I'm still running TrueNAS Core, but I'm in the process of moving to the Community Edition. I'm doing a wholesale backup data, start from scratch, restore data to fix some initial choices in my zpool I wasn't happy with.
I'm dreading setting up Plex and Syncthing again so I've been dragging my feet. Seeing the comment about dreading each update isn't exactly lifting my feet out of the dirt.
Most SATA PCIe adapters will work out of the box now, but powering the drives is a little annoying. There are a few HATs or CM boards that have SATA ports that also distribute power, like the Penta SATA HAT.

Anyone know what options there are for hosting 5 or 6 external drives on a Raspberry Pi 5 to use RAIDZ2?

there's a typo in the word 'available' :)
They lost me with the FreeBSD to Linux switch.
Since switching to the debian version, I have learned to dread every update.
What issues are you facing in the transition of TrueNAS from FreeBSD to Debian?
I've been on Debian since the switch and had no issues when OS updates. The kubernetes to docker transition was a little bumpy however.
I did not like when NAS4FREE had to change their name because of something....
The new name XigmaNAS did not inspire me to continue.
Then FREENAS changes name to TrueNAS.
Boy what a twisted wreck.
In the meanwhile I learn NFS and ditch the GUI prima-donnas.
I really dropped NAS/SENSE when the GUI switched from lightttpd to Bootcamp...
NANOBSD was dropped around the same era... What a shame.
It was a good run, Back when you could upgrade without worry.
Is TrueNAS FreeBSD or is it Linux now?
Linux. Specifically Debian.

Debian.
