they consume so little power that the NAS will end up being free after 3 years, versus running some dumbass HoMe sErVeR.

I've got my FIOS terminal, a unifi router + wifi access point, a raspi 3+ network controller, and the DS218+ on a single battery backup and it's good for hours when the power goes out. Pretty impressive.

I used to use dropbox and the minute they disabled using symlinks this way I jumped ship, gently caress dropbox.

wish it had more usb ports i actually have a usb3 pci card which gives me like 6 more external ports but the ports were kinda poo poo and didn’t work as well as the native ones. and i suppose there won’t be room for that card in this one anyway. 🥲

I'm probably going to put a 4tb SSD in my new build, in addition to a 2tb m2 drive. It looks like there's roughly a $250 premium on m2 drives to go from 2tb to 4, after doubling the price. same concern with modern games just being huge as poo poo.

I got my current rackmount for $250 NAS ain't cheap in general tho. you still gotta fill it with drives. I have 4x4TB ones and that's some bucks

echi if i was ordering today I'd probably get that gigabyte or there is another one that has wifi/bt for $220ish on pbtech. There's no reason not to get a 550 if you have $40 more than me

"terrible and v yospos"? i can top that. my nas is that one supermicro motherboard with a built-in LSI raid card in non-raid mode (so like an extra eight SATA ports on top of the four onboard) with a haswell xeon. it's running ESXi and the LSI sata ports are routed to a linux VM that hosts an mdadm raid-6 built from the six 8tb drives plugged in. the linux VM exposes an iSCSI interface over an internal network, which a windows VM then connects to in order to format the drive as NTFS and share out the volume via SMB.

I'm a firm believer in putting your storage in the most tested, proven, boring, universal, safe configurations. It's fine if you have a bunch of fuckin stupid esxi boxes and linux servers all over. Just iscsi your NAS, which should be a Synology or similar, for your bulk storage needs. Not hating on nerd boxes at all. just ones with all your anime on them.
