Now that the RPi 5 exposes a PCIe interface, I have a feeling we're going to see a lot more folks adopting it as a NAS.

If the drives aren’t powered by the pi, then aren’t there going to be grounding issues with a NAS?

If only FreeNAS (TrueNAS now?) would run on it

Does it not? what's the Pi missing? I assume truenas scale (the linux based one) would work better.

TrueNAS (the BSD one) also works fine when Virtualized under Linux

As far as I know there isn’t an ARM build of TrueNAS but I could be wrong
