Hey, I had a WD mycloud with a 2TB HDD from WD but it was pretty limited to my needs so I decided to take it apart and remove the 2TB Drive to reuse it.
I searched for ways to use the Drive to create a NAS and I found the Odroid HC1/2 (I went for the second one since the disk is 3.5").
I know this isn't the best NAS nor the fastest nor the best looking one nor the fastest one but it is more than I need so I went for it after seeing that it can easily reach 100-120MBps on transfers.
I saw this video where OMV is used and setup.

That mettod works for what I want but while I was looking at other NAS setups, I heard about ZFS and I think the video I pasted uses ext4.
I don't really know what the differences are and if it is possible to use ZFS.
I also heard that 1TB needs 1GB of RAM. The odroid has 2GB so it should work for ZFS if it's avaliable to use.
I came here to ask help to setup this properly and the best way since I'm not an expert and I want to learn with/from others.
Thanks!
