TrueNAS isn't picky at all. Any old hardware that you have around with either an external thunderbolt DAS or a few NVEME SSDs to PCI-E adapter will work fine, for much cheaper than those pre-build NAS. Just make sure to add plenty of ram for ZFS. I dont know any NAS brands that aren't overpriced, and their "added value" is the horrible software, if you are wiping out their OS for TrueNAS, DIY hardware is likely the way to go. If you do find some good "pre-built" TrueNAS hardware, please do share though :)
