FAQ
Q
Why does FreeNAS need so much RAM?
A
FreeNAS itself uses not so much, depending on the number of enabled services. But ZFS requires RAM for caching, which is critical for performance. If memory is not enough to store all required metadata, then data access becomes slower.
Q
Can FreeNAS run on 4gb RAM?
A
At least 4GB of RAM. FreeNAS documentation recommends a minimum of 6GB of RAM for best performance with ZFS. We found 4GB worked just fine. A general rule of thumb is 1GB of RAM for every 1TB of storage.
Q
Is FreeNAS Safe and Secure?

FreeNAS is based on the highly secure FreeBSD operating system and follows security best practices in development. However, FreeNAS is not designed as security software and it depends on being protected from hostile traffic by a properly configured firewall.
