FreeBSD
Dear Sirs;
I have a 8core, 32 GB ram server I built myself. AMD cpu, with
Supermicro motherboard. I want to use FreeNAS as a database system,
and I'm wondering what it will cost to use FreeBSD with FreeNAS. I see
the Version I would like is $40 for a four CD set, but that does not
mean I get to use the server version of it. What is the server version
going to cost?
Sincerely,
Mark T. Evans
FreeNAS is effectively a FreeBSD distribution emphasizing storage. It
is open source and free of cost:

The CDs are nice, but you can download an ISO also. iXSystems have
TrueNAS, which is costly. My understanding is that FreeNAS is a
subset
of TrueNAS. See:
http://www.ixsystems.com/storage/ix/truenas/
for more information.

They also sell a FreeNAS for home / Small office installs that is vary
reasonably priced, I have been hoping to have enough spare cash on hand
this winter to buy one as an upgrade my existing FreeNAS box that was
built form spare PC parts with a few new hard drives thrown in ever
since I have noticed the new product on their website.
