Its new homelab time. And with that, potentially a new OS time too.

I currently am very happy with Debian and Docker. The only issue is I am brand new to using data redundancy. I have a 2 bay NAS I'll use, and I want the two HDDs to be in raid 1.

Now I could definitely just use ZFS or BTRFS with Debian, and be able to use Docker just like I do currently.

Or I could use a dedicated NAS OS. That would help me with the raid part of this, but a requirement is Docker.

Any recommendations?

I've been happy with unraid, super simple to use and the community apps makes it easy to find and install docker containers

Unraid is great and I have been using it for over a decade now, but a paid OS on a 2bay nas seems excessive

Yeah plus the pricing change where you only get so many updates now kind of bucks but it was bound to happen
