The 428 does have the same hardware as a 426, just two more SATA slots, so I'm sure it will work on one. As for your other questions, the person who wrote the code isn't a member of this forum. You can try him over at GitHub or Reddit. Or members of the TrueNAS community may be able to help you on the issues of which pool to use and persistence across any updates.

Thanks! I did drop the same question on the Git page for
truenas-rn426-panel a couple of days ago, but I have not heard back yet. I'm sure he's just busy, and I'm impatient... :D
I'll have to try him on reddit. I never logged into there before
