Well, I've only been experimenting with FreeNAS for 3 weeks, just about to go live so decided to upgrade and learn the new version before I finally commit data.



Got to this page because I've lost the most important dashboard panel for me - disks and the disk temp. Appreciate that they might not be real time, but you had to click on each disk individually anyway, so that changed it.



My other observations echo what's already been said. Panels are way too big and sparse. Sure they are pretty but this is an overview admin screen it's there to give the important messages at a glance. Having to scroll up and down to see half the entries defeats the purpose for me.



Don't see the point of the pool panels. Don't see the point of the network panels. I have 2 pools and 5 interfaces, I could fit the same info for both pools and all five i/f in a grid on one panel for each type of info. OK, I'm not an advanced user, maybe someone else will get something out of these.



It feels like form over function is the main design criteria. Yes it looks gorgeous but that's really low down for me compared to the utility of the info presented and the direct responses available.



Sorry, this sounds really negative, still like the overall product.
