DietPi vs Openmediavault

[dcaccount]

Hello,
I have used for months my Rpi3 with openmediavault as home ftp Server to have an ftp backup of the video recording.

Everything works but I am looking for a lighther OS.

My question is if DietPi is really lighther and less resource taking than openmediavault and therefore worth changing and reconfiguring the system.

Thanks for advising,
Daniele

OMV requires a webserver stack to function, DietPi doesn’t. Due to this, and the many lightweight scripts/tools that DietPi has to achieve what you can do in OMV, DietPi will be the lighter (and more efficient) OS.

Either way, i’am going to be biased Although, dont take my word for it, try DietPi
