If u transition from qts to truenas, the LCD remains messed up and turn off. PS: forgot to mention, the other big hurdle was the LCD on some QNAP models that have that feature. Always test first to check it works as it should. Obviously test this out with test shares, files/folders to understand how it works, BEFORE you commit to it as your backup/restore plan. To get that to work i had to use the HBS active rsync to initiate a PULL from the truenas to the QNAP, which essentially got the recovery to work. While i can use HBS to perform the backup from the QNAP qts to the truenas, i could not do a restore from the truenas to the qnap.

Even following instructions i still couldn't get it to work.

Based on comments in forum apparently it works, but for someone not too technically savvy like me (and probly most people), it's easy to get this setup. The toughest part for me with truenas was getting the rsync to work between a truenas and the QNAP. If you need a refresher you can always refer back to those videos, but you will essentially get a general idea of where to go to do what eventually over time :} This is the best and fastest way to figure out how to setup your QNAP using truenas. What helped me a lot was the youtube videos that go through the initial setup and exploring other options of truenas. It works very different to in a QNAP in some of these settings, so it takes a while to familiarize. My experience with truenas was a good one, but it took some time to learn about how it works, cause some parts isn't simple to figure out, especially with the permission rights for smb shares created. Basic intro to truenas, for a basic setup for the new comers to it from QNAP
