This video tutorial should be all you need to get your first install of TrueNAS Core up and running. I'll take you through creating a USB Install disk, Installing TrueNAS on your server, creating a Storage Pool, creating a Windows network share, configuring a user and permissions, and connecting for the first time.

But first... What am I drinking???

It's been 95+ for the last week, so I went for a Pilsner this time around. It's Perle Haggard from Ex Novo Brewing (Portland, OR), a 'German Style' Pilsner (their words, not mine), clocking in at 5.1%. In the words of Maurice Moss... "It's certainly a beer."
