Not sure what decision I'll make right now, but I *really* appreciate everyone's help in focusing my options.Hi there! I wanted to inquire about the process about potentially upgrading/migrating my server from Windows Home Server 2011 to Windows 10. unRAID and Open Media Vault both look like they match my basic needs, while WinServer 2016 Essentials looks to be a nearly exact replacement for what I have right now. UPDATE: Thanks for all the responses - I definitely feel like I have some better options at this point. The bottom line: aside from Amahi, what other options do I have? Can I get the list above with Ubuntu server and downloaded apps? What do you all suggest? Is a NAS OS worth it? I feel like I have done days worth of research, but finding a solid replacement for WHS is challenging. Incremental/differential backups (wishlist - my family has more or less acclimatized to remote storage of files, but there's always a small risk of local data loss).I'd like to just add a drive and have that seamlessly integrate with existing share volumes Cost- & time-wise, it's difficult for me to commit to a static RAID array (R5?) as my libraries are continually growing. Media streaming (I use Plex currently, and have used Kodi/XBMC in the past) and shifting transcoding to the server side - the HP isterrible at that, with no dedicated GPU.Web console & web access to file shares and administration.I plan to install a tape backup system as well, for remote-stored recovery. I currently have a relatively new, refurbished PC with a dedicated GPU to use as the replacement box. I'm also not excited about using Fedora, and would rather use Ubuntu as a base. To me, the features of Amahi are a perfect fit, but the last dev update was over a year ago and Greyhole presents real risks of data loss for my current uses. I've had a lot of experience with Ubuntu and Debian, and i'm hoping to shift to a similar use-case with Ubuntu server. My current setup includes an HP WHS box (2nd/3rd gen), and WHS 2011, with StableBit's DrivePool. Was a real fan of OG WHS when it came out, but was disappointed when drive pooling was discontinued. I am currently using WHS 2011 and it's obviously showing its age.

Looking for some advice and will try to be short and to the point.
