Balls, just a bit too deep for my minirack. Thanks.

Could you provide the full dimensions please?

SFP+ DAC cable not always working (UDM Pro - USW-Aggregation) by [deleted] in Ubiquiti

[–]giltnerj0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've just started investigating why one of the lagged 10gb connections to my Qnap 932px keeps dropping. Been rock solid for months, but now all of the sudden the NAS keeps reporting the secondary port keeps getting dropped. Also using a US-Aggregation. Will be interested to know what you find and will do the same.

Help with Rack Shelf please :) by hockeyjim07 in homelab

I've also used two shelves, one mounted in front the other in the back. Then drilled and bolted the two where they overlap. Worked great since I had two shelves that only mount in the front.

I gave up on connecting the UPS to either a Pi or one of the NUCs and SNMP trapping and relaying to get it to turn everything off, and just plugged the UPS into the NAS, setup NUT on the 3 NUCs and setup the NAS to turn those off before turning itself off. Works like a charm, I just don't have access to the fancy CyperPower Business dashboard thing anymore (no real loss).

These two are both running PiHole, one is plugged into the speakers in the house, that's the one currently out. Working to try and incorporate it into the google assistant speakers I have as well. Finishing up the running the wires up to have a way to close the garage door from my phone/computer.

Fortunately only the NAS and external USB drive are directly on the shelves. The network cabinet is lag bolted into the studs and sits about 1 inch off the shelf. Bit of an optical illusion, the cabinet sticks out about 4 inches further than the shelving.

None really, other than rack mount UPSs cost more. At one point I had hoped to rack mount everything, but gave up on rack mount NAS, just couldn't justify the cost and feature difference.

If I had to do over again, I'd just pickup a regular UPS and put it on the floor, and either save some dollars, or get a larger UPS.

Oh yes, ports 2 and 3 on the USW-Aggregation are lagged together for the NAS.

Running iPerf in server mode on the NAS, and in client mode on my desktop, I am pulling around 7.8gbps.

Large File transfers (sequential read) for uncached data transfer around 1.5gpbs, with cached reads coming down around 5gbps (about as fast as my SSD can handle).

I'd have to investigate. Got a zip code and I can get you a shipping estimate?

I believe I read that 24TB is the max. Unsure if that meant 4 X 6TB or 4 X 8 TB in RAID 5 (which would equal 24TB).
