@fatenevermore7 ай бұрын
The N100 only has 9 PCIe lanes, so that would explain the 2 lanes per drive. Given the small footprint and power requirements, I would expect this to be more something that you'd pair with a travel router and take with you than a daily use device.

Exactly, travelling storage for a mobile lab environment is what I'm considering using this for. I currently use a Pi 4 in a Geekworm NAS case with an 8TB SSD, which is ever so slightly smaller than this and performs adequately for what I use it for. I prefer this though as I can RAID the drives, run RHEL Linux and run x86 VM's. I also carry an i7 Intel NUC running vSphere, and this could replace both. It's small enough to pop into a carry-on. Pop in two or four 2/4TB SSD's gives a decent amount of storage. I'd use it for a lab DNS/DHCP/PXE sever, Linux repo server (Red Hat, Ubuntu) for VM's, Docker container registry, Ansible playbook repo, CIFS/NFS home area and as a Plex media server. Combined with my GLi.Net travel router and my space limited MacBook Air, or even just my iPad Pro, it provides a full featured, very portable lab. Sheer performance for this sort of device is less important, to me admittedly, than portability, flexibility and storage capacity.

I'm a tiny bit confused: You seem quite critical of this little box not having a built-in wifi card and also that it was downgraded the PCIe gen 3 x 4 (maybe due to excessive heat generation in such a little box?) However... I just bought an Asustor Flashstor 6 FS6706T (yes, Gen 1 because of a lack of integrated GPU for transcoding) which you have previously reviewed multiple times. As you know, it's a much larger unit with lots of internal space yet it does not have a built-in wifi card and, if I'm not mistaken, if you populate all 6 of its M.2 NVMe slots in RAID 5 (common), then it will be running with PCIe Gen 3 x1 for its NVMe SSD slots, meaning "each drive connects to the NAS via a PCIe 3.0 lane with a single lane width, which is considered relatively slower compared to higher PCIe lane configurations when in a RAID 5 configuration; however, the overall performance is still significantly faster than traditional SATA drives due to the NVMe SSDs themselves". So, having said that, why did you not give the same harsh review of the FS6706T having just 1 Gen 3 lane and no wifi? I'm mostly just curious since my new NAS lacks both PCIe Gen 3x4 and wifi support.
@nascompares13 күн бұрын
Hi man. In the case of the FS6, it has 2x 2.5GbE, so 2 network interfaces for failover at 250MB/s each. However the K100 has only 1 network output and no failover - that's why I criticised the lack of WiFi, as it would at least be a failover option and a means to increase traffic to 4 NVMe. I only raised WiFi as a factor as it is present on practically all over mini pc NAS conversions and it would have been a net plus in external connectivity. Re: the m.2 lane distribution. There are alot of weaker / older CPU 4 bay NAS devices in the market (ef celeron N5105 systems) that have 3x2 lane distribution on their SSD bays (eg TBS-464) - yet this newer N100 system has 3x1 on all 4. The FS6 has 6 bays and therefore I'm less critical of the 3x1...however, I DO criticise ASUSTOR for this in my "Flashstor Should You Buy" video. The main negative I had on the K100 was that (at least at launch) the price was too high for the hardware provided, when so many other N100 options and even celeron solutions exist that are better NAS builds. This is less pertinent now, as the price has come down notably, but at the time this was a real bummer. I hope this explains my review process for you and thank you for watching the video bud

@nascompares7 ай бұрын
It easily saturates the external 2.5G with just 1 drive. But my main concern was that the N100 did not afford much in the way of throughput internally to the SSD. The internal 3x2 bandwidth per drive (so a maximum 2GB each) is there, but the N100 just does have the "umpf" to manage 4x Gen 3x2 m.2 particular highly. The appeal of alot of flash systems is that although you might have more than enough to fully saturate externally, you also have the means for fast internal throughput for bigger databases + container and VMs. This system felt very "middle of the road", despite its 4 SSD build. Plus, fixed low memory hurt too

I am a newbie when it comes to networking and NAS solutions, but I have a idea of one I want to try but I’m unsure if it’s feasibility. My solution to a small NAS is to use a mini-PC (Beelink Mini S12 Mini PC) with a 128GB NVME M.2 for the OS and Urbackup as the NAS software solution, a 4Tb SATA 2.5 SSD for interior storage expansion. That’s for the first part, the further expansion plan is to attach a 4 Bay HDD Cage Chassis, connecting it to the Beelink through a NVME M-Key PCI Express to SATA 3.0 Adapter Converter Hard Drive Extension Card. My only unsure portion of the NAS, is my decision to power the 4 Bay Chassis using a Pico UPS (24pin DC ATX PSU 12V DC Input DC 12V 150-watt Pico PSU) as the power source attaching a COMeap ATX Power Jumper Cable to turn the chassis on/off. On paper it seems as if it should work but of course like I stated I’m a newbie. What do you think? Would it work?

Absolute newbie to this area and wanted to ask this community questions about upgrading my system to support a "big data" project. My project is software than has to analyze ~10TB of medical data. The issues/concerns I have with my current setup are: 1) data transfer speed; and 2) capacity. The data is already backed up on offline drives so I am not concerned with RAID redundancy. I am trying to decide whether to buy a new computer and/or add a NAS (and if so what kind -HDD, SSD, or hybrid). I have an Alienware R11 (thus PCIe Gen 3), with 32GB of RAM, a 2.5Gb network connection. It has two NVMe slots, one is occupied with a 1TB SSD on which the operating system is stored. In the other slot I installed an 8TB Sabrent Rocket 4 SSD. I have also installed two WD Ultrastar 22TB HDDs. The issue is that the 8TB SSD speed is limited by the motherboard and is also too small to hold all the data. Data transfer speeds from the HDDs max at ~250MB/sec. Thus, it takes many hours (almost a day) to read the data. I want a system at least twice as fast with at least 30TB capacity. Do I buy a new computer with Gen 4/5 PCIe and more NVMe slots that I load with the max TB SSDs I can afford and split the data across (suggestions for specific models appreciated)? Or do I add a NAS (again, suggestions appreciated)? Or do I do both? Internet wizards share your wisdom!

N100 supports 9 PCIe lanes Gen 3, so it would make sense to get PCIE (Gen 3) x2 for all of them (x2 * 4 = 8 lanes, which does not exceed 9), CPU doing its best... Also the reason why it's not worth buying any flash NAS (or mini PC) when CPU was N5105 or these new N95/N97/N100/N200/N300, cause CPU won't be able to use these SSDs to their full potential (Asustor Flashstor FS6706T is a good example of not picking the right CPU). CPU don't need to have huge TDP to handle number of lanes (see Ryzen V models like in Synology DS1821+/23+). If anyone needs/wants to get full-flash NAS, make sure CPU can handle the total number of lanes (x4 * number of SSDs). TBS-h574TX (both versions) can handle 20 PCIe lanes, reason why this NAS offers 5 SSD slots (NAS is overall "balanced/relevant"). Also, NIC can book some PCIE lanes too...

Transcoding would then have to be done in software on the main CPU, and when you have multiple 4K @ 60fps being served, I doubt it would be able to deal with that.
