The process involves updating the Pi's EEPROM, installing UEFI bootloader support, and working around hardware limitations like missing Ethernet support. While functional, current UEFI limitations prevent using PCIe switches, making single-device storage controllers the only viable option for now. 23 1 2. 2 [](/posts/truenas-on-arm-is-finally-a-thing-yw4lxj1ry "TrueNAS on Arm is finally a thing") Article Jeff Geerling · 1y TrueNAS on Arm is finally a thing ARM processors are becoming viable for NAS servers, with community developers creating unofficial TrueNAS builds for ARM architecture. While official TrueNAS support remains limited to x86, a community fork now enables TrueNAS installation on ARM devices like Raspberry Pi 5 and Ampere Altra servers. This development addresses the growing interest in energy-efficient ARM-based storage solutions, though UEFI and SystemReady support challenges persist across different ARM boards. 20 3. 3 [](/posts/system76-built-the-fastest-windows-arm-pc-kef3spnnw "System76 built the fastest Windows Arm PC") Article Jeff Geerling · 2y System76 built the fastest Windows Arm PC System76 introduced the Thelio Astra, a powerful workstation-class ARM PC designed for streamlined autonomous vehicle development but suitable for any computing enthusiast. It features a 128-core Ampere Altra Max CPU, remarkable cooling mechanisms, and supports both Linux and Windows 11\. While the lack of front IO and some case design issues are drawbacks, its multi-core performance and quiet operation make it stand out. The Thelio Astra is an impressive addition to the ARM workstation market, capable of running demanding applications smoothly. 17 4. 4 [](/posts/i-finally-know-how-cpus-work-w-casey-muratori--fkewquryh "I finally know how CPUs work (w/ Casey Muratori)") Video Theo - t3․gg · 2y I finally know how CPUs work (w/ Casey Muratori) The post discusses the complexity of CPU workings, focusing on how hardware and software interact. It features a conversation with Casey Muratori about the differences between high-level programming instructions and the lower-level micro operations that CPUs execute. They explore why hardware companies keep their internal workings secret, the misconceptions around instruction sets, and the importance of understanding CPU architecture for programmers. The discussion emphasizes the significance of efficient coding practices and the evolving landscape of JavaScript and hardware interactions. 10 [See all ARM archives](/tags/arm/best-of) ```json {"@context":"https://schema.org","@graph":[{"@type":"Organization","@id":"https://daily.dev/#organization","name":"daily.dev","url":"https://daily.dev","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://daily.dev/apple-touch-icon.png","width":180,"height":180},"sameAs":["https://twitter.com/dailydotdev","https://github.com/dailydotdev","https://www.linkedin.com/company/daily-dev-ltd"]},{"@type":"WebSite","@id":"https://daily.dev/#website","url":"https://daily.dev","name":"daily.dev","publisher":{"@id":"https://daily.dev/#organization"},"potentialAction":{"@type":"SearchAction","target":{"@type":"EntryPoint","urlTemplate":"https://daily.dev/search?q={search_term_string}"},"query-input":"required name=search_term_string"}}]} {"@context":"https://schema.org","@graph":[{"@type":"CollectionPage","@id":"https://daily.dev/tags/arm/best-of/2025#page","url":"https://daily.dev/tags/arm/best-of/2025","name":"Best ARM Posts of 2025","description":"The most upvoted ARM posts of 2025, curated by the daily.dev community.","isPartOf":{"@type":"WebSite","url":"https://daily.dev"}},{"@type":"ItemList","@id":"https://daily.dev/tags/arm/best-of/2025#items","numberOfItems":4,"itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"url":"https://daily.dev/posts/how-to-install-truenas-on-a-raspberry-pi-hkm1yafuo","name":"How to install TrueNAS on a Raspberry Pi"},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"url":"https://daily.dev/posts/truenas-on-arm-is-finally-a-thing-yw4lxj1ry","name":"TrueNAS on Arm is finally a thing"},{"@type":"ListItem","position":3,"url":"https://daily.dev/posts/system76-built-the-fastest-windows-arm-pc-kef3spnnw","name":"System76 built the fastest Windows Arm PC"},{"@type":"ListItem","position":4,"url":"https://daily.dev/posts/i-finally-know-how-cpus-work-w-casey-muratori--fkewquryh","name":"I finally know how CPUs work (w/ Casey Muratori)"}]},{"@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"name":"Home","item":"https://daily.dev"},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"name":"Tags","item":"https://daily.dev/tags"},{"@type":"ListItem","position":3,"name":"ARM","item":"https://daily.dev/tags/arm"},{"@type":"ListItem","position":4,"name":"Best of","item":"https://daily.dev/tags/arm/best-of"},{"@type":"ListItem","position":5,"name":"2025"}]}]} ```
