Back in 2019 we challenged ourselves to build an all-flash version of Lumaforge's Jellyfish hard drive-based video editing server for the SAME price. We succeed, but we've always wondered, what if we went for feature and hardware parity, how much could be saved? The answer might shock you.

“You could literally hire an IT guy for half a year to spec it out for you, build it, and show you how to use it.” lol. I love hearing large prices being put into perspective like that.
i mean the one about the psu was better imo
I was thinking this too. Save $45k on the parts, and pay someone $10k to build and configure it. A competent specialist could probably assemble and setup in

Really like the network content. As an absolute novice, it's got me interested into setting my own NAS to mainly backup photos and stop reliance on paid cloud storage platforms. Would be great if you could do a video on a minimum requirement NAS (I.e. on an e treme budget) vs a two bay Synology. Keep up the great work guys.
You can find good servers for cheap if all you want is a NAS. Find a good used server with a lot of drive bays and enough ram that's all you need. Xeon e5 2600 series servers work great for NAS.
If you're a PC gamer, your next PC upgrade means that you could probably use your old hardware as a NAS. Otherwise any old machine can do the job. 10 year old PCs with decent CPUs (like i5-2xxx or i7-2xxx) will handle the task beautifully. If you can grab an old "gaming PC" that's 10+ years old, it can also do the job really well. Just might need to replace the case to support more HDD.
Agree with the other comments - you have NO SPECIAL REQUIREMENTS for this. Any computer can be a home NAS. ANY COMPUTER.
Well, as long as it has enough hard drives plugged in. Some computers don't have enough places to plug in hard drives.
Still, it does make sense to make that video in case someone doesn't have an old computer already.
By the way, if it's a desktop, YOUR OWN COMPUTER CAN BE YOUR NAS (but don't install TrueNAS on it. Just set up file sharing on whatever OS you normally run)
@@thewhitefalcon8539 I know this is already long time ago.
But what you mean by don't install TrueNAS? Im completely noob on this
@@PlyAkira If you want to use your desktop computer as a NAS and still use it as a desktop computer, then you probably shouldn't overwrite it with a NAS operating system.
I like how LMG apparently has someone on staff that was excited to show off their kilo gold bar for B-roll footage, lol.

legit that would cost 58000$ aka 5X the price of the whole system or buying a jellyfish server (i checked the gold price)
You cant beat the "i don't care how it works, how to put it together, how to fix it, or how to even USE it. I just want it to do the thing" mentality.
Yup. People are not paying for the hardware. They are paying so they can not care about it and it works. It's the same thing with every enterprise grade software/hardware company in all industries, you're paying so it works and you can make more profit.
@@arakwar That's just a nicer way of saying blubbering retards are always getting ripped off.
@@RickMyBalls do you go to a convenience store and pay double for soft drinks or snacks or something? It's quite literally the same thing with corporations. Time is money, corporations understand this. That's why they are literally willing to pay extra to have it done fast and know it's going to work, rather than take the time to build it out.
Neither side is wrong here.
Alright, then pay me an airplane ticket, all expenses and 5k to build it for you and set it up so that you don't have to care about anything and still have the "I just want it to do the thing" experience.
You'll still have at least 2/5 of the budget left for whatever you want, might as well use it to send me on a world trip vacation before going back home.
@@RickMyBalls How is it a ripoff if it pays itself in less than a couple of weeks ? Time is money. People spend time on what they are good.
Nice vid, just few notes - SLOG is write cache for ZFS, but only for SYNC writes. Generally you'll use SAMBA which again is by default ASYNC in writes, so SLOG will not be used anyway. Also, SLOG is generally quite small since it buffers only SYNC writes.
Next thing is - 2x mini SAS connectors - you can use SAS expanders so you can connect way more than just 8 drives to it. If it's somewhat newer, it's 12Gb/s per port and on each port you can attach several drives (with SAS expander), and still not bottleneck anything.

@@kusucks991 they did a pretty basic one before, but then iJustine and several others went with Jellyfish option on their next expansion/upgrade, which is why Linus is stating that if they had just asked him, he would've happily helped them shop for and setup a cheaper and definitely better setup for their needs.
@@kashashk Jellyshit option, honestly....
@MSORPG . They probably just wanted a plug and work solution. Not everyone wants to learn or spend the time setting their system up. That being said, Jellyfish is very expensive and there has to be an easy to setup and use option for a lot less.
Even tech channels often have really crappy setups .
@@robertt9342 That is true and more than likely the case. However, if the math shown here is to be believed (excluding taxes), then the price paid for that convenience is simply astronomical.

Wow, the first insane built from LTT that actually makes sense. I would have gone for a couple of Optane SSD's for SLOG/L2ARC however. Cant beat them for random IO.
Nice choice of components - I especially like L2ARC on NVME, 256GB ECC memory and the choice of the motherboard. However I would get rid of the power splitters off the power supply to disks and use a proper server chassis with a backplane attached to redundant power supplies, e.g. Supermicro 847BE1C4 or 847DE1C. Incidentally these have more disk bays, allowing for even bigger storage (36 or 90). More disks would allow for striped mirrors topology, which offers performance improvement on ZFS (and much faster rebuild times). Another improvement would be to use an extreme low latency device/high endurance SSD with power loss protection for SLOG, like Intel Optane DC P4800X or P4801X. SLOG gets flushed every 5 seconds (at most), so it does not have to be large. However L2ARC is a different story - it makes sense to use SSDs as big as possible. So I would use all M.2 slots for L2ARC only, and one PCIe slot for SLOG.
If you didn't need/want 36+ drive bays which SuperMicro chassis would you pick for something like this? I start to glaze over with all of the different backplane options. I like the idea of using a proper server chassis for this though. Thanks for posting!

I work with databases that regularly exceed 1TB in size daily.

Our university did also buy a new server for our Video lab. But unfortunately an avid server again. Which are quite pricey when you compare them to off the shelf hardware. But they have relatively easy software for access management which is needed for all those students and handled by just one person who does not have the time to learn a new system. For me it remains too pricey and a little sad but I get why they did it.

I didn't dislike the video, but their setup is still not plug&play, you still have to manually configure a network. It's a shame, because setting it up for the "NAS" to take control over network configuration negotiation is not that hard (just make it essentially a router - it doesn't even have to bridge an internet connection, just be a LAN router). Still, they DID NOT make it "just plug and work", you STILL have to manually edit network settings on both machines and - really - not everyone would want to know how do that. Hell, you should at least KNOW you CAN do that to even attempt manual configuration, and Windows network settings spitting out "unidentified network" while IT IS ACTUALLY WORKING is not helping.
1-drive SLOG and L2ARC are also questionable, while mirroring boot drive is an overkill - you can literally use a USB flash drive as a boot drive, there's nothing of value on it...

Re: implementing "direct attach" - instead of twiddling with manual IP addresses, one can configure DHCP server to run on each port that's not plugged into a switch. Then all you have to do is plug in the cable. It's even possible to make it foolproof and script around to enable DHCP server on a port only if it didn't get an IP for X seconds since the cable got plugged in.
I was thinking the exact same thing! DHCP would be a much better option in this scenario/target user group.
Can windows use the automatically assigned IP address it gets when no DHCP is offered?
While your solution would be the correct one, imagine the jank of relying on windows' failover xD
@@kommentator1157 Yeah this is the even simpler and more correct solution. The auto-assigned addresses are link-local, which means that they are non-routable, but work just fine for direct attach stuff. The only thing you would need to do is have some software to detect a link and connect to the correct auto-generated IP automatically.
@@rjk7104 Huh, you think that would be a correct solution? For one this wouldn't even work with Macs or Linux devices.
Now if you really wanted to do that,
windows does stay within the same address range, so a static ip inside that range for your server-interface should work.
@@kommentator1157 I don't think I fully understand your concern: what failover are you talking about? My point is that you can ensure that there _is_ a DHCP response with a valid IP address, just as if it was plugged in a router.

I also had to think about expanding and improving my network storage 2 months ago: got a HP Proliant DL 380 Gen 9 LFF rack server with 2x Xeon, 32 GB memory, 2x PSU, 4x GBIT NIC and 2x 40GBit hp infinitiloop NIC for 200 Euro used + rail kit (50 euro)
Then added another 32GB memory (100 euro), another 2x 10GBit NIC (60 euro), a HP P440 raid controller (60euro) the 12x LFF backplane with connectors (pricy - 300 euro) and 4x 3TB SAS HP drives (240 Euro) + some old SATA drives That have been sitting around.
From here is it personal preference and the remaining infrastructure:
I run windows 2016 hyper-v core (free) on which I installed a centos VM ( for trial and testing) as well as a windows server 2016 VM for media and video files / and also moved an existing windows 2012 VM (sql server onto it)
So shy of 1000 euro I got a decent HP hyper-v host with 2x 8 cores + HT, 12x 3,5 slots, SAS and SATA compatibility, as well as 2x 40GBit, 2x 10 GBIT and 4x 1 GBIT connectivity.
Maxed out it would be 1,5 TB ram, (12 + 3 backplane) x 18(?) TB hdd while the OS could be installed on HPE micro SD or raid1 usb stick

Step 3: Profit!
Spend that on your House.
"He's a yoinker!" Best quote of the month.
*halo reach voice* YOINK
And a droper.
I'm calling hot swappable components "yoinkable" from now on
On Pulseway, I used them to monitor about 20 machines, half of them windows desktop pc's, and I took their antivirus. One day they pushed an update to the antivirus, and all of the windows machines couldn't boot. I had to go to safe mode and remove the antivirus to solve the problem. That is when I dropped pulseway completely. This was about 4-5 years ago.
Wonderful stuff. If I had kids I'd make 'em watch *all* your server builds in preparation for the day they inherit my Plex media stash.

Do you want a step by step guilde to get better crypto gains?
Server type videos are the ones which I have no idea what he is talking about, but still I watch every one of those. Everytime I watch one I expect to learn but still haven't 😂
i like the pulseway sponsorship just because you know they REALLY like it and love it and dont just want to make money
And... am happy that I just upgraded from hdd to ssd ☺💔
Not even to nvm.2 storage
Hey, the upgrade even from hdd to sata sdd is staggering. Congrats on your upgrade and I hope the load speeds are everything they've been hyped up to be for you!
going from hdd to a ssd is a much more of a jump than ssd to nvme, enjoy the speed :)
I'm still in hdd :(
NVM.2 LMAOOOO
Meanwhile I decided to buy new PC after 8 years. It was quite expensive to my taste, so Ryzen 3600XT have to stay running for at least another 10 years. Brother got my old AMD Richland and hopefully it will run well for another few years.
The ending cuts off pretty abruptly. Weird.
Dust on the bottom left of the lens too haha
linus yanked the cable again
Linus' gasping for air should've been silenced. Janky editing indeed.
The letterboxes are a bit weird. Why not leave it 16:9
it’s youtube
Someone's in trouble ...
I didn't understand one thing in this video, but still watched everything

I'm sure it's been mentioned, but you plug each power supply into a different circuit on your breaker so it retains power if a circuit blows but you don't have a complete outage.
Maybe you should sell these NAS systems, fully set up, for like half the price of the Jellyfish
Just go full way with frying that Jellyfish
Really you want Linus tech support as he'd have to offer that as well as jellyfish do, which is how they justify their mad prices. Can you imagine Linus wanting that hassle.
@@karanssh yeah, but a lot of people clearly cannot be bothered to make one themselves; that's why they buy the Jellyfish and get ripped off.
"frying that Jellyfish"
is that on the menu :D
He literally gave you the recipe, just do it!
Also half the storage space and set up two of them in different sites and replicate, redundancy is King
I didn't know lumaforge was using CentOS -- wonder what they're gonna do with RH killing that distribution off (in its current form)
Rocky linux probably.
CentOS was just a most used rebuild of Red Hat Enterprise Linux's GPL Code. There are lots of less popular RHEL-based distros like Oracle Linux, Scientific Linux and HPE ClearOS, so death of CentOS is not a big deal.
Sneaky vacation request!
Thats some high level thinking!
More videos on the money I'll never have. And I can't stop watching.
intro : start
youtube subtitles : *[dramatic music]*
I am currently in IT school and I absolutely love your networking related videos. I look forward to more in the future.
Thanks for sharing!
it really give me much pleasure seeing you using note9, still, the last true note of samsung's note line up. using the same here. :D
"it'll be in the description below"
lies
Literally just rewatched the jellyfish fryer episode a few hours ago... crazy
Can’t be an LTT video without a sponsor
The note about the noise on the power supplies is such an underrated point to make, still triggered by the memory of an open office server I sat next to editing for 6 months....
17:07 , maybe THE smoothest segue in the history of LTT
Took me a few seconds to realize it was the ad
Seriously. That was smooth af.
The SLOG is completely overkill. Also a SLOG only helps when you have sync'ed writes like on databases or if you force it on your dataset or pool. However, that would be stupid performance wise. In general, your SLOG only needs to be as big as your system can receive synced writes at max inbound datarate for about a few seconds. Absolute max can be approximately via rule of thumb by "all total NICs speed times 10 seconds" or "SSD speed times 10 seconds" - whatever is smaller. My suggestion here would be 30-40 GB, limited by ssd speed, and the remaining storage on that drive should go to L2ARC, Speaking about that: Don't forget that you also need a decent amount of RAM for L2ARC indexing. A too big L2ARC require so much RAM that it limits the ARC capacity and in turn hurt your overall performance. Also: turn on persistent L2ARC. That is a nice feature of the latest OpenZFS 2.0 :)
More importantly, he didnt mirror it... and now has a single point of failure in his IO chain.
Came here to post exactly this. I work on large ZFS deployments, we use your exact "storage speed times 10 seconds" metric. From reporting, that's about 3-4x more than necessary, but also helps with flash longevity (wear leveling). For this system, 20 drives * 100MBps * 10 seconds = 20 GB. 2 TB is 100x too much.
Definitely remember to check L2Arc persistence, big difference if you ever reboot the system. Check /sys/module/zfs/parameters/l2arc_rebuild_enabled is '1' for Enabled.
For large and fast cache devices, you may want to tune l2arc_write_max and l2arc_write_boost or _l2arc_feed_min_ms_. The default is 8,388,608 (8MB) is the maximum write speed per interval for the the cache device (heavily influences how quickly it will be populated, or data updated). For a fast cache device, bump _max_ to about 1/20 of the device's speed (for the Sabrent in this video, max should be around 141557760) and bump _boost_ to somewhere in the range of _max_ to double _max_ (for the Sabrent in this video I would set boost to 283115520). You can also accomplish similar results by decreasing the minimum interval time in _l2arc_feed_min_ms_ from the default 200 (for the Sabrent in this video, maybe 10 or so).
Make changes persistent by changing /etc/modprobe.d/zfs.conf. Only make changes if you know what you're doing. YMMV. Caveat emptor.
i didnt know linus still made videos like this I love it brings me back to the old days when it wasn't all just news and reviews and was more of "lets see what crazy shit linus puts together in his parents garage today"

"We're not too afraid about losing data" sounds very different considering what happened last week
(for those who don't know: they irreparably lost near a petabyte of data)
