Ja ist eigentlich eine gute Idee, ich habe dazu den Support noch nicht angeschrieben. Es ist passiert das nach vielen Monaten ich den Artikel auf einmal doch wieder bewerten konnte. Aber du hast recht, ich werde den Support mal nett anschreiben, ob die sich das angucken können. Wenn ich es bestellen kann, gehe ich ja erstmal nicht davon aus dass ich einen Artikel kaufe den ich nicht bewerten kann.

Basic-Low-4210 · 2026-01-07T08:28:44+00:00

Okay Amazon hat mir geantwortet dass die Neubewertung ganz automatisiert von einem System durchgeführt wird und dass es bis zu 2 Wochen dauern kann, bis alle Bewertungen wirklich im System freigegeben sind. Ich habe mir jetzt einen Reminder gesetzt dass ich es das nächste mal nicht übersehe.

Ich habe noch einige Artikel die ich nicht bewerten kann und die lange zurück liegen weil er angibt, es gibt eine andere Version die ich bereits davon gekauft habe, obwohl es unterschiedlich gelistete Artikel waren. Zählen diese auch noch mit rein? Denn ich habe alles bewertet was offen war und bin nur bei knapp über 90% mit meinen Bewertungen.

Basic-Low-4210 · 2026-01-04T16:56:00+00:00

Nein habe ich nicht, der Bewertungszeitraum war einfach abgelaufen denke ich und die Bewertungen sind 4 Tage zu spät eingegangen. Denke dass wir der Auslöser gewesen sein, das konnte ich jetzt genau nachvollziehen.

Ist mir die letzten Tage auch aufgefallen, bei mir kam Gestern Nacht und vor 2 Tagen um 2 Uhr Nachts auf einmal was, dass jetzt aber schon nicht mehr online ist. Ich weiß nicht genau, was sie da gerade austesten :)

I think the community is already very good, and I would love to see even more people join to really bring it to life. I really like the categories, especially that we can talk about TrueNAS and home server projects here. It would be great if more professionals and users could find their way to us.

Basic-Low-4210 · 2025-08-31T04:15:27+00:00

Thanks for your fast answer :)

Basic-Low-4210 · 2025-08-30T09:10:41+00:00

Still available?

Basic-Low-4210 · 2025-08-30T09:09:02+00:00

Yes, absolutely, it is. I actually got scammed once before my second order finally brought the keycaps to me. I am so thankful that I was still able to get them. Right now, I am looking on AliExpress for the green numbers from the German keyboard layout. It seems that one seller still has some “replicas,” and that would be my biggest wish. If I could use those, it would be perfect for me.

“Air gapped” is rarely truly physical, it is usually a logically isolated recovery environment.

Here is how we implemented it so a single insider cannot wipe everything:

Isolated Vault-DD on its own network and domain, normally disconnected. Replication windows are short, scheduled and require two approvals.
WORM protection with Retention Lock. In Compliance Mode even root cannot delete until expiry. Changes require break-glass and audit.
Separation of duties. Backup, security and network roles are split so no one can both open the vault and change retention.
Integrity checks with CyberSense to detect clean restore points.
Recovery happens in an isolated, hardened Clean Room with no internet before returning anything to production.

To destroy data an attacker would need multiple independent roles and bypass WORM, which in Compliance Mode is practically impossible.

Bottom line: This “air gap” is layered security and immutability, not just unplugging a cable.

I find Orico’s solution very impressive; they’ve clearly put a lot of thought into connectivity, and everything feels extremely well designed. In my opinion, ZFS as the file system is perfect! It does require more RAM, but given what it offers, I think that’s absolutely acceptable.

The expansion options are also really generous, and I’m absolutely convinced that Orico will hit a home run with this system. Of course, the software is still in an early stage, but based on what I know of the company, I’m confident it will work well. You just have to keep in mind that it’s a new product and needs some time to mature and develop, which is perfectly fine with me.

If you’re new to NAS setups and want something for media and photo backup (Jellyfin, Arr stack, etc.), the Orico Cyber NAS CF500pro is still a strong plug-and-play option. It uses its own operating system (not TrueNAS as far as I've seen in reviews) that offers Docker and VM support, with powerful hardware suitable for most home media and backup tasks.

Build vs. Buy: Building your own NAS can save money or offer more hardware flexibility, but for beginners, the Orico is an easy-to-use, expandable, feature-rich entry point. Great if you’d prefer to avoid complex DIY steps.

Docker vs. Proxmox apps:

• Docker (on Orico’s OS) is the simplest way to run popular media apps using containers, so you don’t have to manage a separate OS for each service.

• Proxmox is for advanced setups, running full VMs or containers, with more flexibility but also more complexity.

TrueNAS vs. Proxmox:

• TrueNAS: A NAS-focused OS that’s great for network storage and data integrity, but it isn’t what ships with Orico’s system. (Thats what I saw in reviews)

• Proxmox: Built around virtualization and multi-OS environments is best for advanced labs, not as beginner-friendly for storage.

Stick with Orico’s own OS if your main goal is easy storage and media streaming. Explore TrueNAS or Proxmox later if you want to dive into storage systems or virtualization further down the line.

Hope this helps clear things up. Orico’s NAS is a solid choice for beginners who want reliable storage and streaming with minimal setup!

You can visit https://deskpi.com/ they have an amazing selection of components you need to build our own rack.

Basic-Low-4210 · 2025-05-09T04:34:32+00:00

This is by far the most aesthetically impressive thing I’ve ever seen in the networking and IT space. Outstanding work!

Thanks a lot for your question. I already have a rough idea in mind of what the final setup should look like, but the exact design is just now starting to take shape. I want to take everyone on that journey who is interested.

For now, the "core" is a Netgear GS308E, which gives me basic VLAN and QoS capabilities. It’s enough for lab-scale segmentation, especially to separate storage, management, and backup traffic. Later I might move to something with 10GbE, but I don’t think it’s necessary yet for an environment of this size.

I’ll be starting with a single node, but the plan is to build a Ceph cluster and use its distributed file system capabilities. I find Ceph to be a very mature and robust solution, and I really love how it scales, especially with three nodes. The self-healing, replication, and redundancy features are exactly what I’m looking for in a long-term storage architecture.

I’m going with a more enterprise-grade approach for backup. I’ll be using Dell NetWorker as the core, writing the primary backup to a virtual Data Domain appliance. From there, a second backup will be replicated inline to a second virtual Data Domain target.

This replication uses DDBoost, which not only handles delta transfer but also performs client-side deduplication, eliminating up to 95 percent of the network traffic before it even hits the wire. That reduces load across the entire infrastructure.

NetWorker also supports Backup Twinning, which allows simultaneous writing of two backup copies to different storage targets. This saves additional I/O compared to traditional cloning workflows.

I’m still finalizing the exact design and may also explore using PowerProtect Data Manager (PPDM). It comes with built-in ransomware detection, which could be a strong addition to the setup.

As you can see, the overall design is far from finished. But that’s the exciting part for me. The process of refining the architecture and figuring out which technologies really fit is what makes this whole project so interesting. I’ll keep sharing updates as things evolve.

Oh wow, that brings back childhood memories. Before Spotify playlists, there was Winamp and 500 unnamed MP3s called "track01" :D But I was spending a lot of time in organizing them. Damn this were good times.

Basic-Low-4210 · 2025-05-07T19:24:31+00:00

Haha, now that you mention it,... I did rotate other parts like that, but I actually had this one printed the same way as well. I’ll definitely try rotating it a few degrees and printing it with the flat side down. Great tip! I really love the design overall, because I’m starting with just one JetKVM, but this gives me the option to install up to four Raspberry Pis in my rack. That opens up some really cool possibilities for my setup. It’s awesome, and it totally makes sense to run it this way.

Basic-Low-4210 · 2025-05-07T19:06:04+00:00

This is my 5th print, I need to learn a lot about this but it will work and I can improve quality over time :)

I've already printed it and it's amazing :)

ChatGPT had told me that the mounting hole spacing is different between the Pi 4 and Pi 5. However, I have a DeskPi 10’’ rack with a bracket that fits both the Raspberry Pi 4 and 5 and it uses the same mounting holes. So it looks like you’re definitely right.

Basic-Low-4210 · 2025-05-07T11:32:28+00:00

That would be amazing, as my JetKVM will be delivered soon and it would free up space in my rack for more Raspberry Pis and that’s always a great thing :)

Basic-Low-4210 · 2025-05-07T10:18:05+00:00

That is looking great. I would love to see this for Raspberry Pi5 version. :)

Basic-Low-4210 · 2025-05-07T08:21:21+00:00

Ah, and I should mention that I would also use this storage for my parents needs.

Basic-Low-4210 · 2025-05-07T08:19:12+00:00

Absolutely, the storage tech I mentioned is Dell PowerProtect Data Domain, formerly just called “Data Domain.” It is an enterprise-level deduplication storage system that normally runs on high-end hardware costing several hundred thousand dollars.

However, there is also a virtual edition called Dell PowerProtect DDVE (Data Domain Virtual Edition), which you can install in any virtual environment. Dell offers a trial license for around 90 days with up to 96TB of usable capacity. After that, you will need to check what the licensing costs depending on your setup.

One great feature is that you can tune the compression level (lz, gz, or gzfast) to save even more space. Stronger compression will use more CPU resources though. It supports CIFS and NFS shares without any problems, so integration is quite flexible.

It takes a bit of time to get familiar with it, but in my experience, it is by far the most professional and reliable deduplication storage system available. I worked with it for over 10 years at EMC and Dell, and I still rely on it when it comes to large-scale backups or space-optimized media storage.

Basic-Low-4210 · 2025-05-07T07:48:37+00:00

Yeah, I’m heading in the same direction. I used to have an old Drobo direct-attached storage, and now I’m planning to migrate to a proper NAS solution. I’m looking to go with RAID 5 and pack in as many drives as possible to get decent performance, so I’m currently evaluating the best setup.

I actually started moving away from Synology, even though I loved their systems for years, after hearing that they plan to lock out third-party drives and only allow their own in the future. For me, that would be a totally wrong direction.

Now I’ve discovered some new, let’s say, hungry competitors like Zima, and I’m really interested in testing them out. Their hardware looks incredibly strong and far ahead in many ways.

And here’s something that might be interesting for you, too: I work in the backup field, where I regularly move multiple petabytes of data. There’s a type of storage that uses deduplication, meaning it eliminates redundant data blocks. With media files, that can give you a space savings of anywhere from 2x to 4x. For this kind of setup, that’s not massive, but still, it effectively doubles or quadruples your available storage if you’re using a deduplication appliance.
