Paul MaudDib posted:ntfs-3g is a thing While true, I wouldn't use it for anything more than migrating data. If "must keep dataset as-is on current NTFS drives" is a requirement, I wouldn't move off of Windows.

Yeah although there might be work arounds and/or hacks, you loving don't want to do that for your own precious files.

derk posted:What are the specs of your server? It's an AMD E-360 1.6 GHz with 8.0 GB of RAM. I'm using a Shield TV as my Plex server so the computer is just downloading, organizing, and sharing the files. I guess I'm not really against migrating all the drives away from NTFS into something else, but not enthused about the effort/time required since I'd have to do them one at a time. I guess a Windows reinstall is my best option due to my laziness.

I haven't had my NAS on in like two or three months, and now Windows gives me this while trying to access it. Any idea what's up? Is it a new W10 policy?

Windows 10 Fall Creators Update (and maybe earlier?) has SMB1 disabled by default. You have two options: (1) Go into your NAS and tell it to utilize something newer, like SMB2 or SMB3. This is the best option, and unless your NAS is rather old and no longer getting updates, it should be easy to do. (2) Re-enable SMB1 on Windows. You can do this by going into Windows Features, scrolling through the list until you find the SMB 1.0 options, and enabling the CIFS Client and Automatic Removal.

It's a primordial WD My Book World, so it might just be time to put it out to pasture. Maybe I should find a Synology to put the RAID drives in instead, assuming it isn't too noisy.

Question for the unraid folks, how often do you do a parity check? Weekly? Monthly? I've been doing monthly and after if I ever have to power down etc.

 Shucked a few 8TB drives, doing some preflight checks. Only 16 hours to do a SMART long offline test... I'm replacing a 4 wide pool of 4TB mirrored vdevs on my FreeNAS 11.1 box. What's the thread's consensus on burn-in testing? FreeNAS forum guys like to use badblocks from what I've seen.

ufarn posted:How are both in terms of noise? I don't have too many places to stash mine, even with powerline. Generally the 2 and 4 bay units are pretty good. I'm using a QNAP 231P with 2 x WDC 2TB reds. Link below. The unit is quiet and the only time I can hear the case fan is when the lounge is completely quiet. I have the NAS in my home entertainment unit in the lounge with other networking gear and the AV receiver. I've never had the case fan go above 960RPM even with the CPU at 100% load and heavy disk activity. So pretty drat quiet, although part of why it's quiet is because of the hard drives. I can't hear any hard drive activity and this appears to be part of the red features. So don't put noisey high performance drives in the NAS if that would be an issue. https://www.qnap.com/en-us/product/ts-231p

Devian666 posted:Generally the 2 and 4 bay units are pretty good. This is the same one I have, using a pair of 6TB IronWolf drives, and I can say it's very quiet. I keep it on my desk right next to my router, and I only occasionally hear the drives working if I listen for it while I'm doing a really big transfer.

There's some windows software that allows you to manage different levels of redundancy for different defined classes of files across standard disk volumes. Someone remind me what it's called, please

Yeah I'm not one to break security features that were put there for a reason. Kinda wanna see whether I can just buy a cheap enclosure for it and do something like FreeNAS instead. I never got the macOS support to work anyway.

What's the current hotness case for a NAS? Trying to consider a Synology like DS918+ with a custom build and really just came up with this: https://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?item=N82E16811352047 I'd love to be able to put more than 4 drives in, though.

One of the Denverton Mini-ITX boards from SuperMicro (or AsrockRack, Gigabyte or whichever other cheaper manefacturer you choose to trust, if you want to deal with either lovely NICs or non-PHY gigabit NICs) with at least 8 disks (usually via Mini-SAS (HD)) in whatever CPU flavor you want should make for a pretty interesting little server.

The cooling on those weren’t very good last I heard and while the drive lifespan v temperature stats don’t show much their stats cut off around 42 degrees when most people’s home NAS systems can hit 60C in a white box drive cage (mine did at least before I got some more fans).

What exactly were you doing that got your drives up to 60C?  Mine are shoved in a reasonably small box, in a closed closet, and generally are in the mid-30's while being lazy, and the mid-40's while under load and/or during the summer when I get cranky about turning the A/C on.

Re cases, if hot swap bays aren’t required (and I kinda don’t think I would bother, personally) the Fractal Design Node 804 case is what I would get for a mATX NAS build. http://www.fractal-design.com/home/product/cases/node-series/node-804 Up to 10 3.5” drives in a nice little package!
