Thank you. That reinforces what the documentation states on the matter, which is nice.
I'm a bit concerned about the stability aspect, since as I intimated above, my NAS-lite is the data storage for our household. I don't have a RAID enclosure yet (I am still saving for that), so I'd rather err on the side of stability/reliability for read/write to this datastore.
Is the ksmbd unreliable to where it might corrupt data, or just drop connections under heavy load?
As for the fancy stuff... I am using the drive as a target for Windows File History for 4 machines. I do not believe this requires anything other than NTFS as a target volume, so I don't THINK I'll be needing the Shadow Volume Copy support mentioned here:
