Until I get 10GB networking and SSD data drives in the unRAID server I think saving and working off of files locally is my best option. This should save them locally on my workstation SSD and then sync them to my Unraid/Nextcloud Dell Server. 16GB ram (4x4GB), no HDD'sĪll 3D CAD and video files to be saved/accessed from the "Nextcloud" App on my workstation. Thecus 5Big Pro Nas (5Bay) with 5x 2TB, currently has TrueNAS running on it but the drives are SMR so TrueNAS is not the best option (I can set it back to OEM OS or unRAID)Įxtra workstations I can salvage for parts :Ģx Dell T1600, CPU E3-1245, 16GB Ram (4x4GB), SSD HDDġx Dell T1650, CPU E3-1220. Synology NAS 1515+ (5Bay): with 5x 2TB SMR drives available (Primary use is file server for 3D CAD, will have Plex and home assistantmaybe pi-hole in the future). UnRAID file server: Dell PowerEdge R510, 64GB Ram, 2x X5620 CPU, 6TB Parity + 6TB/3TB/1TB/1TB/1TB mechanical drives + 1TB EVO860 SSD Cache. Workstation for 3D CAD/Revit/Rendering video Editing: i74770, 16GB Ram, 1TB EVO 860SSD (I know its weak, but it works for now) I have options but am second guessing myself. But this would make it so I don't have to delete my existing SMB targets on my backup OMV to start over.Hello all, I have recently started building my Homelab and and looking for recommendations on how to best configure my fileserver/workflow and backups with the equipment I have available to me. Not sure if this will work because of the whole file level vs. Then install iSCSI services on that linux VM and set up that same mount point as an iSCSI target for my single Windows VM to target. So what I'm thinking is (this is pretty dirty) - but setting up a Linux VM to mount the CIFS shares to a mount point on the system. So that means I'd also have to set up Windows to be able to be an rsync target, which I don't know that it can do. And this introduces another problem because my primary NAS (which is also OMV) does a daily rsync to the backup NAS. It seems like the the only way to make this work is to change my entire backup architecture to be an iSCSI target to a windows VM, then let the VM share out the SMB shares to the other systems on my network. Unfortunately, in addition of the slight headache it was of adding the necessary extra plugins into OMV to get iSCSI functionality, it didn't work because SMB Shares are set up in OMV as file level shares and iSCSI is block level. I was hoping to set up my existing smb shares to also be iSCSI targets, have one of my Windows VM's iSCSI initiators set to those targets so the VM would see them as local storage. Their Windows client also only backs up local disks to that system. Unfortunately, when I originally set up my in-home Backup solution, it's OpenMediaVault (OMV) running SMB shares and one of those shares is also an rsync target for my primary NAS.īackblaze only has a Windows client and Mac client, but no Linux client. I want to get my off-site backups going and I've decided to use Backblaze for this. r/HomeNetworking - Simpler networking advice. r/pfsense - for all things pfsense ('nix firewall) Might be able to find things useful for a lab. r/hardwareswap - Used hardware, swap hardware. r/buildapcsales - For sales on building a PC r/linux - All flavors of Linux discussion & news - not for the faint of heart!
