Features
This feature allows users to set up Virtual Machines (VMs) that run alongside TrueNAS.
What is Virtualization?
This logical device provides interconnection between TrueNAS and network it's on.
What is a network interface?
This pool type offers no redundancy but provides the most storage capacity.
What is a stripe?
A device with a spinning or solid-state disk that stores data.
What are drives?
This 24-bay upgradeable and expandable platform line is one of iXsystems' longest-running and stable products.
What is the M-Series?
Sharing protocol that supports a wide range of permissions, security settings, and advanced permissions (ACLs) on Windows and other systems.
What is SMB?
This network method a bridge combines multiple network connections into a single aggregate network interface.
What is a (Network) Bridge?
This optional pool feature reserves a drive that inserts into a pool when an active drive has failed.
What is a (Hot) Spare?
These devices provide redundant power to a TrueNAS system.
What is a power supply (unit)?
This family of platforms spans multiple highly-customizable single-controller form factors.
What is the R-Series?
This feature allows for quick and easy integration of third-party software and TrueNAS.
What is/are Apps?
This networking feature allows users to check the log, access the BIOS setup, and boot the system without physical access.
What is IPMI?
A file system within a data storage pool that contains files, directories, and children.
What is a dataset?
The component that stores the TrueNAS operating system.
What is a boot device?
These devices allow customers to increase the drive capacity of the TrueNAS system.
What are Expansion Shelves?
This fundamental TrueNAS feature is designed for long-term storage of data, indefinitely scaled datastore sizes with zero data loss, and high configurability.
What is (Open)ZFS?
This internet protocol uses eight groups of four hexadecimal digits for identification and location.
What is IPv6?
VDEV layout that has disks reserved for data parity and allows a set number of disks to fail without data loss to the pool.
What is RAID(z1, z2, z3, dRaid)?
This component controls all communications between the various components of a system storage controller.
What is a motherboard?
24 bay NVMe storage platform offered in single node and HA configurations.
What is the F-Series?
TrueNAS 25.04 feature returning from CORE that grants users in-order, lossless delivery of raw block data via the iSCSI protocol.
What is Fibre Channel?
This virtualized network connection uses a parent interface to provide a partitioned and isolated domain at the data link layer.
What is a VLAN?
This SSD feature distributes the total number of writes and erases across more flash blocks on the drive.
What is SLOG over-provisioning?
This PCIe expansion device allows customers to expand the total capacity of their TrueNAS system.
What is a SAS HBA?
Low-cost "entry-point" HA platform with tri-mode support for SAS, SATA, and NVMe drives.
What is H-Series?
