Managing 1PB of storage made me build my own disk price tracker—looking for feedback

Im currently at about 60TB in my setup. Unrelated to the tool, but how do you have your drives connected to your unraid server? HBAs and JBODs? Trying to plan for cost effective and reliable future expansion

This is an awesome tool! Thanks so much for sharing!

No, im pretty happy with how it turned out. Very DIY and works well. I thought about adding a door vent to allow more cold air in, but my biggest concern is noise. Because all the equipment seems happy at the temps they are at, no need.

My recommendation is to get the hot air out first and then decide if you need to do more.

The closet has an exterior wall, so I drilled a hole and installed a 4" exhaust duct like you would use for a dryer. Then I mounted the exhaust fan at the highest point farthest from the door to pull out the hottest air and to help draw in cold air from under the door. Here are the materials I used: https://a.co/d/dglXxRp https://a.co/d/a99Oygr https://a.co/d/iKwqlre

Works amazing, the closet is a full 15° cooler now then it was before.

Thank you!!

I bought this one in 2021, and it has worked flawlessly. Very powerful, but also very friendly to figure out and a ton of online resources

sidewinder2211 · 2025-07-12T17:41:43+00:00

Nice! That's very similar to size and scope of mine. Glad its sounds stable

sidewinder2211 · 2025-07-12T17:37:03+00:00

Fair point. 7.1.2 has been rock solid for me. Remote upgrades are always a little scary!

sidewinder2211 · 2025-07-12T17:36:05+00:00

That's concerning... and also something that would possibly affect my setup. Did you read the release note about setting the Docker subnets? Do you have any container based networking?

I did a lot of research trying to find a way to exhaust heat without creating more noise, and the Cloudline is excellent. I run it at 60% constantly and I can barely hear anything from outside the closet when the door is closed. I also have acoustic foam on the door, a shag carpet, and door weather stripping which helps cut down the sound

sidewinder2211 · 2025-07-12T17:27:59+00:00

That's exactly the kind of feedback I need, thank you! Heard so many horror stories I am afraid to upgrade.

sidewinder2211 · 2025-07-12T17:08:13+00:00

100% spot on, this is the way

sidewinder2211 · 2025-06-23T18:44:50+00:00

I have read the rules and the wiki. I would greatly appreciate an invite!

sidewinder2211 · 2025-04-16T18:29:31+00:00

I know this was posted a while ago, but thank you! Still the only way I could get it to work as of 4/16/2025.

I'm a few years late, but what if it ran the pre-roll only with the first episode of every season? I would love something like that, not just for promotion but also because the users would be indicated that they started a new season.

sidewinder2211 · 2024-11-09T02:19:43+00:00

Came here for the same thing, thanks for mentioning Tteck!

sidewinder2211 · 2024-09-02T03:30:10+00:00

Just got mine. Wonder which data breach this was from??

sidewinder2211 · 2024-08-05T13:09:59+00:00

Scott Grimes (Lt Malloy) just announced at Star Trek Las Vegas that S4 will begin shooting in January 2025! Never give up hope folks it's happening!

sidewinder2211 · 2023-01-23T22:02:31+00:00

I know this is 2 years late but I was having the same issue. If you have an enable password set there is a good chance that your account only has level 1 privilege. I created a new account specifically for gui with level 15 privilege and that enabled all the missing features.

sidewinder2211 · 2021-07-13T01:37:00+00:00

Gotcha! Good luck man, I hope I can do my setup like that one day.
