@christopherprevost763 4 ай бұрын

As others have mentioned: - pass the drives through (or better yet the motherboard sata controller) to truenas and let the nas do what it's made to do. You'll enable more features, and generally have a much better and stable experience. It's a case of using the right tool for the job. - give that truenas instance all the ram you can spare - add more nvme so truenas has a write cache - since you already have two systems, consider running truenas bare metal (I do see the appeal of managing everything via the proxmox interface but what else were you going to run on that machine?) - finally, the dream machine se can serve your router. They call it a gateway, it's the same thing.

@rickysargulesh1053 4 ай бұрын

I hope he reads this advice. Very important. I would also go Bare Metal for TrueNAS and passthrough of the drives seems very important to me as well.

@Andreas-w 4 ай бұрын

passing through the controller to truenas is the recommended way to virtualize truenas, it needs direct access to the hdds, that is also why you shouldn't use a hardware raid card.

@jgorres 3 ай бұрын

Yes, forget Proxmox for this server, and install TrueNAS natively. Also, get an HBA... An LSI 9207-8i, for example.

@brianhansen9578 4 ай бұрын

Before you fill those HDD's, please redo the config, TrueNAS needs baremetal access to drives, It's why the normal procedure when virtualizing is to passthrough an HBA to VM... with current setup you could potentially lose data, ZFS needs 100% control over when data is written to disk and it's status. that layer your setup removes from truenas

@brianhansen9578 4 ай бұрын

Frankly this video and build seems very poorly planned and executed, given you are presenting the really wrong way of doing things... but hey now u have topic for a follow-up :)

@ivanmaglica264 3 ай бұрын

I think Greg did ZFS on Proxmox, in that pool he then created a single big volume that is passed to TrueNAS VM. Better way would be to find which PCIe device is that SATA controller and pass the whole PCIe device to TrueNAS VM and set ZFS there. But that would be quite more involved process...

@Trylen 4 ай бұрын

Next on "Serv Your Right!" Greg is introduced to HBA cards and minisas SFF-8087 cables. I started years ago with IDE based, SATA was easier, but a PCIe 2.0/3.0 Host Bus Adapter with 2 or more minisas sff-8087 ports are your friend. Easy way to get 8 SATA drives on the go. Keep that first breakout cable in case you get such a card. If you find this addicting... wait till you get into dual CPU xeons/epyc. Move to walking distance to a MicroCenter and sell your car.. to afford that path.

As a long time home labber with a micro center just 10 minutes down the road this hits home lol how ever I recently grabbed 2 UM790 pros and may just swap out most of my servers for them. 100% Get an HBA and pass it through to Truenas though!

You should look into getting an HBA and using pci passthrough to your truenas vm so you can actually utilize truenas's features

@@samsamsamsamsamsamsamPossibly but alot of the time the onboard sata share an IOMMU group with other devices. If it does work that would be a good route to take but otherwise even a $20 4-port SATA expander card would work better than just passing through the ZFS volume.

as a gamer who doesnt know a lot about server stuff, this interests me a lot. In my own home one day id like to have a server rack like this, set up with large NAS that will act as a media server for movies, shows, music, videos, photos, etc, where me and my family can dump all of our favorite content and ditch streaming services. I would also set it up with remote HTPC, so that content can be accessed anywhere, especially the home theater. and would also like to incorporate gaming computers into the rack, as well as full house integrated networking. One day, maybe, if im ever able to afford a house that isnt 100 years old and falling apart

Before you get too crazy. Instead of proxmox managing the HDDs you should pass the disks through directly to the Truenas VM. Let Truenas manage them. That way managing failed disks will be easier, or should you decide to upgrade a disk etc. You can use the truenas gui and for all intents and purposes proxmox never really touches these HDDs. This setup is more common and recommended Otherwise great vid I love it when ppl try something outside their comfort zones and grow

@michaeljaques77 4 ай бұрын

This!!!! Otherwise running TrueNAS is pretty much pointless. Might as well just have a Debian or Ubuntu Server managing the disk. The point of TrueNAS is having it actually act as a RAID. with TrueNAS thinking its one disk its not truly redundant in any sense.

honestly if Greg is only running a nas using this server he should just run Truenas straight up on the hardware and not even worry about proxmox

A suggestion: Setup a share on your NAS to act as a redundant backup for your other network computer. Also: Truenas looooves RAM! It will use it as a read/write cache so if you use it a lot, or don't plan on installing an SSD, the more you install the better! I also would recommend giving Craft Computing's video tutorial a watch, so you can lock down the smb shares to only specific user accounts.

Pro tip Greg, for the PSU, you can actually stack the excess cables in the gap between the PSU & the mobo (alternatively, you can bundle up the cables right under where the modular cables connect to the PSU and cable tie the whole bundle together). I've done something similar and you just layer the excess cables over eachother and cable tie it all together and you're good. Not sure if that helps to try and tidy it up but I thought I'd put forward that idea. Love your work mate!

Too late my friend. I have built 6 servers after I purchased a 2-bay Terramaster then had to buy a 4-bay Terramaster when space filled up. I then built my next one and it was so large and efficient that I got hooked on making it bigger, adding a GPU for transcoding, and other bells and whistles. I have now built a total of 6 versions of my original build and each time, it gets a bit better. I am now building one for my son to store his games on and I put it in an Antec Silent Case with 8 bays in a mid-tower and it turned out great. He has 96Tb of space to store his games and plenty of redundancy if one or two of the drives fail.

Such coincidence. I was planning to upgrade my mini NAS/server from a Fractal Node 304 to RM21-308 (similar model as what you got, but 8 bays instead of 4), but both RM21-304 and RM21-308 are not available in my country and cost half of the case just for shipping if I buy it overseas (server case are really hard to find here, both in store or online). Silverstone did have the CS382, which is a tower type server and still fits in the rack, so I got that instead. You probably might wanna try building on this one too.

Unless you have a lot of users reading/writing data you don't need much of a system for file storage. You mentioned you might be video editing files from the server, as a rule of thumb for an enterprise environment, you should never run from the network, always pull the file local.

Personally I would have picked the 8 bay unit from Silverstone since most RAID cards are 8i (8 drive ports aka, 2SAS cables)

A couple notes from experience as a layperson in networking. First: I never understood the need for power strips with switches in network applications. Too much potential for impolite power shutdowns, accidentally turning off a switch etc. Your server has a power switch on it, use that instead. Second: Consider casters and a closed cabinet instead of the open rack for a residential space. The doors are removable for easy access or if cooling is an issue, but closing it up can really reduce the noise floor. The casters make it easy to pull the whole shebang out for access to the rear, just leave enough cable to do so. In my case I let the cables develop a natural coil so that when I pushed the cabinet back they tended to coil together as a unit, a few velcro straps kept the cables together. Third: Good call on leaving the UPS at the bottom and the heavy servers just above, that provides better stability of the unit. Fourth: Consider ventilated blank panels to fill in the spaces if airflow is an issue. They look good but still allow for air movement as needed. I prefer to fill in the blanks as well!

Hey Greg, love watching this part of your channel. Had some questions: 1) any reason for not putting TrueNAS directly on the NVMe's, as opposed to through a VM on Proxmox? Seems like unnecessary overhead, but I'm not as familiar with TrueNAS 2) is the network 1Gb or 10Gb? 3) for both/either server, are you doing any sort of network interface bonding (higher throughput and/or redundancy), or splitting out host management traffic from storage / VM traffic?
