Does anyone use FreeNAS (A FreeBSD derivative for NAS) in their home media server?  

If yes, can you share your experience?  Thanks.

I use nas4free which works very well as home media server and in addition, it has BT capability. The experience is very good!

It is a very good free storage sharing but preferable to be used in smaller scale.

Agree with Fireinhell

@Nimo2012
I'm curious why you chose NAS4FREE over FREENAS?   
Btw, FREENAS has Bittorrent too (transmission)

My requirement is pretty simple :  I want to build a single server with the following functions:
1. NAS
2. media server and do media streaming to TVs, phones,  and tablets  (<10 devices).  For this purpose, I probably will run PLEX server.
3. run Bittorrent
