Now that the RPi 5 exposes a PCIe interface, I have a feeling we're going to see a lot more folks adopting it as a NAS.

If the drives aren’t powered by the pi, then aren’t there going to be grounding issues with a NAS?
If only FreeNAS (TrueNAS now?) would run on it
Does it not? what's the Pi missing? I assume truenas scale (the linux based one) would work better.
As far as I know there isn’t an ARM build of TrueNAS but I could be wrong
TrueNAS (the BSD one) also works fine when Virtualized under Linux
