My setup is much more modest: 64GB Non-ECC DDR4 (32GB x 2), 12 x 2TB SATA SSD, LSI 9220 8i HBA in IT Mode, i5-12500T. I am also in the middle of setting up a full 3-2-1 backup solution using HDD. Storage prices have really dropped tremendously, and for the home user with less than 100TB in storage needs there's a ton of affordable options to do it yourself nowadays. Cheers, team!

@TrogdorBurnin8or 10 месяцев назад

I have watched a ton of these, and finally this one is EXACTLY what I needed explored - a maximalist one-box NAS. Thank you. I will note that for those who aren't in this price bracket but need hundreds of terabytes, you can get a used 16-port HBA, the Adaptec 71605, for $40 plus a $10 aftermarket blower plus $50 in cables. And that you can get 18tb factory reconditioned drives from serverpartsdeals for $180.

@wpgspecb 10 месяцев назад

Considering I just bought new 18TB reds with 5 year warranty for $240 USD / $319 CAD. That "deal" is not worth it.

@LiveType 10 месяцев назад

Solid plan. Pick up 2 more spares than you think you need for those reconditioned drives. So if you're picking up 8 drives, my general guideline is 1 spare per 4 drives (Linus did 1 per 3 but I find that's overkill for home nas solutions) get 4 as spares (make sure you test all of them). I've used said reconditioned drives before and they seem to have more issues than new drives, so just eat the cost and get some spares. Also, make sure for the love of god you have fresh air blowing over those drives. Heat kills these things. I was a little surprised linus didn't populate the entire front of the case with fans. Maybe it's cold enough where that's unnecessary? I don't know. You want to keep them below 40c. 10-35c is ideal. I know the spec says 50c but that's too much to operate at 24/7. They degrade at significantly faster speeds above 40c.

@Skyline_NTR 10 месяцев назад

Used drives are "fine" as long as you're ok with that level of risk tolerance... or buy so many that a few lemons (and the time lost rebuilding the array) will be an inconvenience at worst

Adding a small fan to an HBA is not as optional as one might assume. I was getting random parity errors in unraid until I added a small fan to the heatsink on the HBA. The disks checked out fine but kept getting errors, sometimes more, sometimes less. And now after adding the fan its fine. Similar to Gen5 M.2 controllers, sometimes heat just makes for errors even tho it still "works". Obviously case airflow will play a role as well.

@opensourcetechtraining64 10 месяцев назад

Having worked in a lot of workstation, server shops, I can definitely say adding the fan to the LSI / Broadcom HBA is a good call. They can definitely be ill served in a warm environment and burn out with just the stock passive coolers. Also most of them are really only spec'd to work in rack mount units that are okay with faster, noisier fans. Very much agree with the RAID config - RAIDZ2 split right down the middle. Has a bit of room to upgrade, thought with just 16 drives max, they can't really upgrade with another 6-wide vdev. Probably need to rely on the back up system then change our the config to like 2 x 8 wide RAIDZ2 and ZFS transfer all the data back then upgrade the next system or something - possibly spin-up an S3 object back before all that is being done - like with Backblaze, etc. Agree, nonetheless as going to 3 x 4-wide probably would hurt more just to save an equal amount of capacity in the future. Otherwise, it may just make more sense to ditch the current chassis to something larger if they ever need it. Also, TrueNAS Core should have worked fine, unsure why SCALE was used - Linux is awesome, Core is the more tested platform, and unless they need Docker or KVM VMs, it would work fine.

@juliansbrickcity5083 7 месяцев назад

The case has room for 18 drives so a third 6wide vdev fits just fine. But the stupid thing is using a 16i hba in the build and only using 4ports of that and connecting 8 drives to the motherboard. I totaly agree with you on the truenas scale choice. But core is sometimes not good with bleeding edge systems and thats what LTT uses mostly. Probably the thats why they using scale because its what they used to.

@gren99 10 месяцев назад

I was in the process of sourcing a case for my Plex server when the 7 XL was released and got one as soon as it was in stock. My general config is much the same, though I’m only at 8 HDDs atm (room to grow!) Using the rubber grommets on the drive trays is absolutely a must. I forgot to put them on one hdd and it drove me crazy. The box is so heavy, I eventually printed out some caster mounts for it and it made the occasional movement of the box so much easier.

@BrianMWPG 9 месяцев назад

That is an insane build. Just the motherboard on the build in this video is almost as much as my entire initial build was. The case is a good value though - I went with a Rosewill rack mount style case that could hold 15 drives - if a case like this had been around I'd have likely used it. I built my FreeNAS (now rebranded to TrueNAS) in 2013 for $1,726 CAD with 6 HDDs - then upgraded it in 2016 with more ram, upgraded PSU, an HBA & 6 more drives for $1,572 - it's now been running for 10 years (in 2020 I also replaced the initial 6 drives with larger 8TB drives one at a time to increase the pool size - only took 3-4 days).

I have the Fractal Define R7 XL case and it works great for this use case. Word to the wise, get lots of fans. With three 140mm fans and one 120mm fan on the front pulling air in over the drives and three 140mm exhaust fans on the top and back, most of my drives were getting up to 50°C. I added two 140mm and one 120mm fans on the other side of the hard drives and temps dropped down to around 30°C, but the two drives closest to the PSU get pretty hot still since there isn't a lot of airflow down there. My system has 16 5400-7200RPM drives installed, the speed doesn't seem to make a difference on the temps much in this configuration. Opening the front panel up can result in a 2-5°C temp difference on the drives with all these fans, even more so with fewer fans.

In August a year ago (2022) I finally decided to build my own computer because I was tired of the old Dell XPS Desktop I had at the time. The Dell XPS 8910 had a Core i5 6400 and a GTX 1050 Ti (originally a GT 730). The XPS was loud, hot, and had hardly any room for upgradability. I didn;t know if I was going to be able to put together my own PC because i had never done it before. Ultimately, from the countless hour of watching LTT videos I was completely able to figure out how to put together my own PC. My original configuration was a MSI Mag B660M Motar motherboard, Intel Core i5 12600 CPU, 500GB boot m.2 SSD, 4TB of Spanned HDDs, 16GB of Corsair vengence RAM, A GTX 1650 Super GPU, A Cooler Master MasterLiquid ML240 AIO, all in a NZXT H510 case. As of recently, I took off the two RGB fans from the AIO and the case fans and swaped them for ARGB fans from CoolerMaster, got two more sticks of Corsair RAM for a total of 32GB of RAM, and Upgraded to a RTX 3060 Ti (the company I bout the RTX card from was all out of the 3060 Ti so I got a 3070 for the same price ($100 cheaper than MSRP!)). In the end, your videos helped me a lot and I didn't even relize it until I finally put together my awesome New PC. Thanks a lot Linus for the endless videos that help me continue my love for computers!

My Cooler Master HAP has six 6 1/2" drive bays accessible from the side panel, with trays you mount the drives to, but they slide in and have lock down levers and no pesky screws. Then in the front it has six more 6 1/2" bays, that can hold anything with a case, like CD/DVD drives media bays and whatever else they make for them. For storage drives they have trays too, and those slide in and out but and have quick lock/release front panels, and all six can have hot swap panels (came with one that covers 2 drives) mounted to them. That's a total of 12 6 1/2 bays, and with off the shelf 1 X 6 1/2" to 2X 2 1/2" converters it can technically hold 24 drives!🥳

Like all my footage is on external hard drives and SSDs internal external all over the by freaking room. But I've only been added for like a year and a half or something. Storage is a serious problem. I remember my dad seen my problem.... And saying how he thought they had fixed that problem and that drives were way bigger now. I was like yeah it's fixed for a lot of people word documents JPEGs and maybe some PMGs few games or whatever. Like it's fixed for him for sure but this MacBook is 250 gig storage. Lol.

100 percent agree with your decision to move forward with 2 parity disks in a group. Nothing is more stressful than having a large RAID 5 (1 parity disk) sustain a failure and waiting for it to rebuild. The array is under heavy load to do the rebuild and if you built the array with all brand-new disks, this being your first failure, the rest of the disks are now the same age and equally susceptible to failure as the disk that just died. Where-as with the RAID 6 (2 parity disk), if a second disk dies while you're rebuilding, it's going to complete and you get to do it again, but no restore required :)

Using the Meshify 2 for my server. If you're not at the level to rack mount everything, Fractal has some awesome cases for server duty. But it is a shame that they revised the drive mounting in the newer cases. It was much better in the original R7 and I wish they had kept it the same, but I'm guessing they did it to reduce costs. I like the DAS solution... for backup. Trying to find a 1U rack mount 4 bay right now to ditch my two USB3 external backup.

I have a nice project for you. Build a family (cloud) NAS. Neatly priced but extendable for later needs in storage (start with one or two drives, add more later w/o swapping the MB or CPU). Give your family an off-site backup solution (pictures from granny, thesis from sister at university etc). Have you own cloud, synced calendars, contacts etc. Easy to use software on the client side („good Wife Acceptance Factor“) and support not only for windows. Maybe a mobile support. I know it’s a big package, but it a challenge after all 😉
