  • Well, it's only been two years since I built this server.

  • Yeah, This one here, it's been befitting that.

  • I'm gonna do something with it now.

  • Finally, that's got a lot of Cool Harbor in it.

  • And we're gonna use it for something seemingly remedial.

  • I think I figured.

  • And I figured who better to talk about A delayed project that bring the king delayed projects himself.

  • Ironically, I made a video once.

  • You guys, I got new merge.

  • It's available now.

  • Probably dot com slash tasty sense.

  • We got zip up hoodies.

  • We got tri blend.

  • We have a new logo.

  • I digress.

  • Since 2012 it's a rest.

  • A little.

  • He has been asking for that anyway.

  • Wait, What kinds of stuff?

  • Zip hoodies, Beanies, polos.

  • Don't take my word for it is.

  • Obviously I can't do this ad.

  • So just looking description below When you guys find the link.

  • Thanks.

  • No, In all seriousness, I flew Jerry down here for two reasons.

  • One to prove you guys, I haven't murdered him.

  • I don't hate him that much.

  • I think I d'oh and prove that you can still get away with only buying one ticket to get on the plane suffer.

  • It was a first class ticket.

  • If it needed two days, there's a fighter.

  • Doesn't.

  • Okay, so, hardware wise, I'm gonna go through this again very quickly.

  • We did a whole build video on this where I was like, the next part.

  • We could actually turn it into a raid.

  • And we never did that a long time.

  • So it's got the same drives in it that it had initially we had 15 10 terabyte iron wolf drives.

  • We've got eight of them in here.

  • Two of them were in Phil's rig now and then five of them are still sitting in a box.

  • That way, we'll know we could expand it, right.

  • That sort of thing with under way are using unread for this, though, um, for its ease of use in this flexibility, we'll talk about that.

  • I've never actually set one up.

  • Jerry has already played around with this, and I did fly him down here to help us make sure that this was an especially possible.

  • He's way more informed than I am when it comes to the software side of things.

  • I'm a hardware guy.

  • There's no there's no hiding that I'm running a raid controller here, which is the SAS last raid controller to control our eight drives.

  • So it is using a a sass breakout to force eight up her side.

  • And there's technically two controllers in there, I guess.

  • And then they're going to our drives out here and they are numbered, so we can kind of keep tabs on what's what.

  • But the beauty of it is we're not using it is rate controller were not really fast, basically assassin or a state of controller at that point.

  • More Port Star motherboard.

  • Because even though we are using an A c o W s x 2 99 pro, which is a workstation board, you remember that G's, That's all I do is remember numbers.

  • Now, um, for some reason.

  • On the previous x 2 99 W s Dash 10 G, it had like 10 state of ports.

  • This one's got six.

  • So for whatever reason, aces kind of penalty backpedal that went backwards in the hardware side of control.

  • But it also doesn't have a 10 g wire.

  • Wireless doesn't have a 10 g wired nick built in, so we had to add one of those too.

  • For this, we went with the action.

  • A que en 1-107 I'll put Linksys and description.

  • I did get them off.

  • Amazon Controller.

  • If you're curious, it's the Ellis I Dash 2008 Dash way.

  • We're gonna do free now.

  • Yeah, yeah.

  • So UN raid was always the plan because it gave us the ability to with free No, as you can't use a a box of head on, right?

  • It's headless, You can't use the EMS and I guess you can, But it's really convoluted.

  • It's it's very convoluted.

  • And from the command line primarily think of it as like a backbone FreeBSD similar in a lot of art, you'll get a lot of arguments with tech community.

  • Yeah, your next based on Forget I said that.

  • But the point is, unrated is gonna be a lot easier for us to build a server in a tower like this that you could physically sit at at a box that would run a virtual machine, that you could use this as if it were a desktop.

  • You'd never know the difference, but it was also connected to the network to work as a nasty our situation for the company has changed in the way that we're doing things now.

  • So that's no longer the case or the necessity so I could rip out this this 1921 1927 9 20 Extend for 20 threat intel.

  • See if you sold and go with, like, a small I t x I three or something?

  • Is it just a controller for Andre?

  • That's all of it.

  • But because the original hardware that's in here is already here, we're just using it.

  • But I want to mention it with unrated.

  • That was something you could do.

  • The reason why we have the tight next sitting in there is because of the fact that all of that passed through was gonna happen through the G few.

  • So the faster the beef here in the higher be ram and all that stuff you better.

  • It would have been that virtual machine experience interacting with virtual machine and the physical mess inside.

  • We're not doing that anymore, but we are still using unrated.

  • No, I've never actually done unrated.

  • So what we're gonna do is I'm gonna sit down and just kind of worked my way through it jury's gonna kind of help me as I go.

  • This is not a tutorial.

  • Always want pre face that this is the second part of us building this where we're finally gonna have a place to archive all of our footage because we are definitely starting to use our storage.

  • We're gonna be also turning this into a steam game server.

  • So it's gonna be mounted to our network through a 10 g connection, which already said, and I would love a 40 but don't have fiber, and I'm here to do that.

  • But fools I know, right?

  • It's going to allow us, though, when we do our benchmark it.

  • The problem with our benchmarking is we'll pull out the test bench or maybe have to re install an operating system entirely.

  • And like when the new resin stuff that was all fresh installs of everything.

  • And if you ever had to install a game like let's just say g t a five, that's like 78 gigabytes or something like that, just about everything, including even if you have a gigabit down like we do here.

  • It still takes like, 30 minutes to download the game, and that's just for one game.

  • So what we want to do is mount this on the network.

  • Have our games installed here in all of our machines were just pointed.

  • This network drive for the installation location, which means your game or Phil's games are gonna be on there.

  • My game's gonna be on their next games, could be on there.

  • And then whoever is account you log into on whatever machine is still gonna pull all those files.

  • And then when we log in from a machine's, it'll trigger the updates and all that sort of stuff.

  • So that's the other idea behind it.

  • I'm most excited about that.

  • To be honest in the archive footage in the backing up of data and 2% of stuff, it's the fact that I won't have to wait for steam.

  • Yeah, plus Phil combined crypto coins in jail.

  • All right, so the sea, the username here's route, and then there's no passage.

  • You know magic about it.

  • So this is the gooey.

  • Obviously, you got your dashboard running under fire flocks.

  • That's why you need 64 gigs around a hurry to get the demon as we go.

  • All right, so what we want to do?

  • Right?

  • Here is the first stage set up J.

  • So go to your dashboard here and click on that.

  • You go ahead and give your machine a name.

  • We've already gone in on the last boot.

  • Did some of this stuff you got your nasty sort of what we call now.

  • Gonna call it J Roc's like it like a doll.

  • What do you put in there in the sea?

  • It's important to personalize guys.

  • It's really important to personalize your stuff.

  • And I know this sounds like some sort of ah uber show.

  • You like Andre Video, but they don't even know we're making this video right now.

  • This is a matter of fact.

  • We were gonna use free.

  • We're recommend, literally.

  • Guys, look at this.

  • Yeah, we started with three nests at 9 a.m. And that's how long it took us two way finally just said, OK, we're doing UN raid.

  • We're going to do free now is because we were like, Well, we don't need the past through option anymore of'em and all that stuff.

  • We're not gonna use it as a physical box sitting at.

  • So I ordered these 10 G cards on free Nas and even though says they have supported by FreeBSD and free and as is built on FreeBSD of this, these Knick cards are not supported it because there's no 10 G built into this motherboard.

  • We were gonna have a one G connection for our server, which is obviously not good enough.

  • So we basically said, Screw it, we're going on right Anyway, I think we're happy that we did All right, So let's get this set up.

  • It's very easy to do.

  • Just go click on me and let your next little option over and down.

  • Here you have parity, parity disks or your destiny.

  • Basically, when they're built, if you have a failure of a drive in the system, the parody discs steps in and saves you.

  • Basically, the reason it's called unrated, because this is literally not a raid, and there's a lot of pros and cons of that.

  • But NARC East pros they should have called it an a d a.

  • Not a rate mattering.

  • There you go.

  • So we want to do here, is assigned the drives to their roles, wouldn't pick one of these drives on.

  • Then you're paired to drive to.

  • Let's go ahead and pick one more.

  • Now we have to parody drives.

  • That's going to show you the smart.

  • One of my concerns was that these are these are these are Dr they're designed to be in, like, two or four you blades, Do you believe?

  • Yes.

  • Which normally have, like Delta all cosy fans blasting Hear them in a data center.

  • My concern about me filling up in front of these with drives and being in a standard box like this, it wouldn't have decent air flow.

  • But what the fans running full speed on the front of this through in a Iot actually on this should be an air cooler for the ultimate reliability.

  • They're running nice and cool, although they're not being taxed right now.

  • But I can monitor this, though, if he goes, if I'm on the gooey and he goes in, he starts like just slamming it with data and reading, writing all that.

  • We can see how I will set it up to send you notifications of anything goes sideways.

  • So now we've got six drives remaining.

  • Let's go ahead and start assigning those to these six discs.

  • Lots just grabbed the 1st 1 from each one does remove from Absolutely.

  • No, no, no.

  • So go ahead, grab that one and just go down the list until you exhaust all your drives.

  • I should give you sex, but not Psst.

  • Not that Sistine.

  • Do not want to add that since says that's our cash.

  • Yep.

  • Going on the sign yourself if I want to add another cash, I just put the other drive in, put it back up and then added here.

  • Yes.

  • Then another.

  • That Is that so?

  • All right, So here's our cash drive.

  • I assume their essence be So we could have done this with all I says.

  • Dee's, I guess.

  • Like Linus did one way.

  • Want to add more cash?

  • We could just plop visit.

  • Doesn't have to be a match.

  • Drive the same capacity we know this asshole.

  • No.

  • No.

  • So I could just pop in a 500 gig if I wanted, so Okay.

  • You know what I saw earlier?

  • I'm gonna assume that, but it's possible that if you want to raid those, which is another option, you can raid the cash drives, improve performance, then I would say we want All right, So now what you're gonna see right here is that down here, it's building the parody and formatting the drives.

  • Right.

  • So this is at 0.1% on parody.

  • Okay, Correct.

  • So if we want to build it out right now, test it, get it, get our network applications and all that set up?

  • Yep.

  • We could do that.

  • And then when we're done at the end of a just tell it to go hope we don't have our ups.

  • And you should have Yeah.

  • No, that's naked support.

  • It supports it to it.

  • All set up now drives off.

  • We don't have shares with all the way to access.

  • All you've done is told it that you want to make one way, have the warehouse, but no doors.

  • One doesn't want to pause the rebuild operation that's in progress.

  • Getting hit.

  • Pause.

  • You don't want to hit.

  • Cancel.

  • Cancel your starting over from scratch.

  • You're, like, 30% after five hours.

  • That startled cancel.

  • You're gonna kick yourself in the teeth.

  • All right, So now this is this is pause.

  • What we want to do is we want to go and create a share.

  • Okay?

  • So share is basically it's gonna look like a drive on the network.

  • So how We have eight drives in this machine.

  • If we added multiple shares, it looked like if we hadn't even with drives, so we don't need that.

  • We just need a mane access point to this box.

  • So we have one share and then everything broken out in that one chair.

  • Unless you want to have more granular control, you can create other shares.

  • So I'm gonna call this big old thank you can rename lease at any point.

  • None of this college ladies they're like, Oh, my God, that's amazing.

  • What you really want to look at those included discs notice on says all That's good.

  • That means that when you're copying stuff to this, it's gonna spread it out amongst all those disks.

  • Best that it can.

  • All right, So for user's, you don't need to make a user to access.

  • This is this is visible on the network right now.

  • Yes.

  • Okay, But having the default route with no password account is dangerous because anyone with access to this then could log into it and literally anybody on your network to take out.

  • Okay, so we're not gonna do it right now because it's just Phil and I.

  • But it's probably best practice to go in here, create another user and probably change the password on stuff that settles.

  • Clicking on that, just like you wouldn't take your default router out of the box and not change the admin password.

  • Okay, so there's a lot of the tools and stuff you could probably look at here, but for this, I mean, this was never meant to be a tutorial, just just kind of showing some of the use case of un raid because one of the biggest things, like, way built this and I said we were gonna be using I'm reading that video something like using a great free Nasreen aspirin.

  • If we spent two days while you spent all of yesterday, that was visible.

  • Hard word, miss Configuration.

  • But it is.

  • And then 3/4 of today, just trying to get free nas toe work with are freakin Nick cart.

  • Yes, and that was that was both of you and help you kind of know what you're doing with Lennox.

  • At least to some degree.

  • You do.

  • He does.

  • And you guys kind of overlapped.

  • Who knew what, and you guys still couldn't get the damn thing to work.

  • But I think what?

  • You found one user online.

  • I got its work.

  • All right, so here's what we do.

  • I'm gonna get my laptop.

  • I'm fired up and, um or actually do this.

  • Let's go to Phil's machinery.

  • Quick, because he's on the 10 g, my wireless.

  • What good does that mean?

  • We can access files, but speed is important because you could edit off this if you want it.

  • Yes, that's not the idea behind it, but you could.

  • And so let's go ahead.

  • Since this is wired through cat five e, I want to point that out.

  • We're using a 100 foot cat, five cable running all the way across the studio and into the office, just to show you don't need cat six.

  • If you're not running long distances, that still, why not use it if it's there and it's the same price?

  • But this is probably not the best way to do this.

  • We're gonna show you still with the read write speeds are on this, and we're gonna talk about what affects those beats.

  • All right, so this witchery is here is a Seuss ex G u 2008 to 10 gigabit base, which means as to 10 gigabits connections on there.

  • And then the rest are the standard one gigabit.

  • We also had a change of perception network set up a little bit.

  • Some of you guys might have noticed that when we redid the wiring here, I redid the wiring.

  • I completely screwed it up where I was going modem to switch to router, which was kind of really screwing up our network path and was the way I peace were being handed out was not right.

  • So cause all kinds of problems.

  • So what we did was we actually relocated the motive.

  • From here he is just a nothing back out next to the router.

  • Then we're going from router to the switch and then the switch to stuff here.

  • But his computer is hooked up to the 10 g port, and so is the server.

  • We just said about there with that really long caf Ivy cable which we talked about.

  • This is the other end of the 100 foot cable.

  • So let's go and see now how our cat five e is doing in terms of Dragon and dropping a father.

  • How big this file.

  • So I made a custom little really big zip.

  • That's 15 gigabytes.

  • And so here's a big old thing.

  • The one that made right there.

  • Right?

  • So if I just dragging, dropped right?

  • Yep, way we're getting 1.1 gigabytes per second and is dropping down a little bit.

  • So right about 475.

  • But, I mean, we don't normally work off 15 gigabyte files.

  • In fact, an entire video we shoot on our office five or F seven is usually around 22 22 gigabytes, depending on the project.

  • If it's like a PC building lots of B roll, it's lots of smaller, like one gigabyte files.

  • So this is actually really, really good even 500 megabytes a second.

  • Considering we're dealing with spinning drives on the 10 g connection is actually something that is really good.

  • So that's that.

  • Basically, um I mean, an idiot could do it.

  • I kind of sort of did.

  • Jerry needed needed to help me.

  • So I guess you have to get your own Gerry if you want help.

  • So we're gonna have Jerry actually copy the file again because I want to see what's happening here with the interface wants what's happening with the memory.

  • And I want to what's happening with Dr Temps because my biggest concern is obviously gonna be he's gonna start doing it right now.

  • My biggest concern is gonna be Dr.

  • Tim sits up saying we're not in a blade server.

  • Our government, everyone gets to see you.

  • Wow, that's a decent See you being used actually might be that with Dr Temps are not really changing it all.

  • We did peg H h T threat, and you can see inbound 10 gigabits copping it to the servers.

  • Only one way, right.

  • So do me a favour.

  • Change the name of it on the server and then pull it back to his machine.

  • You got it right.

  • I like having a Jerry to go back and forth.

  • I'll bet you I'll bet you two cents James two cents that it's the same.

  • It just about lower because it'll be bottlenecked by the SSC on my computer.

  • I want this is literally faster than any of the drives in there.

  • Except for the enemy of me.

  • Maybe.

  • All right, so now he's copping it over 3.33 point nine.

  • Your internal drive is bottle necking.

  • How fast This can copy down.

  • No more state of drives here in this warehouse, just there to slow.

  • That's pretty much it for this vlog.

  • I guess this is super nerdy stuff that I wish I knew more about.

  • Like, I wish I knew how to actually set up like Windows Raid and now, as and all that sort of stuff.

  • But the nice thing about the gooey system here, the gooey set up here with UNR aid is that it literally is just click and play.

  • I mean, it's just that simple.

  • It's up and running.

  • It's more than good enough for what we're doing.

  • We can confidently add drives to this ad cash to it.

  • And it wasn't for the fact that Jerry came down here.

  • I swear to God, this would not.

  • This would still be sitting on the floor in the other studio collecting dust because I was just completely like this was a daunting task for me.

  • I'm a hardware guy, not a software guy.

  • And I know you run raids and stuff and servers at your house.

  • Yeah, I've used free now is in the past.

  • But you've never used this before.

  • No.

  • Okay, so why don't you give us like your 62nd review of how this works?

  • All right, So the thing I like about unrated is that it works a lot like Windows Home Server usedto work by using each disc independently, having its own file system so that if everything blows up in those wrong, you can pull it out, put in your system and recover your data.

  • I love the way that they handle the parody.

  • You do lose some performance because you don't have that striping.

  • Keep building a regular radio controller.

  • But what you lose, you gain inconvenience.

  • The nice thing about this, because we're allowing the software itself to control the raid instead of using a complicated raid controller that we may not be able to get our hands on if we blow it up, we're always assured that we can get another drive in there.

  • If my sass controller dies, that should be.

  • We'll just replace it with another SAS control.

  • It could be anything.

  • Anything that connects those drives.

  • You're right.

  • It's very resilient.

  • Drivers support.

  • Yeah.

  • Yeah, people love that card by the way, too.

  • So I was really disappointed.

  • Free Now's didn't support that, but I'm glad everything's working.

  • So Hey, Phil, get a server now.

  • But, like, I didn't do it Way Haven't, though.

  • He'll build it, But we haven't.

  • You guys saw it, though?

  • You think it's a pretty capable piece of software for the little money?

  • They're asking for it, and they're really good about support.

  • So I'm much more comfortable leaving a guy like Jay with this offer.

  • Then I would be open source free.

  • That's what you got there, sir.

  • We're gonna We're gonna figure this to Controller Nick Carter, huh?

  • Hey.

  • Hey.

  • Feel like I hear these vines crap coins.

  • Really?

  • Well, let's call it a super job.

Well, it's only been two years since I built this server.
