Better question for me is what can I do!?!?! My favorite parts of your video was: 1. Watching you peel of the protective sheet…. “Of course I forgot one” 😂 2. Your comment: I’m sure if I’m wrong someone will let me know. I was rolling on this one. Can’t wait for the next video.
well this looks amazing! compute at the edge is pretty cool... It was interesting to learn that all Chik Fil As run on a cluster of NUC's sent to each location.
I have a similar PSU in a 2U case powereing 9 HDDs with the fan up against the top like that. It's been running for months without issue. I have a actual 2U PSU to replace it with but I haven't gotten around to it yet.
According to EVGA website fan on this PSU has "ECO" mode - when enabled it should not even spin until 40% load and I don't think this cluster will ever reach 220W. So you can enable ECO mode (switch next to the main on/off switch on the PSU) and don't really concern yourself with the PSU fan.
This is super cool Tim! Amazing you were able to get your hands on it. Can’t wait to see what projects you have in store for the Turing Pi 2! I think some kind of hyperconverged setup would be neat where you run a three node Kubernetes cluster on the Pi’s (k3s) and then leverage Jetson for some AI or ML workloads since the NVIDIA Container Toolkit >= 1.7.0 (nvidia-docker2 >= 2.8.0) you used for your GPU passthrough video now supports Jetson with Ubuntu 20.04 + arm64.
It's a damn shame Pfsense doesn't run on these. I hope the Pfsense community is listening. These devices are getting better and better every day and every year. We really need to turn this into unified threat management system.
I actually can't wait for the next video! I have x3 Nvidia Jetson Nano 2GB and and 3 Raspberry Pi 4b+ that ice been wanting to combine into an AIO cluster! Will you be deploying anything on your new cluster? Perhaps a series?
Great video - I had a very similar issue with the PSU in a 2U chassis like that. In the end, I put the fan downwards and cut a hole in the bottom to allow the PSU to breath. Maybe frowned upon, but it has worked out very well. Cool air in from the bottom outside the chassis and vented out the back. I guess there is the risk of dust ingress into the PSU, but I stand by my decision...
What's the advantage of running a Pi cluster over a cluster of low-power Celerons or Pumas or even a single hexacore? It seems to me that power consumption would be pretty much the same but performance would be greater with the x86 cpus.
Excellent Tutorials on Turing Pi v2 board. Just wondering who got the documentations on the different flavors for the Turing Pi v2 board since it supports both the Raspberry Pi and Jetson. Can the board supports the Jetson Nano, Xavier and high end Jetson AGX. If you have 1 x Jetson Nano (2GB), 1 x Jetson Nano (4GB), 1 x Xavier NX plus 1 x AGX Xavier. Does it mean when you turn the system on, you will get 4 separate screens that will allow you to the multi-taskings. I think more cost effective is to have 3 or 4 nodes on Raspberry Pi to run on Kubernetes and Containers.
Thank you! Each device has shared and dedicated hardware. As far as video output, only 1 can have access to the HDMI, which is node slot 1. You can still use other nvidia devices but not with a video output. Remote control or just pushing your ML / AI workload is going to be the way to go, even if it is connected to HDMI.
QQ to the community I guess, Could I use this board to build a games server. I want to get games like Valheim, Sons of the Forest and Satisfactory on a home server, but a big PC to do that is a lot of power, so was looking to use something like this? Would that work?
I'm not sure I get it, apart from being able to power it with a regular atx psu, what's the advantage of the turing pi 2 over running just a regular stack of pi's?
I haven't gotten one myself yet, but I heard it has an IPMI-like management option, there are a few M.2 slots to use the pis' PCIe lanes, and I heard if one of the pi's has a wireless modem connected to one of those M.2s it could share a connection with the other three. I also figure since it has its own gigabit switch built in, and powers all 4 pi's off a single ATX connector, that makes it easier to supply power and to connect to network for all 4 nodes, rather than giving each one its own ethernet and its own power, or buying four PoE HATs and still having to run four ethernet cables.
Are these CM4 SODIMM adapters come from Turing? I've only heard about Gumstix but they look different. I just ordering all the parts in advance to get ready for Turing Pi V2 launch ;-)
I’m seriously considering one of these and I’m not an advanced user. I want to run web apps/kubernetes on pi 4s (UniFi, UNMS, PiHole, home assistant, etc.) and then I was thinking a jetson could be fun and maybe it could do transcoding for Plex? Is that possible? My current server is UnRaid based and I have a Gaming VM on it as well. I’m thinking something like this would give better fault tolerance plus be cheaper than trying to go to some higher end CPU to handle everything. I’m assuming I can give the cluster access to a share folder on my UnRaid server right?
hello Tim so great as usual ...but what is the difference between this and a standard PC ? Or a NAS ? May you post a tutorial on how to do to setup Traefik + openLDAP + Keycloak to manage auth on docker containers ? It will be so good. welldone for this channel. bye
notice the atx has offset mounting holes, so it mounts only one way -if you use all 4 securing screws- i like to use the picopsu's for these low power devices -intel j4205 omv4 with 12v up to 180watt wall wart etc- in small cases to mount extra usb3 hd's where the psu would have been. lol never did 3d print/popsicle stick a cage for em though, ill do it some day
The downside of pico psu is that the while it is small in the case, the power brick is huge. I’d rather tuck the mess away in a case with a standard psu
@@TechnoTim true if you look in the pc sections. if you look in the lighting & car sections you can find 12v 10a + laptop power sized 12v to run these fine oc you could use laptop 19v high amp ww with a small cheap as chips dc to dc 'buck' converter to
Would this new Turing Pi 2 be a good candidate to run as the third node for Proxmox High Availability? I'm looking for a low power option for the 3rd node, instead of running three enterprise class servers...I'd like the 3rd node to be low power and just vote for quorum.
@@TechnoTim Thank you. I clicked the link and it went to a page that said I last purchased these in April 2021. Haha. I am already using these for a different server.
I believe 2.25" or so. On Wednesday I'll be posting a video about racking up the cluster. I had to get a 2U case because it was just too high for 1 or 1.5U.
The PSU problem is common since they built not much with 80mm FAN on the side anymore. Thats because they give up fast when nobody cleans em. Btw. if your PC shuts off from time to time it could be a dirty PSU! Open and clean them atleast every 5 years!
Hey Tim, cause your project list needs a +1 im sure 🤣... Would love to see a series on the Nvidia Jetson... BTW, thanks for always skipping the unboxing. 🙏
Whats the point of this? like what does it do and why do it this way instead of just building a normal system? What benefit does this add? what is the point? Please I just wanna understand the point..... I know computers well but NOT the Pi side of things or the Server/industrial side of things.
so wtf is the point can I run haiku os or is this just for kubernetes clusters that I can never seem to find software worth using on and why the long and useless video
Thanks to you, I just bought an HP DL360p G8 8SFF server. Can't wait for it to deliver probably this week, what should I prioritize in March (when it's my birthday) Should I prioritize filling it with 1.2 TB disks? Or buy one more server or buy a rack? I want all of this, so yeah.

@@TechnoTim ya I commented like 30 seconds before you did the fan swap >.< shame 🔔
All good! I love play by play comments!
15:15 For the front fans, I heard that early revisions of the Turing Pi 2 had backwards fan headers. Maybe try reversing the polarity.
Looks like a nice project!!

PC fan screws are always snug because they're designed to cut their own threads into the plastic as you turn them.
So satisfying!
Whats the total cost of adapters, board and all pi modules? To build such cluster.
haha! Crazy performance but only a single node!
Sweet! Can’t wait to be able to get one and do the same!
How can we Virtualize Macos with Proxmox?
Obviously fan down for the PSU. Don't you see the text on it is upside down?
Since it's mini-ITX, two of these can fit into that 2U, that would be amazing.
It certainly would!
PicoPSU or Corsair SF 450 Platinum (for more breathing room) is maybe the better pick, if you care about efficiency.
I have question - can you combine rockchip + pi + jetson and use this together?Next question arm windows 11 on this?
Anything new with the Touring Pi 2???
What a cool little build, would love to get into something like this. Question does the board now have a back plate?
This prototype did not, I assume the final will
