nice, and the ability to upgrade drives as you go as well

Nighed@feddit.uk 3 days agoI only know of it from LTT videos I think, not exactly the best endorsement!
That’s a lot of data (relatively)! Are you paying for the unraid license yearly, or just sitting on an old version?

I also started off with a converted gaming PC. I went with unraid because there was a simple path to upgrading my drives. I started off with 1 and 2 TB drives and eventually upgraded over the years to 12+ TB drives.
From my brief research back then growing a pool in freenas was a headache where upgrading in unraid was easy.
