Introduction
After several research, I decided to install TrueNAS on bare metal Machine, following configuration I used as minimum to start my Home Lab Project:
Dell PowerEdge T110 II
Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E3-1220 V2 @ 3.10GHz
16GB DDR3
250GB SSD for Boot Drive
4×500 GB HDD for Data Storage
TrueNAS-13.0-U5.3
Although installing TrueNAS on Proxmox sounds very cost effective but I tried to use physical server to utilize maximum performance benefits.
Overall Steps
The TrueNAS official install documentation had very detailed description with screenshots. I basically followed the steps in the doc.
Following are brief summary of steps I used to installed TrueNAS Core.
