The Cursed NAS Setup, With Alpine Linux!

[@st4rm4st3r]

i absolutely love the chaos behind these videos, they always bring a smile to my face, and i always enjoy watching system setups that in theory shouldn't work absolutely chug along, this entire channel has a sort of mad scientist vibe to it and i love every minute of it :D

[@Geert.]

I had so much fun watching this; I love how chaotic it is

[@CaptainApathetic]

15:44 Alpine doesn't use sudo, it uses doas which basically does the same thing without a bunch of extra functions most people don't even know sudo has

[@Muykle]

One of the features missing from doas is privilege escalation.

This is strictly a USB1.1/2.0/3.0/3.1 household

[@R4dm1n]

@@WindowsG USB 3.0 aka USB 3.1 Gen 1 aka USB 3.2 Gen 1 *seriously though whytf did they do this, it hurts my fucking ocd*

[@quilak]

That was just a fun video to watch thank you very much for that! :D Also your editing work is really great and I had a few good laughs with it~

[@BobISuppose]

Wish Druaga1 was still doing KZbin. This is also a great channel. Good vibes just like Druaga1! Great job. Hope to see more setups in the future.

[@WyvernDotRed]

My NAS only has one optical drive, the only case fan is powered by jumper wires jammed into a USB header and I currently only have room for 2 drives as I removed the front cage with an extra 2. I still have a lot to learn it seems. Using SFTP over SAMBA for now at least somewhat exceeds this.

[@janhebi]

i watched the first 20 seconds frame by frame i spent so long just to know that you keep a furry in your basement ah i love it (totaly didn't wraste 10 minutes for that xD)

[@niewazneniewazne1890]

You haven't seen my cursed NAS setup with alpine linux. HP T620 with radeon texture corruption syndrome running 24/7.

[@charles.personal]

this is literally the type of scuffed computer work i do, splendid

[@LaGamerLia666]

What does the text at 0:17 say I'm on my phone and can't pause at the right time because of my fat fingers

[@dingo596]

For my NAS I use Proxmox, it's not intended to be used as a NAS OS but it's just Debian underneath do I can manage my files and share using the command line and then use the Proxmox features like the nice web GUI for managing virtual machines.

[@deanrose5676]

The screws are similar to both older Apple hardware, and Compaq. as for the SSD Icy-Dock makes a tool-less 2.5 to 3.5 converter, mine has room for two 2.5 SSD/Sata drives.

[@DhavidSetiawanKilluaDhavid]

8:12 Oh my... I miss Druaga1 concept now😂😂

[@spitslotnet]

The last time I edited my fstab file I somehow deleted my linux-lts kernel on arch... Idk how that happened

[@TruthDoesNotExist]

how did you use that t420 as a monitor?

[@MeraMadness]

I use Fedora Server but maybe I should change it to Alpine

[@oqia3]

you should take a look at ceph, it has erasure code by default unlike zfs and raid, is way easier to expand disk-wise or node-wise. although it's harded to setup since it's thought out for f-ing data centers

[@morganb900]

wdym noone uses display port i have been doing it for the past 4 years

[@user-wk8qt8ph1i]

And some older TV's have display port, plus display port to HDMI adapter is cheap also

[@morganb900]

I'd love to see a TV with display port but then again all my TV's are like 10 years old

[@eprohoda]

WindowsG- bravo! awesome viedo-work! catch you later.📢

[@WindowsG]

Heh thanks!~

[@leediffusion]

Best NAS setup video I've ever watched!

[@longhornnt4043]

I am a data hoarder like you lol.

[@adrianhomann7998]

You could have ran tmux to split your terminal into multiple terminals so you can perform asynchronous tasks

[@WindowsG]

Oh, huh didn't consider that.

[@szolcsanyiistvan4518]

Where is Arch ? :(

[@patg108]

but why go with a old HP with 3 slots when you can get a old gaming case that can hold a dozen or so? And have even more options like more fan bays and take a larger board? And don't forget the old school rails option of using the 5 1/2 bay for a floppy but substituting a 3.5 inch hdd instead, that works too., after all there is some early Core i series that can have up to 16 hdds without a expansion card, and there's a AM3+ with up to 24 sata hdds. Imagine THAT combination for a NAS, just hunt for motherboards with more sata slots or that come with sata expansion cards.

[@FakeMichau]

Btw I honestly run Arch on a laptop-server. It's 3rd gen mobile intel but idle power consumption is great because it's a laptop.

[@sbeyer17]

Intel 3000 has USB3 support, so this 4:00 is probably USB3

[@HeroRareheart]

My orignal NAS was an AM3 2 core CPU paired with 8GB of RAM and 3 1.5TB WD Green HDDs. This was a PC I pulled from the trash and had to zip tie the CPU cooler on, it SUCKED. My new NAS is also from the trash, but this one's a rackmount server. I can proudly say I have acidently hit my server with my car. Twice.

[@revstar3165]

My daily driver pc had an i3 3220 till early 2023 when i upgraded to an i5 3470 for 1.50$

[@AggressiveMenace]

I don't see anything wrong in your setup though. Alpine is just lightweight and functional, your CPU is enough (and NASes don't need too much specs) and having a superb machine for NAS, thinking for work 24/7, is just massive overkill and a crazy energy consumption. Also that case is well designed for the purpose.

[@darth_dan8886]

It defo feels overkill. Especially physical volume wise XD Neither power, size, nor storage efficient... But it's a NAS!..

Are you still using this as your NAS? ^^

[@WindowsG]

m-maybe..

[@demitriuspandi9736]

Me: NAS build? Cursed? Nah, how bad could it be? Snoopy: *instead of TrueNAS, Synology, NAS4FREE, EASYNAS, OMV, or even CASAOS on 6 to 8 drives of uniform speed, spec & size for a solid RAID 10 or RAID Z, instead mixes & matches 3 random drives & goes with Alpine & 3 optical drives.... because.... uh... um...... wait what the fu-* Me: .... w-wut? Also me: *Cannot stop drinking to cope*

[@anatolklops]

Okay, okay, admit how much of this is your "homework" folder.

[@TheDiner50]

Your making me angry.. That fan 'control' jumper solution. You get a iron and a switch or something and not whatever that is. Literately a bit of hot glue and a garbage pile switch a minimum! *Angry noises angry noises...

It could have been done easily with TrueNas or OpenMediaVault

Where's the fun in that?

OpenMediaVault and TrueNAS Core.😅
