    I began watching My Playhouse a few years ago, and slowly(and sadly) forgot about this wonderful youtube Channel, until I started searching for it again. So for the last few months I have been searching and looking for it, and I FINALLY found it. I have always loved this UA-cam Channel since i'm Danish like Morten is. And im really glad I found it again! :)

    Been watching your channel for years now. I was actually watching all of your DAS based videos when you published this one. I am so sorry to hear about your expensive NAS. I have heard of so many having issues with these prebuilt machines. A friend was just asking on twitter the other day about what to use for 4K editing. I highly suggested building their own like you. I have been using open media vault for the past year and have not had any complaints. I am wanting to compare it to the other options that you listed as well at the beginning of the video. Keep up the hard work and I think you will be much happier than your prebuilt you were using.

    You can add UEFI drivers for booting NVMe drives on machines that are too old to have the drivers. Usually I go with a helper USB drive that loads the NVMe driver and then reloads the drive mappings and finds the OS bootloader efi file. Since it is a Linux based OS you can skip all that and put your /boot partition on a USB drive and tell it to put the bootloader there but keep everything else on the NVMe.

    My personnal choice for home NAS is debian with zfs for data, docker and docker compose for services.
    I tried freenas and other freebsd based systems but I'm much more comfortable with debian
    You can install docker-ised 'netdata','cockpit' and other tools to monitor your server and applications like 'nextcloud' for your personnal dropbox.
    I use these plus jacket and transmission for entertainment sources (free of author rights of course)
    It's more work but worth it. If you plan to consolidate your work you can do it with 'salt' for fast deployments.

    Referring to the installation issue with the USB-stick. I ran in the exact same problem. The cause was the amount of RAM in the system. The system requirements say for the system drive "min. 4 GiB capacity (but more than the capacity of the RAM)".
    But you can trick the system, by taking out the RAM during the installation process and took it back afterwards. The only thing what's happen is, that the swap space isn't matching the RAM. But with 128GB of RAM there shouldn't be a swap problem.

    Those boot issues are going to be (no) fun to diagnose. My guesses follow:
    -nvme: bios supported? Updating to latest firmware(s) may help, otherwise check to see if you can disable all the raid options in bios AND the raid cards firmware. If the nvme does not appear in the bios boot devices list, then possibly not supported (limitation of the BIOS feature set due to OEM decisions). You could also remove the storage drives and have only the boot drive installed to see if that gets you further. NVME device detected as an additional add-in controller card that needs to be configured to support booting (similar to booting off a raid card, sometimes you have to enable boot support in the controller settings)?
    -usb: perhaps erase the usb drive (no partitions or MBR), or check the OMV docs to see if it requires a specific file system for usb booting, also check in the bios that you can see and have set it as a bootable device (very likely supported as the usb port is built-in), then use the 'one time boot device' option to boot the installer device. Some few usb devices are not able to be made bootable as they appear as a 'removable only' device type at the chip level, but sometimes you can format a problem usb stick manually and enable the bootability flag in the MBR to get it to a point that OMV may be able to see it as a viable boot device.
    Good luck.

      It’s a thermal pad... more heat conductive than a “sticker” but an NVME doesn’t need much cooling anyway

    As its Linux based I believe it is getting all those options so that it only installs the version you need and need one bulky package with a bunch of unnecessary files.
    Also, If I recall correctly from my arch Linux install you have to generate the locale before you can install anyways so unfortunately its a necessary step

    One of the points of the .local domain is that you can just use the hostname and it'll (hopefully) resolve. You selected United States then said you have a British keyboard which is perhaps why it then offered you American English
