In 2022 / 2023 you could also consider using Proxmox VE or TrueNAS Scale, where you get much more than a simple NAS.
I've recently built a small Home-Server with an old Fujitsu D3417-B2 Board, 32GB ECC RAM and Xeon E3 1225v5, 2TB Samsung Pro and Fractal Define Mini C for about 400 Bucks total (used) and can now enjoy fully encrypted ZFS Proxmox with LXC containers and Device Passthrough running 9.4W Idle.
I did not expect this to work that well, but I'm pretty happy with this config and using zfs-auto-snapshot from xshock[1] and OpenMediaVault LXC container from tteck[2] just for shares I don't think I would switch to a pure NAS again.
You have to teach yourself some zfs command line kung fu, though.

- sandreas 4y agoI use the Samba Share option for file based history of zfs and the .zfs directory option to have access to the files. But httm looks cool, I'll definetely take a look, thank you very much.
