  1. Hi IG!

     

    Thanks for those information!! 

    I currently run with 4 x 6To RAID 5 but performances are quite good, more often around 50MB/s. I suspect actual CPU is too poor for RAID5 computing, but that why I also think about adding SSD Cache (and also to prepare the future 🙂 but I understand and I agree with NIC card 10Gbits)

     

    Do you have any HW suggestion about Case ? Motherboard ? PCIe carte ?

     

    One more time thanks for your interrest 🙂

  2. Hi all,

     

    I currently run DS3615xs on N40L with 4 x 6To and I would like to build a new server from scratch.

    I have bought a Rack for all my network, PSU, and so on and I would integrate the NAS into it to be safe and clean.

    Here is my constraints:

    • Format Rack 1U 2U
    • At least 8-bay
    • NVME Cache
    • Read/Write performance
    • Transcoding (if possible)

     

    Do you have any advices / build to help me.

    Some of you have already do this ? (I sure the answer is yes 🙂) but with what type of hardware ?

    Thanks in advanced for your help 🙂

    Salut ! 

     

    Bah écoute je viens juste d'acheter la mienne :

    ASRock Z370M PRO4 avec un i5 8500 , et 8 GO de RAM, côté stockage c'est peu importe (ça n'influe pas au transcodage HW). j'ai un SSD pour les dockers, vm etc. et 4 disque de 4 to.

     

    Ca roule impec'.

    Merci pour ton retour :)

    et niveau boitier et alim tu mets tout ça dans quoi ?

  4. Hello

    je suis a la recherche d'une configuration avec des composants un peu plus recent que ce que j'ai et capable de faire du Transcodage HW

    J'ai l'impression que tous les 3 vous y parvenait, du coup j'aimerai savoir si vous pourriez partager votre configuration complète (CM, CPU, RAM, Boitier, DD,...) 

    Et si vous aviez a refaire aujourd'hui est ce que ca serait toujours celle là :)

    Merci d'avance pour votre retour ;)

    If you are German or the Language doesnt bother you (I think, u can change it) here is the Link for my Wishlist with all parts, i used for the NAS https://geizhals.de/?cat=WL-986884

    but if u want to use the exact same Case, i recommend you to buy this https://www.amazon.de/gp/product/B000ONYSR4/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o04_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

    also, because the frontpanel header Supermicro uses ist not a propiatary standard so you need this adapter cable.

     

    In this exact Case and with this exact Mainboard, u can only use 4 HDD´s because the Case only has 4 drives (although there are 2 additional 2,5" places to add Ssd cache or something) and the Mainboard has only 4 Sata-headers, you can sure add a few more, but the Pcie slot is only pcie 2.0 x1.

     

    Btw, Asrock , or to be exact Intel, only specifies the Mainboard with 8gb Ram support, but many people, me included, tested that, and it also works with 16 gb, some people also tested it with 32gb, but it seems like, that this can become a bit unstable, if u dont choose the right kit.

     

    Thanks a lot for all this informations, I thinks it exactly what I need so I will try to look for the same on amazon.FR or other french shops :)

    Just search for "ASROCK J5005-ITX" and  you will definitly find it. Added to that, i just used a Supermicro Case, because it was small and has easy accesible Hot-Swap Drive cages, althought it was a bit expensive for just a Home Server Case (~160 Euro).

     

    What I am looking for is especially the Case / Power supply informations and memory you used :) 

     

    I plan to build NAS for Storage (with 4 or 6 x 6To) + VM + Docker + MediaServer

    So, to give this Thread a Solution:

    Hardware Acceleration works for me with the j5005-ITX by Asrock when using the new 1.04b Jun Loader and install Emby (You have to enable VAAPI and not Intel Quick Sync).

    The /dev/dri folder is also available.

     

    Good news !

    Could you give us the exact HW config please ? (I am looking for Home Made NAS and this Mobo is intresting) :)

    Thanks

  8. Thanks for the guide LeeBear! Thanks too you I'm now up and running on ESXI with no errors at all. Even SMART works perfectly! :grin:

    I have one question though.. did you ever install vmware tools? I've read about people doing so with gnoBoot, but does anyone here have any experience with it with NanoBoot?

     

    Hi NeoID

    I am really interested to know how you do to have SMART available with ESXi ? what is your configuration ?

    Thanks for your help :smile:
