NAS with Btrfs-based Rockstor
Rock On!
Conclusions
Thanks to Rockstor, you can easily set up free and powerful network-attached storage, which can then be supplemented with additional functionality by expansion packages. With the self-built version, you can extend your NAS as needed. NAS with a Btrfs filesystem is unusual and provides the NAS with many professional functions. If you want to run Rockstor in production environments, you need to buy access to the commercial updates.
Rockstor offers a few more interesting features, as well; for example, the NAS can quickly replicate the stored data and inform you by email if any problems crop up.
