I recently installed that on a tablet. While, there are some features that don't work very well on the tablet. It looks great, and performs well.
Common sense is admitting there is cause and effect and that you can exert some control over what you understand.

I have an Odroid HC2 running OMV, with a 10Tb Seagate HDD.
For 10Tb, compact, power efficient and fast network storage. I will admit not very data safe, but everything is backed up to off-line hard-drives anyway.

I have too many drives to use a SBC for OMV. I wouldn't think a SBC would have enough oomph to support the requirements (certainly not a Pi anyway - 1gb RAM and USB 2.0 are not enough), but I've seen people saying they're doing it, so what do I know? I'm booting my Pis from usb, and I've read that things get weird when you have multiple USB storage devices when you're booting from USB. No personal experience, just heard stuff.

The HC2 is based on the Odroid XU4, its basically a Rpi with extra everything.
Gigabit Ethernet and USB 3 make it a great choice for OMV

It still doesn't have enough ports for the number of drives I have, and USB3 still doesn't match up to a direct SATA connection.
I think Pis are severely lacking in hardware, but they want to keep the price low. I personally think that's false economy. They need to up their hardware game.

the new generation of boards has independent pcie data output path (from the network or USB one) that can be adapted to a sata port.
Of course they may not be able to handle multi large disks well or at all ...

So...what does OMV give you that Samba does not, anyway?
That Pandora dealie looks more like a NOC syslog-type tool (like Solarwinds Orion) than a network security monitor.
If you're looking for traffic monitoring, you should take a look at Security Onion or ROCK NSM.

OMV is more than just a samba sharing mechanism.
I just wanted to put my spare Pi to work, and I figured network monitoring would be cool. I have no real need for it.

Made it back by public transport and the only thing I remember of the trip home is the bottlo was closed.
Woke up this morning hangover free, finished a day at work, then come home this evening to find yet another CCC I can't solve. That's about 3,000 in a row.>

"TESTICLES" is 9 letters - but it's not that either. Nor is it any other part of the "Gentlemans Vegetables" set.

Hangover free, after a night of drinking a sign of alchoism?

No, just means he hasn't sobered up yet.

Nah, went out for lunch with the family and an Uncle and Aunt. Kicked off Midday and was out of there by 18:30 - 19:00. Had to get up for work today, all done and after 20:00 over here now.

No. For me it always meant that my active military service was not over yet.
I have lived with several Zen masters - all of them were cats.
His last invention was an evil Lasagna. It didn't kill anyone, and it actually tasted pretty good.

One of the key components of a "hang over" is dehydration. So, if you can manage to stay hydrated throughout the night, you will feel much better the next day.
When I used to drink (heavily), I would drink a glass of water every hour or so, and would start the night off with a vitamin B complex. I was able to function the next day quite well in fact, with little to no "hang over".

Is the correct answer - you are up tomorrow!

Well when I first looked about an hour ago my instinct was that "this" = "clue", but I didn't make the connection at first. So I convinced myself that "promise" was the definition part, especially as "this angry" is 9 letters. After a minute of failed anagram attempts I gave up.
Then I came back to check what the answer was (as I assumed it would have been solved), it still wasn't so I gave it another try with my original thought of "this = clue". It still took me a few minutes to get it though... I think because I know them as "CCC" is the reason why "crossword" took a while to come to mind.
I still have one in the bank I can use for tomorrow, but after my recent one that went unsolved I fear it may suffer the same fate... I guess we shall see.
