Thank you for being real and taking responsibility."
@@jaturnley Lets face it us "real" IT guys don't back shit up and we all had like one drive fail on us in the last 30 years. Also have you ever backed up a failing 2 TB HDD at like 200 kb/s while naked?
No Dawid, you didn't buy from two different etailers because there wasn't enough stock. You did so because, as the tech expert you are, you were following good Hard Drive buying practice. You of course knew that drives from the same production batch tend to fail around the same time, so you ensured you received units from multiple batches to minimize the risk of data loss.
I'm so proud of you Dawid. It's awesome that you finally came clear about this. I know it must be hard to admit to your struggles, but I want you to know that I'll always support you despite your shady past. Seeing this positive change in your life fills my heart with joy. Making a big step like this certainly wasn’t easy but you have proven strong and done it! The dark times you’ve left behind certainly made you stronger, but the future's so much brighter, now that you have a proper storage solution in your life.’ You will no longer have nightmares about dropping your HDDs. The redundancy will solve all the issues in your life.
This is correct, there should be additional space for two 3.5 in hard disk drives on the bottom of the chassis at the front, as long as that space is not occupied by fans.
Dude probably didn't have the chance to afford the new NAS until now, because he's been spending his Patreon money in Limited Run cartridges for the Switch
Yeah, he's going to run into the bottleneck of the speed of the hard drives, and if he's got any small files on those drives, it's going to be even worse. Moving small files over the network is HORRIBLY inefficient and slow.
Connect the old drives one by one to another serial port or add-in card, previous comments are correct, you are limited by the spinning disk speed, not Ethernet speed, but even local you are still writing and reading from spinning disk with a little less overhead, really at this point nothing you can do but wait.
Yeah, I tried Core myself on one of my servers before giving up on it and going with Scale. I honestly think that within the next year or so they will completely discontinue Core (despite their claims otherwise).
you can google the chip and see if it supported in the latest freebsd kjernel. or just look at it - if theres a little realtec crab on tthe chip its not lol

Quite frankly I'm astonished you made it this long without losing a bunch of data if that's how you've been going about it. Glad you finally got some robust storage going on! FreeNAS is a fantastic solution for home and small business, and far cheaper than the enterprise stuff I work with every day. Now seriously consider getting either cloud storage as a secondary backup, or backing up to tape drives. Trust me, it's not if but when you have a data loss event, and it's not pretty.
There is a new Epyc 4004 with unregistered ECC support in an AM5 socket. Also a case with hot swap bays wouldn't hurt. Nice NAS Dawid! Better than a stack of HDDs.
I like to imagine Dawid has been waiting for a sponsor to bless him with a NAS but nobody was offering anything and the situation turned so dire he had to do it himself.
15:47 those drives are in fact, 22TB, but they are around 20TiB. TiB is Tebibytes, not terabytes. In windows, for some reason the file explorer measures things in TiB, but uses the wrong unit TB (terabyte)
To everyone seriously calling this clickbait, I have one question. Have you ever watched this series before? If you thought he was serious, please give up any hope of ever having a sense of humor and go watch videos of paint drying or something.
Kinda feel like no matter how fast your Ethernet adapter is you won’t be able to get faster transfer rates due to the fact that you’re writing to hdd’s. Could be wrong but the data can only transfer as fast as the drive can write it right?
With 8 drives in RAID-Z2 and a decent, non-potato CPU for parity calculations, you can easily saturate a 10Gbit connection - at least I can with my setup. Also: TrueNAS uses the RAM as a write buffer (which is why you want error correcting ECC-RAM and lots of it), so you can go even faster as long as the file(s) you want to transfer are smaller than your available buffer and/or your drives can empty the buffer faster than your network can fill it.
You installed Truenas Core, which is based on Freebsd and they won't be making any new versions of it, version 13 is the last. Truenas Scale is Linux based and is the way forward for the company. It also might have had a driver for that network card.
Great video mate, covered all the points that I wanted to know. I have a very similar setup (Node 804, 5600G & 8x HDD). At this moment in time I use an Adaptec RAID (with battery) card along with their MegaRAID software in a Windows 10 environment. I later added a 2.5GBe network and can sustain 235 MBytes/s through my network coming from my RAID5 array - basically saturates the 2.5Gig. Should / when I move to TrueNAS I now know that I may get issues with the 2.5Gig network card, sadly installing the 10Gig card means I need to remove the P4000 GPU and fall back on the APU which is in the 5600G, you mention this can also be an issue. Fun times if I go ahead!
If you're an animal for this, consider me a single-celled organism. I just use a sata-usb cable, mark nothing and hard drives end up wherever I feel like
😰 I used to be like that too... then my anxiety decided to focus on that and I couldn't fucking sleep until I had both a NAS backup and cloud backup all automated for the most important data.
Buying drives from separate sellers is generally considered a good idea regardless of stock, since apparently drives manufactured together like to fail together, and you don't want a ton of drives all failing at once. Having proper network storage is REALLY nice, though, and there's all kinds of fun stuff you can do with the NAS once you have it set up.
0:57 - I'm trying to figure out what network access storage is... Like a password manager to store your network passwords in? I used to have a Netgear ReadyNAS that I used for my Network *Attached* Storage. But I lost my password.
welcome to the club......lol....ive been an IT tech for almost as long as you have been alive and I do not have a proper NAS either but also i dont have near as much data as you have.

Last time I checked, the Ryzen 5 5500 didn't support ECC, as it's based on the APU chip. (Cezanne instead of Vermeer). For my NAS I went with a Ryzen 5 3600 for this reason.

I can’t believe that! I watch your channel at least since last week and I never thought you were like that. I THOUGHT I KNEW U! Glad u fixed it and welcome to the Network Attached Spacerangers!!
It's not quite a NAS due to the lack of RAID redundancy, but I made a self-hosted server out of a $150 micro PC from Amazon, and a SSD stick I had laying around. Gotta check if the N100 or N200 support ECC out of the box, even if emulated
4:23 You want to buy from separate places anyway, because the thinking is that you're more likely to end up with drives from different production runs which would split your chances of encountering a specific production run defect.
Oh dear God, no. Not that! Anything but that. Please don't make him run McCafe and run this setup in a case from Ali Express. THINK OF THE TEMPERATURES YOU MONSTER.
so 10gbps networking will help, but directly attaching the old drives to the new NAS array is going to be the fastest to offload all that data, plus you're not also tying up resources on your main PC. Years on the the high seas have taught me by experience.
Those drives should cap out at 200-250MB/s read, so even the 2.5GBit LAN would be overkill. But I was also going to suggest taking the "toaster", hooking it up to the Nas and then directly copying from the disks to the Nas array.
Even without all those sata ports sitting unused in the motherboard, I'd assume there's a usb3x port that can ship data 2, 5 or 10 times as fast as his lan.
Trust me i know how awful it is when you find yourself at a dark place. I still remember it like yesterday... well it actually was yesterday... i was sitting at the toilette taking a nice and massive satisfying dump... when out of a sudden the light went out and i couldn´t find the toilette paper. I made it out.. barely. Woke up today, covered in sweat with flashbacks from the horrific scenario i had to endure. I consider myself d*sabled to at least 110% suffering from the severest form of PTSD. I wet my pants today looking at the bathroom door... and i am sure even my dog was mocking me.
To be honest, I was just logging in to state that you're history's greatest monster, based on the start of the video. Then your redemption arc got stronger and stronger throughout the video, leading me to realize you're the greatest hero in living memory.
I think you should ask on the data hoarders subreddit assuming it's a HBA in IT mode or network card. if it's a capture card setup I don't know whom to ask maybe the manufacturer has a forum. also check the motherboard manual for how the pcie lanes are distributed. sometimes some slots are electrically wired to be x8 but physically look like x16. also look into which generation of pcie slot is needed for that card. as the bandwidth for each lane doubles every generation. for example if you need PcIE gen 2 x8 lanes for the card to function properly it could function with just x2 or x4 lanes of PCie gen 4 or gen 3 respectively and most of the cards are backwards compatible. @@fajaradi1223
Dammmmmmmmmmm. Dawid is actually a smart dude. And has a realistic future as a dramatic actor. The overwhelming sadness he unleashed at the beginning of this episode (this is an episode, isn't it?) overwhelmed me. Twice. I must visit Canada in my next life. If I live long enough.
The plus side of procrastinating storage is that memory gets larger and cheaper at a rate that's faster than you will typically produce and save content. So, winning.
price per TB hasnt really gotten cheaper in quite a while, drives are getting bigger and thus more expensive as price per TB stays the same. SSD is getting cheaper though, its unlikely ill ever go back to HDD now, 4tb Nvme arent too expensive these days
0:43 we never thought that and that is why we watch. The only shame is all those seagates. Good luck they still work. I'm impressed you found a case that actually has drive bays anymore and isn't a right angle fish tank.
The needing to touch the touch screen thing has me thinking there is some problem with the application focus. Further logging to figure out what is taking the focus could be in order...Probably best looked at by MS.
Doable, but not exactly plug & play and drag & drop: you would have to manually mount each drive/volume and copy the files over via command line. If you don't really know what you are doing, it's probably easier, faster and safer to transfer your data via network on a machine/OS you're more familiar with... Also: no question is stupid!
remember.. nas is not a backup.... the one in my home is 12 disk, with 12tb drives.... you can do it. different batches should be standard, reduces the possibility of a bad batch getting you.
@@clubley2 yup works like a dream, R6 and ultra stable, just looking now in a year or so begin replacing them all with new drives and these will go into storage.
Nice, I like the fact that you got yourself a NAS! I really should do that myself one day, albeit not on the same sort of huge scale as that... and also you say that 1Gb Ethernet is a bottleneck, well, whatever NAS I decide to use will probably be running over AC1200 wireless cards on my mesh network, so yeah there will be bottlenecks!
Why use Gigabit for transfer when you still have 6 SATA ports available on the motherboard as well as the external toaster reader? There's no way import isnt supported that way. You could even make another array with the empty drives after.
I personally find it a bit funny that the first video I saw of yours was gaming on a NAS (I think an Asustor or something), yet homeboy hasn't been using a NAS all this time...
You're EXTREMELY lucky if the drive actually survived fall from the desk. I drop tested 3 old 250GB drives and all 3 of them died after a single drop from table height. All of them still spun up but IO operations were giving errors to the point none of the data was accessible.
7:18 What? The 5500 is a disabled APU. It shares the same die as chips like the 5600G and 5700G. If you're looking to avoid potential ECC issues associated with APUs, the 5500 is an odd choice.

Glad u fixed it and welcome to the Network Attached Spacerangers!!
I wasn't expecting that. Techtuber builds his own NAS out of non commercial consumer NAS parts. Nice work.
It's not quite a NAS due to the lack of RAID redundancy, but I made a self-hosted server out of a $150 micro PC from Amazon, and a SSD stick I had laying around. Gotta check if the N100 or N200 support ECC out of the box, even if emulated
@@csolisryou can emulate ECC???
@@xymaryai8283 To be frank I'm not sure if it can be done by software, hopefully it is
@@csolisr There is zero requirement for Raid Redundancy (redundant array of redundancy) to qualify as a NAS.
"SSD stick" Derp.
Its ok bro, we all love you anyway. With or without access.
Good apology. You recognised your mistake and you're making an effort to fix it
There comes a time in every techie's life where we must face our demons, Dawid. Luckily, your demons materialized into a sexy NAS machine!
4:23 You want to buy from separate places anyway, because the thinking is that you're more likely to end up with drives from different production runs which would split your chances of encountering a specific production run defect.
You might have only a basic tech thing setup but I know you are the master of tech STUFF.
Plot twist, I thought he was going to say his real name is David
That would have been amazing 😂😂😂
And that he's not Canadian
NO sorry for you , as a punishment you should now pair i9 14900k and rtx 4090 with single channel 8 gigs . 😂
4 gig 😂
Oh dear God, no. Not that! Anything but that.
Please don't make him run McCafe and run this setup in a case from Ali Express. THINK OF THE TEMPERATURES YOU MONSTER.
@@randomweirdyoutubechannel8955 Can you even get 4Gig-Sticks for DDR5? Would be wild to see this.
also use a usb 2.0 stick for the windows install via windows to go and run games on that
so 10gbps networking will help, but directly attaching the old drives to the new NAS array is going to be the fastest to offload all that data, plus you're not also tying up resources on your main PC. Years on the the high seas have taught me by experience.
Those drives should cap out at 200-250MB/s read, so even the 2.5GBit LAN would be overkill.
But I was also going to suggest taking the "toaster", hooking it up to the Nas and then directly copying from the disks to the Nas array.
@@renerant me too!
@@renerant - Using every SATA port he can power to copy multiple at a time would make the MB the limiting factor.
or external usb c enclosure should also work to make transfer take less time.
Even without all those sata ports sitting unused in the motherboard, I'd assume there's a usb3x port that can ship data 2, 5 or 10 times as fast as his lan.
Trust me i know how awful it is when you find yourself at a dark place.
I still remember it like yesterday... well it actually was yesterday... i was sitting at the toilette taking a nice and massive satisfying dump... when out of a sudden the light went out and i couldn´t find the toilette paper.
I made it out.. barely. Woke up today, covered in sweat with flashbacks from the horrific scenario i had to endure.
I consider myself d*sabled to at least 110% suffering from the severest form of PTSD. I wet my pants today looking at the bathroom door... and i am sure even my dog was mocking me.
To be honest, I was just logging in to state that you're history's greatest monster, based on the start of the video. Then your redemption arc got stronger and stronger throughout the video, leading me to realize you're the greatest hero in living memory.
I just had an epic bowel movement
Bro's got the "cry on demand" acting skills down pat. That's impressive 🤣
Imagine plugging a 1x card into a 16x slot when a 1x slot is clearly available
Because the 1x slot is connected to the chipset instead of the cpu
@@hiddenllama3659
Does it really hamper the performance?
I'm planning to do something similar.
I think you should ask on the data hoarders subreddit assuming it's a HBA in IT mode or network card.
if it's a capture card setup I don't know whom to ask maybe the manufacturer has a forum.
also check the motherboard manual for how the pcie lanes are distributed.
sometimes some slots are electrically wired to be x8 but physically look like x16. also look into which generation of pcie slot is needed for that card. as the bandwidth for each lane doubles every generation.
for example if you need PcIE gen 2 x8 lanes for the card to function properly it could function with just x2 or x4 lanes of PCie gen 4 or gen 3 respectively and most of the cards are backwards compatible.

@@fajaradi1223Yes
@@fajaradi1223 Maybe by 1 or 2 milliseconds and nothing to worry about for a NAS.
Dammmmmmmmmmm. Dawid is actually a smart dude. And has a realistic future as a dramatic actor. The overwhelming sadness he unleashed at the beginning of this episode (this is an episode, isn't it?) overwhelmed me. Twice. I must visit Canada in my next life. If I live long enough.
Thank you for the video, been looking at building a Nas for video content with a normal pc. From SA 😁
Bro really fooled us with the first few second of the video 🤣🤣
The pro move is to click on the baity thumbnail, hit pause and check the comments 😅
@@ettcha yea lol
I knew it was clickbait from the moment I saw the thumbnail. Still clicked on it straight away. Cuz it's Dawid
Yeah its prety easy to tell
Yeah.I was thinking,this could be 50-50 real 🤣
Could've been worse you could have been a secret Apple Mac user.........
The plus side of procrastinating storage is that memory gets larger and cheaper at a rate that's faster than you will typically produce and save content.
So, winning.
price per TB hasnt really gotten cheaper in quite a while, drives are getting bigger and thus more expensive as price per TB stays the same. SSD is getting cheaper though, its unlikely ill ever go back to HDD now, 4tb Nvme arent too expensive these days
Cost per TB stagnated around 8TB disks. With inflation, he's paying way more than he would have a couple of years ago.
0:43 we never thought that and that is why we watch. The only shame is all those seagates. Good luck they still work. I'm impressed you found a case that actually has drive bays anymore and isn't a right angle fish tank.
Can you put your cpu in my socket
You want his ram in your memory slot?
Maybe you would prefer perfect amount of thermalpaste spreaded across your cpu?
Use precautions so the battery doesnt impregnate
Sussssss
Thank goodness he no longer has a Floppy
Genuinely worried for a bit until the hard drives came out
Putting eye 👁️ drops 💧 during the intro would of killed 😂👍
would've* = would have NOT "would of"
The needing to touch the touch screen thing has me thinking there is some problem with the application focus. Further logging to figure out what is taking the focus could be in order...Probably best looked at by MS.
Stupid question, maybe, but for the initial data ingestion why not plug the USB-to-SATA doodad directly into the NAS?
Doable, but not exactly plug & play and drag & drop: you would have to manually mount each drive/volume and copy the files over via command line. If you don't really know what you are doing, it's probably easier, faster and safer to transfer your data via network on a machine/OS you're more familiar with...
Also: no question is stupid!
Doesn't count without ukulele
I love it when tech youtubers have trouble with network storage. It make me feel better about my setup. 😂
remember.. nas is not a backup.... the one in my home is 12 disk, with 12tb drives.... you can do it. different batches should be standard, reduces the possibility of a bad batch getting you.
Are there any vibration problems with all those mechanical drives?
but to fail with whole batch at similar time is kinda... well i would say understand your concern but i think :D yeah non factor i think
@@DrewtheelderIronwolf pro drives are built for NAS usage and designed with this in mind. Should be fine.
@@alesksander Yeah I used to run a data center 20 years ago, seen some shit in my 700 server DC.
@@clubley2 yup works like a dream, R6 and ultra stable, just looking now in a year or so begin replacing them all with new drives and these will go into storage.
Nice, I like the fact that you got yourself a NAS! I really should do that myself one day, albeit not on the same sort of huge scale as that... and also you say that 1Gb Ethernet is a bottleneck, well, whatever NAS I decide to use will probably be running over AC1200 wireless cards on my mesh network, so yeah there will be bottlenecks!
I wasn't overly concerned at the beginning of this video but non the less, I had a small tear in my eye Dawid.
"... like some kind of animal" 😂😂
Why don't you just make a new pile?
You're forgiven
Why use Gigabit for transfer when you still have 6 SATA ports available on the motherboard as well as the external toaster reader? There's no way import isnt supported that way. You could even make another array with the empty drives after.
I personally find it a bit funny that the first video I saw of yours was gaming on a NAS (I think an Asustor or something), yet homeboy hasn't been using a NAS all this time...
You're EXTREMELY lucky if the drive actually survived fall from the desk. I drop tested 3 old 250GB drives and all 3 of them died after a single drop from table height. All of them still spun up but IO operations were giving errors to the point none of the data was accessible.

Second apology video needed
You had me in the first half Dawid :P Great vid as always
7:18 What? The 5500 is a disabled APU. It shares the same die as chips like the 5600G and 5700G. If you're looking to avoid potential ECC issues associated with APUs, the 5500 is an odd choice.
_Dawid, don't make a NAS of yourself._
David, there is no reason to save your old vid footage because they are posted. you only need enough storage to post one video get in get out get on with your life. :D
He didn't start with a deep sigh. This apology is not acceptable!
Love the intro, thank you so much.
