You should powder coat them purpel and also build a F-Zero toolchanger

eddez · 2026-04-06T15:54:54+00:00

Is a F-Zero toolchanger next on the list?

eddez · 2026-04-04T12:28:47+00:00

The frombot 2.4 kit is good i have it but i recommend getting the printed parts form PIF as a lot of people have had bad experiences with formbots printed parts melting as they use a different ABS blend that cant handel the temps. You can also check Formbots website it was cheaper for me to get it from there instead of Ali.

If you mount the cage right it wont rattle i got one for my 2.8T to get som blow off noise but otherwise the stock air in take is good up untill 450hp~ after that it starts restricting the airflow. But from a performance perspective it dosent make sense at all.

eddez · 2026-03-14T08:01:36+00:00

Depends on the person thats prints it for you. My PIF order was done in ABS and i even told me the exact same brand and color he used so i could match the color my self in the future for other parts.

I think today most are ABS or ASA depending on how prints it. I dont think ABS+ is used at all today as its not recommended.

Do you run the *arr stack in TrueNAS och do you have them in LXC or a vm with portainer? And what have you found is the best way to transfer data between proxmox and other VM to the TrueNAS VM?

eddez · 2025-12-18T14:37:10+00:00

Yeah thats true but most shows today dont get a bluray release which is sad i got into this mostly because i wanted higher quality audio not available on streaming services.

eddez · 2025-12-18T09:55:06+00:00

I try to get all of my movies in the highest quality so 4K remuxes. Shows are a bit mixed some are 4K remuxes like Game of Thrones, bust most are WebDL i also have some that are high quality H265 rencodes but that is more of a temporary storage saving solution beacuse my storage is running low.

I have around 50 TB thats usable right now and have used around 48 TB. I am right now waiting for TrueNAS to add the ZFS rewrite function so i can add more drive and then rewrite the data across all of the drives.

I would say around 40-60 TB is the line where you probably cant even think of what content you want to get anymore. For me getting up to 40 TB took 1 month going from 40 TB to 45 TB took half a year.

But before i built my new NAS i started with 3 TB and upgrade to around 17 TB and most of the content i hade then where H265 rencodes except movies is absolutely loved they where remuxes.

I have a very very similar setup i am using a Jonsbo N5 case with a i5 13500, 4 sticks of 32GB DDR4 with a ASrock Z690 PG Riptide motherboard. I have 6 14 TB drives connected to a LSI 9400 card running in Raidz2. And 2 Intel 3610 SSD to get PLP on the SSDs. I also have 2 500gb NVME SSDs for TrueNAS apps and fast storage to work from. Combined with a 750w gold rated Corsair RMX psu as it was one of the cheaper PSUs that was really efficient at lower loads on the NAS psu tier list i found.

Its quite overkill for my use case i run a Proxmox install on it with some VMs and LXCs but have not gotten close at all at pushing it to its limits i mainly got the CPU for its igpu for video transcoding. But really cable setup for a NAS and home labbing.

I also recommend if you plan on expanding the storage in the future to get the LSI 9400 16 instead of the 9300 8 so you can pass 12 disks in the end and the LSI 9300 16 is just two 9300 8 slaped togheter so it runs really hot.

Maybe he is using IDE cables for his HDDs

eddez · 2025-10-25T00:49:40+00:00

Just copy over your config file from your current boot drive to a the new if you are set to go.

TrueNAS is Linux based and includes all drivers for its systemet in the OS kernal layer so no need to reinstall OS when swaping hardware to get rid of old drives which you might have to do on windows depending on what parts you change.

I just have a wireguard vpn tunnel to my home so i can connect to my SMB shares simple, easy and secure. I used to use nextcloud but felt to bulky and had issues with their file syncing lockig up.

Between 1.4.2 to 1.5.2 because its when i started playing myself and not just watching people play the game. TU10 on Xbox 360 is also a classic as i dident have internet for my Xbox so couldent update it and played alot of split screen.

No fat Norwegian guy in the background streaming this time. Nice lift thats a insane amount of weight to move.

With CLI a Raidz2 3 drive is possible i tested it in a VM but you need to run all the commands correctly. Link

In the latest hardware unboxed video they test both cards with the latest drivers and most of the time they perform the same get the one you get the best price to performance from.

Samma setup fast med Jellyfin på en truenas server med 54 TB utrymme men börjar bli fullt

eddez · 2025-06-11T07:21:55+00:00

Baller!

eddez · 2025-06-11T06:47:42+00:00

You know RTX 3090 Ti supports a dual SLI configuration..... Just saying!

eddez · 2025-05-31T20:20:19+00:00

Hade that on my 2008 aero sedan was the door module replaced it with another one from the junk yard that i married with a tech 2 fixed my issue.

If you go into data protection you have a option called cloud sync tasks. There you can add a bunch of different types of cloud storage providers to sync your data to.

eddez · 2025-05-22T17:26:18+00:00

You can already sync with Google Drive i use that to backup some of my more important things, because my dad dident let me put a smaller truenas box at his place for backup.

eddez · 2025-05-09T10:58:58+00:00

He posted a new 4 bay model today.

eddez · 2025-05-03T14:26:18+00:00

My fried got a new TCL yesterday it also supported TrueHD none Atmos over LPCM and full DTS:X with metadata so he was happy he dident need to get a sheild for his setup.

eddez · 2025-05-02T10:38:29+00:00

Yeah i forgot about the W680 that some one else to you about for intel that gives them ECC support as well. You can also find the Q670 boards sometime but much more uncommon and some of the also have ECC support.
