HP Z4 G4 serial number [Personal Information Removed] does not disable Secure Boot in BIOS, and updating the BIOS to the latest version did not help. Please advise how to disable Secure Boot for installing and running the TrueNAS server?

The Z4 G4 bios simulator shows the following

However, you really need to enable secure boot. If you are running trueNAS-scale then this discussion may help

 

I gave up on modding desktop system for NAS and got a cheap synology several years ago.

There is such a feature in the BIOS. Changes made with Secure Boot are not saved after exiting the BIOS

Secure boot only works with GPT partitions.  You can convert from GPT to MBR or, better, replace the boot drive and do a clean install of whatever but using MBR partition instead of GPT.  I assume this will work as secure boot requires GPT partition.

 

You  might consider installing synology instead of true NAS
