The WD Reds (/Plus/Pro) got some (STH) critique lately. Here is a WD Ultrastar on a competitive offer...

Hi, we have an old qnap nas where we store our backups (veeam backup, iscsi). We also have a Tape-backup where the latest is offsite. However I want/need to replace the qnap nas. I am looking for a _fast_ backup solution with some kind of immutable storage (If I have malware on the backup...

Looking for some insights from users of the performance of using a (QNAP or Synology) NAS for Windows 2019 or 2022 HyperV running on the NAS please? I'm was going to build a server for a client (with 50 - 100 users) for file and print services and use a NAS just for storage. But also considering...

Hi All, I have been attempting to plan my server build for a few weeks, I know what I want it to do, but I don't know what components to use. My real problems finding the CPU/MOBO, but if you see any other glaring problems I would appreciate your input. I have a budget of around...

Hi all, I just found this web community and it looks great. A lot of useful information. However, I did not find any specific information about my issue. I hope you can give a hand, so here is my post. I have been using Xpenology for a while, but as the project is practically abandoned, DSM6...

Hey everyone, in a bit of a pickle at the moment. So at the office we have a server running Windows Server 2019 with 3 x 12tb hdd in raid 5 and a separate 2tb ssd to work off of. Currently running standard 1gig across the network as windows doesn't even fully utilize the 1gig connection. Now we...

Hello, I'm a complete newbie when it comes to building servers so please be patient :) Recently I decided to build a server which would be used for storage, but also as a workstation where I would have multiple virtual machines for testing/gaming/audio production. After some research it seems...

I purchased a Synology DS1821+ a year ago but only had the chance to set it up recently. It is stuffed with 18 TB EXOS drives backed by 2 x 2 TB non-enterprise NVMe cache, with the RAM maxed out to 32 GB. Synology’s caching seems a bit janky tbh so I have mine set up as read only. Docker is...

Browsing thru their website for an AM4 motherboard for my next NAS build for home. I need it to support unbuffered DDR4 and v1.35 voltages - looks like I am out of luck? https://www.asrockrack.com/general/productdetail.asp?Model=B550D4U-2T#Specifications...

I am learning to code and getting into data science and have been looking into building a powerful workstation or server like this: Deep Learning Workstations, Servers, Laptops for 2021 | Lambda The main thing I'd like to do with a setup like this is to be able to not only run simulations but...

So I'm getting the final pieces together for my NAS build. Just got my AsRock Rack X570-D4U-2L2T, already had my 5950X, and now I need a CPU cooler. My priorities go as follows: 1) Reliability, this server is going to host my NAS which will hold very important data. (I'm not sure if this...

Hello Im quite new to the sth forum (and Forums in general), So what i am looking for is a NAS with 3 to 4 TB of usable space for 4 Persons. I have a gigabit home network so speed isnt that nessecary, but id like to have the option to go multi gigabit in the future (once multi gig switches...

Hey there, I am currently looking to get a new home NAS together with the potential to run a very few, lightweight VMs on it as well. I am currently ping-ponging a bit back and forth between what I want and what I need (a xeon-d 1541 would probably/realistically be good enough) but if someone...

I am looking for a good enterprise surveillance software to deploy on a relatively cheap second hand used server from eBay. Current setup is super jank using 2 different brand nvrs with no redundancy and no smart features. I have 32 cameras all sending h264 1080p 30fps video 24/7. I want to keep...

Seems like the U-NAS 810A has been out of stock for a long while. Really need that microATX case. Does anyone know any more information regarding this? Here are the other components for my build. Would be happier to buy from someone on here. Most are from the Killer NAS guide. Thanks...

Hey guys! :D First of all, thank you very much for all the good information and help here. I built my first Unraid server 4 years ago. At that time it should be used as a video editing NAS, Plex Server and for other applications. That has now changed. Shortly afterwards I founded a small video...

Hello everyone: I'm looking at building my first freenas Storage server to store finished projects and edit directly out of. I've decided to go about DIYing it after being unimpressed by the performance/price of Synology and QNAP solutions. My goal for this build was to come up with a more...
