Open and Nvidia in one sentence is a nice oxymoron.

Not sure about NetBSD - but FreeBSD does WINE really well.

The details are in other article I linked to - here:

Seems that zVault 'did not make it' - https://zvault.io/ - even the page is gone now.

Lets hope FreeCORE will make it longer.

Some comparison between Linux based TrueNAS SCALE and FreeBSD based TrueNAS CORE here:

Its both actually.

This is strictly the FreeBSD part:

    freebsd # gpart backup ada1 | gpart restore nda0
    
    freebsd # gpart backup ada1 | gpart restore nda1

The ZFS part comes later :)

The same article for FreeBSD:

- Install FreeBSD in defaults with Auto (ZFS) option.

- Do not thing more.

- You are resilient for power outages.

Cold migration.

Stop machine, transfer VM to other host, start machine.

Did the fixed [ENTER] (or double-click) in 'Save as...' dialog finally?

> macOS userland tools on FreeBSD kernel

I do not have anything against NextBSD - but that 'macOS userland tools on FreeBSD kernel' term sounds as stupid as it can - knowing that Apple pulled FreeBSD userland as part of creating Mac OS X :D

Which generally means: 'FreeBSD userland tools on FreeBSD kernel' ...

No ZFS no problem :)

Nope.

TrueOS does not exists anymore.

Try GhostBSD - it now comes with XLibre X11 and ZSH by default.

Sure.

2011:

- W520/T520 (maximum resolution: 1920x1080)

- T420s (maximum resolution: 1600x900)

- X220 (maximum resolution: 1366x768)

2012:

- W530/T530 (maximum resolution: 1920x1080)

- T430s (maximum resolution: 1600x900)

- X230 (maximum resolution: 1366x768)

2018:

- T480 (maximum resolution: 1920x1080 or more)

2020:

- T14 GEN1 (Intel) (maximum resolution: 1920x1080 or more)

- T14 GEN1 (AMD) (maximum resolution: 1920x1080 or more)

Newer models also work like the light ThinkPad X1 Carbon GEN5/GEN6/GEN7/GEN8/... for example.

The good thing about T530 (and T520) is that You can put there the same Quad Core CPU that W520/W530 has :)

I own these and they also work great with FreeBSD:

ThinkPads:

- W520/W530/T520/T530/X220/X230/T420s

- T480

- T14 GEN1 (Intel)

- T14 GEN1 (AMD)

I needed to replace MediaTek WiFi card on T14 (AMD) into some Intel WiFi one.

Hope that helps.
