XigmaNAS is Really a great NAS OS. We use XigmaNAS and zfs for our really huge Plexamp music collection. After set-up and configure the server last year, i can say that i'm better of with xigmanas than truenas. It seems lighter, it has also more options and services out of the box. Overall, couldn't be happier about the switch to xigmanas, I had never heard of them until last year on reddit, i also hope they never switch to linux either.I highly recommend XigmaNAS.

XigmaNAS is one of the best NAS Systems out there. While using very litte server resources it provides more options in some areas than FreeNAS (e.g. optional and selectable statistics). Minimized write access on system flash storage makes it great for simple flash media installs like USB sticks. Releases are very up to date: Feb. 2021 FreeBSD 12.2 is already available. Experienced users can customize the full version while novice users are on a safe track with the emedded release. If you need a data tank like me, XigmaNAS is the way to go: GUI, ZFS Redundancy, Windows File Sharing, full hardware resource utilization and FreeBSD reliability

Solid, effective, versatile. I've integrated two XigmaNAS servers into my LAN and they help as backup, multimedia server, and more. The system is *extremely* stable. ZFS is rock solid, and with mirroring I've been able to replace dying disks without losing a byte. The embedded system runs from a USB stick (!), so your data are totally decoupled if the motherboard dies or something terrible happens to anything but the disks themselves. In case you need help, the forums are generally very helpful, with a friendly environment. Highly recommended.

Best ZFS NAS Based, need less resources than FreeNAS, and is rock solid stable. now wit RootOnZFS and beadm that have the advantages of a ZFS boot and you can revert to old dataset in case on new one fail.

I have been using for about 3 years. Currently on a proxmox server as a vm. It has been a stable part of my environment and has served as both a backup solution, and file sharing system. Effective and flexible, highly recommended.
