S3 manages data using object storage architecture.

Having large numbers of files (>100K for instance) in a single bucket with no sub-directories is not recommended. It can harm performance and cause stability issues.

Use the S3 screen to configure S3 on your TrueNAS.

MinIO deprecated Access key and Secret key. MINIO_ROOT USER arguments and their values replace Access key. MINIO_ROOT_PASSWORD arguments and their values replace Secret key. For the ROOT_USER value, use a name up to 20 characters. For the ROOT_PASSWORD, use a string of 8 to 40 randomized characters. MinIO recommends using a long password string of unique random characters.
