I’ll update the first post when necessary. The following posts contain some notes I took during development. You can test the whole flow first by writing to a virtual disk instead of an actual disk. To go back to the My Cloud OS, shutdown the NAS, unplug the FreeNAS boot usb drive and reboot. The hardware control script may get some important upgrades in the future so check for available updates. Without temperature monitoring it may melt / burn. Read the script.ĭon’t fry your NAS by turning the FAN off. Hardware control is available, but use it with common sense. However, a preview of the webgui without creating an array is harmless… Your drives will be fully wiped when you create a ZFS array. You can’t import your existing data as FreeNAS does not support ext4 file systems. # FAN=20 # better not to rely on this low fixed fan speed value Manual interaction with the hardware can be done with screen and this list of commands. add shutdown conditions, weather forecast, recent downloads, … You may want to tune it to your liking… e.g.

Here’s a hardware control script that can be used as a post-init script. Hardware controlĪs of FreeNAS 11.2 you can control the hardware (fan, lcd, leds, …) as the kernel supports the braswell UART and I2C device.

Here is a zipped image of FreeNAS 11.2-U3 you can flash to a USB drive of at least 16GB. Recommended to run with 2x 8GB DDR3L SODIMM ram.įreeNAS requires at least 8GB ram, so it probably doesn’t work on the PR2100.
