I passed the whole raw disk in theory, but I’ve read that even if you do that, it’s still virtualized somehow. But I don’t know enough about it, I’m just basing this on the research I’ve done so far. About skipping TrueNAS, maybe you’re right, but if I also want to set up SMB shares? Is there a tool or something that makes it easy for someone with limited experience? It would also need to handle replication of data, and the advantage of ZFS Replication over using something like rsync, is that you can simply push the delta between snapshots, instead of replacing entire files, or at least that’s how I’ve understood this.
