1.) I'm considering FreeNAS but there's other flavors out there, like NAS4Free and OpenMediaVault just to name a few. I know there's a learning curve but are they mostly similar or does one stand out for some particular reason?
2.) HDDs come in different flavors and NAS specific drives are more costly. But I'm wondering if this is just marketing? Would using a a standard desktop HDD, that doesn't specifically indicate its designed to be used in a NAS system, be unwise?
