Further, in order to install TrueNAS, I recommend to remove the pre-installed USB drive from Terramaster installed on the inner side, that contains the Terramaster OS, unplug it and store it, in case you want to send back the device.

## Operating System
While originally the NAS was running TrueNAS Core in it, it was switched to TrueNAS Scale in order to benefit from the automated certificate Management in TrueNAS Scale and run on Let's Encrypt certificates.
## Power usage
## Power usage
In my tests with no, but just test workload, the average power usage of this NAS was 31W idle using TrueNAS Core, with peaks during usage to up to 39W when having disk activity. During boot up there were some further peaks, I didn't record any further. There is a "natural" boundary of 90w due to the included power supply.
