I performed a reset following the power outage, which altered my IP address. After the reset, I accessed the web GUI from another device and imported the current pool containing two datasets. However, I’m unable to retrieve the previous datasets using Windows sharing. If I create a new dataset and map the drive, access via SMB becomes possible. How can I extract the data from the old dataset?

Keep critical IPs fixed in your network setup. Use a UPS even for brief power interruptions. Restore all pool data if you imported the entire dataset previously. Save your TrueNAS setup backups so you can rebuild everything on fresh hardware. I transferred all drives to MoBo, updated the CPU, and performed a config restore without losing any pools. Regularly back up configurations—perhaps monthly—to another machine or external drive.

Set a fixed IP on your router for Truenoa and Plex, but the web interface shows it’s missing from the drive.

It seems you're experiencing a SAMBA share problem. Ensure the service is active and your access rights are clear.

Verify the existence of SMB shares once more. If present, consider recreating them.
