This guide is intended to be as beginner-friendly as possible, but I should stress using an SSD will always be faster and more reliable than using a MicroSD card. If your budget allows and you’re comfortable doing so, by all means, skip the MicroSD card and start with an SSD; the rest of the process is the same. Otherwise, you can absolutely get started using a MicroSD card- just be sure to turn on automatic cloud backups as mentioned at the end of the video.
Good video. When i first started with HA wish i had a video like this to follow. Straight forward and concise. Good catch of the MicroSD card VS the SSD. I ran mine for a while on the MicroSD card until it failed. Lucky i had a backup. Good Job.
Thank you! I’m embarrassed to tell you how long it took to put this together. Your support means a lot.
@@SmartHomeTheory Oh i know how long it takes to make a good you tube video, as i am a creator myself 😀
Thank you. Excellent entry into Home Assistant. I tried to add the Google Drive Addon however it gives an error.
Very helpful! Thank you
Glad it was helpful
4 Months later, is Pi 5 compatible? This is my first Pi and my intended use. Didn't know they sorta of start over at each new iteration :)
I don't have any Zigbee devices (I don't think) but I'm using all types of smart home brands, from Tapo to TCP smart to WIZ etc. will these automatically be visible once I've set up home assistant as they're already on the network?
great video and thanks for the help
If they’re WiFi they should be discovered atomically, yes. I think it evens picks up some Bluetooth devices.
Thank you for this video very straight forward!
Question
Once I've sync all WIFI IOT devices to SD Card and Home Assistant and Created an account, Can i remove Raspberry Pi? or does it require to be plugged into WIFI Router permanently?
You're very welcome! Glad it helped.
Yes, you can connect the Raspberry Pi to your home network via WiFi so it doesn't need to be plugged directly into the router via ethernet. However, it's generally recommended to keep a wired connection for speed and reliability, especially since this will be the hub for your entire setup.
Ok! thats good thank you!
Example i would like to Set up Home Assistant at family friends home so after i set up i don't need to leave Raspberry Pi at their residency @@SmartHomeTheory
Thanks
Welcome 🤗
@@SmartHomeTheoryim beginner for home assistant and im not a programmer but i want to know how home assistant work so i need this kind of video to follow
Would you please provide a link to your recommended SSD?
I don’t use an SSD so I can’t recommend one in good conscience, sorry.
Can i set this up on my phone remotely?
I wouldn’t think so, no. Happy to be proven wrong on that.
You have beautiful hands.
Haha, I asked my girlfriend to model for me. 😅
Easy indeed, until your micro SD card fails. Find a better boot drive first.
MicroSD is fine for getting started. Had mine nearly a year already with zero issues. Still going strong. Even if it did fail that’s what cloud backups are for. I’d be up and running again in 20 minutes tops. Sure there are better alternatives but there’s no need to complicate it in the beginning.
