I'm going to throw my Raspberry Pi out of the window >.<

[turbozarky]

started getting some clicking drives in my file server. time to take out the old drives, some almost 15 years old. Replacing with 2 6tb server SAS drives mirroring to 2 more.

for those curious, server is a ryzen 1200 and a SAS card in an antec case. it was painted honda sonic blue back in the late 2000s.

it serves as a samba server, music server, and Vintage Story server and runs openmediavault.

NAS adventure log

Over a year ago, I bought an ODroid HC2 to build a NAS I could use to serve my media files around my home network.

The first hard drive I bought for it turned out to have an SAS connector, not SATA. Turns out there’s more than just SATA and eSATA. Huh. Wrote off that drive.

The second hard drive vanished from OpenMediaVault’s sight in the middle of building the file system. I attributed this to the ebay seller just dropping it in a bubble mailer for shipping, wrote off that drive.

The third hard drive did the same thing, so I decided it was probably a problem writing to the drive and bought an HDD enclosure so I could format my drives with my PC.

Then I moved. Threw all that equipment in a box. Didn’t do anything with it.

Set up my PC for Windows’ DLNA server thing. Didn’t meet my needs, often buggy. Set up Open Media Server. Met more of my needs, also buggy. Gave up on DLNA and started putting my videos on a flash drive I could walk between the PC and the Android TV (because of course just running a torrent client on the ATV or sending the files around by network is ridiculously slow and buggy for no good reason).

Got a second Android TV. Now I really want my videos in two locations. Also don’t want to have all the prep work of copying junk to flash drive. Guess I better finish that NAS.

Now it is today.

I decide to see if I can crack the disk setup problem. First, I go ahead and try to set up the file system on the drive that’s already on the HC2. First time, disappears in the middle like I’d seen before. Restart HC2. Successfully build file system.

Spend an hour trying to figure out how to actually NAS this NAS. Can’t find the NFS service Windows is supposed to have. Try to set up Samba. Samba can’t find the device on the network. Mess around with server and user settings in OMV. Still can’t find the device for Samba. Mess around more.

Finally try letting Samba browse the network for devices instead of trying to figure out how to format the address. There’s the device. Double click on it. Nothing happens.

OMV is back to saying it doesn’t have a hard drive. Restart HC2. Can’t load the OMV interface. Check router’s interface to see if the IP address has changed. Turns out that despite lights being on at both ends of the ethernet cable, the HC2 does not appear on the network. Restart HC2 a few more times. No change.

Throw all the equipment in a box.

It is now two hours after I started, and I am probably worse off than before.

How to use your Raspberry Pi as a NAS box - The Pi

The Raspberry Pi is small, silent, and can connect to your home network. So it’s no wonder that the Raspberry Pi NAS box is a popular...

RasNas : Nerd Quest of the week - Running a portable NAS on Raspberry Pi 3 with a portable open router to do Deluge (torrent) -> Jackett -> Sonarr / Couchpotato -> Plex Media Server -> to Bob. Extremely low powered (can run off a USB power bank) and for that digital nomad lifestyle.

This may have happened to you if you use the normal standalone Portainer under OpenMediaVault 7 (instead of OMV 7’s built-in container management).

Typically, you’d see Portainer complaining it failed to connect to the local environment (docker one).

Basically, the new docker RC version which OMV 7 installed (no-one knows why they went with a RC version) now has a minimum API version enforced. Because neither Portainer nor Watchtower yet are using that API version, their access to the docker socket is broken.

Do NOT use ChatGPT or other AI like I did for 5 hours because you will waste your time. A 3-minute plain search engine search will find discussions like this one at https://www.reddit.com/r/portainer/comments/1oumupa/docker_29_is_currently_not_compatible_with/ which explain how to adjust that minimum API version to be lower. Just note there are two lines that must be added, so do not forget the [services] line.

Which goes to show again that Reddit is cleverer than the best AI tools

مُقارنة بين OpenMediaVault و TrueNAS Core وبين Unraid: ما هو الأفضل لإعداد NAS مُخصص؟

يُعد التخزين المُتصل بالشبكة (NAS) أمرًا رائعًا إذا كنت ترغب في مشاركة البيانات أو المُحتوى أو أي شيء تُفضله مع أجهزة الكمبيوتر الأخرى المُتصلة عبر شبكة محلية (أو حتى الإنترنت!). والأفضل من ذلك، أنه يُمكنك إنشاء NAS مُخصص حسب إحتياجاتك إذا كان لديك كمبيوتر احتياطي أو Raspberry Pi. إذا كان تصميم NAS المُخصص يبدو مُعقدًا للغاية، فيُمكنك دائمًا شراء صندوق NAS جاهز للاستخدام لتوفير متاعب اختيار نظام تشغيل NAS وإعداد كل شيء. ما عليك سوى إدخال محركات الأقراص الثابتة لديك، وستكون جاهزًا للبدء. ومع ذلك، إذا كنت تتطلع إلى إنشاء NAS مُخصص، فسيتعين عليك اتخاذ بعض الخيارات الصعبة. تحقق من اختيار أفضل NAS مُتاح لخادم الوسائط المنزلي: دليل الشراء والمُقارنة.
