    Fractal's new Define 7 XL has an enormous capacity for hard drives, so it only makes sense to build and deploy a 4K editing NAS to compliment our recently built 4K editing workstation. For about $1000(not including the drives) you can build up this system and add up to 20 drives, like Segate's Iron Wolf Pro line. Using Unraid or ProxMox you'll be able to manage your data effectively.

    Unraid doesn't just start at the ease of adding drives and expandability.
    From (a lot) of experience, it is extremely stable and resilient. It can survive failed flash disks, (I had it run almost a week WITHOUT ISSUE with a flash disk the OS was on that wasn't even reading anymore) One day I opened up the UI to find Unraid was basically like "oh by the way, your flash disk isn't reading anymore" lol. I've had a failed motherboard, failed RAM, moved all drives to all new hardware and it's always just turn it on and it works. Failed drive? Put a new one in and hit OK. It's not just simple, it's dead simple.
    Speaking of simplicity and ease of use. I could rant alone on just the Interface alone. The UI just makes sense. Just running dockers alone is a couple clicks. They're curated, documented, updated, and supported.

In addition to using my new build as a NAS, it would be nice to have the ability to run Ubuntu and Windows VMs, in addition to Docker containers. Forgive me if this is a dumb question.

      @crocrash320 Unraid does all of that bare metal with one caveat: you can use GPU with containers or a VM but never both at the same time. If you have a Plex container utilizing a GPU for transcoding and then try to start a VM with GPU passthrough all hell breaks loose. If it is a dedicated homelab machine then you'll be fine. If dual purpose be prepared to add and remove "--runtime=nvidia" from a lot of docker containers any time you want to switch between the two.

Spend a few extra bucks and buy hardware RAID controllers and an license for UnRAID.

    Linus I would really love to see a behind the scenes of your production process for prepping new video ideas, writing scripts, camera setups, production tools and pipelines (video editing, upload tools, software, how you automate your build process). There are quite a few of those videos out there, but not from technically minded individuals. Kind of a day in the life of making a video like this one, and then maybe a followup video show the software to promote your videos and costs associated with it. Your videos are great because you put a lot of thought and give your reasons for why you consciously made the choices you do.

      @@anakinlowground5515 If you're just doing minor home recording, sure. But there's a lot to consider for a pro audio setup and the priorities change quite a bit from gaming focused builds. GPU doesn't matter but for lots of quickly accessible storage and as much ram as you can get become extremely important for stable recording, playback, and fast access to sample libraries, or running higher track counts with real time processing plugins. There's also the consideration of add in cards for many of the higher end audio interfaces and ample USB ports for all the various license dongles that many plugins require. There's also some setup involved to get windows to operate with more stability to avoid playback hiccups and artifacts in your recorded audio files.
      Ultimately, I just think it would make for an interesting video to have a PC build with a completely different set of priorities than the typical run of the mill gaming or video rendering machine.

      Maybe that's the problem. UA-cam audio is not that good so even if they had the expensive equipment necessary to showcase it it wouldn't quite show a difference.
      ...Or maybe it's just a lot more profitable to market enterprise server gear to random people instead of some super duper audio stuff. These drives cost $400 each right now and they're a hell of a lot more likely to have some random sysadmin or network engineer watching than some audio tech in hollywood.

    Great video, a few observations. 20 drives while nice you are killing airflow. I use the newer Meshify 2 XL and I run 6 SSDs and 12 HDDs so I don’t interfere with airflow and thus has fans directly blowing over all the HDDs. LSI cards are great and if you shop around on eBay you find 9260-16i at great prices. Another big thing when using LSI cards is they were designed for servers with good airflow. I run 2 92mm fans on a fan bracket blowing directly on the LSI cars or the heat will kill them prematurely. My oldest servers were running 7x24x365 for 5 years until I just upgraded everything to what I mentioned before. Also run Windows server and the native LSI software. The LSI software will email you with failures, warnings, etc. and you can schedule disk patrol and consistency checks to make sure the disks are healthy. I run Raid 6 and 4 x 120mm fans up front, 4x 120mm along top and the. 1 x 140 in back. I use a Ryzen 9 3900X 128GB of RAM and I run HyperV with about a dozen VMs. The larger your hard drive the longer a failed drive takes to rebuild when failed. With Raid 6 I can take 2 drive failures before it is an issue. I have 1 drive assigned as a hot spare so if a drive fails the rebuild starts immediately. Because of the Meshify and all my fans I can run fans at ~800 rpm and the drives run about 31C nice and cool.

    Fun video to see considering I just picked up a Define R6 for more or less this purpose. Doesn't hold quite as many drives as the Define 7 XL, but the use case is going to be mostly just storage and ostensibly streaming. Not sure how I'll config everything just yet as the original plan before I saw these cases was to simply turn my old components into the server but I can probably turn this into a workstation that doubles as a server to the rest of the network. Wouldn't be the best setup in a more demanding network environment but seems reasonable here.

    I love Proxmox and prefer it over XCP-ng or oVirt when it comes to virtualization and containerization.
    But we don't have to pretend that it's a NAS replacement.
    FreeNAS(TrueNAS), Unraid, and OpenMediaVault have tradeoffs between them. But I'd much sooner push someone towards any of them for something like this, before bringing up Proxmox.

    • @DxCBuG
      @DxCBuG 4 роки тому

      But you could run openmediavault as a vm if you just run ext4 or lvm raid right? That would only suck for btrfs or zfs. If you can pass through the complete disk controller even this could be just fine

    I run a homemade NAS. I used a Corsair Gold 1500 PSU. It fried after about 10 months, almost caught the box on fire and surged, killing all the hard drives. Corsair would not even warranty the PSU, unless I wanted to pay shipping, let alone the loss and damages. Do not ever trust a Corsair PSU or any other crappy PSU with your data. Also, I highly recommend a cloud backup (which I thankfully had as well).
