I am the poster who was getting 3Gbps on an AQC107 10GB connection.
Turns out the problem was the crappy Amazon NIC inside the server, and it was the single bottleneck for everything.

Special shoutout to the retard who was so dumb he thought the problem was related to jumbo packet not being enabled.

same, i already administrate kubernetes at my job, i don't want my server to have anything to do with vms and containers.
It's so nice not to having to manage container dockerfiles, networking, volumes, devices, permissions, different libraries etc.
Docker and VMs have their uses, but i don't see a point in them in a personal home server.

from my room to the modem, it's about a 15-20m distance (factoring in taping the cable along the walls/skirting), and while I'm on 100mbit down (thanks nbn) I'd love something obviously more capable than that, while not spending more than I'd need to - what class of ethernet cable would suit this?
also, I'd love to split it so I get internet to my computer, then I can connect my storage box to the modem (over the same cable, if possible) or something so it serves my housemates too - is this what those little 4-port network switches are suitable for?

Power cable sticks out opposite side than the ethernet ones.

This does not spark joy.
>>
>>103014133
given that I don't know what a vlan is, I'll assume I don't need it.
any basic cheap switch should be fine as long as it has enough ports for my usage, correct? or would there be anything in particular (brands, features, etc.) that I should look out for or avoid?
I'm a novice, so for now I don't need anything advanced, but don't know what to look for.
thank you nonetheless

>>103014125

It's really not as complicated as you think.

Just get a simple unmanaged switch and connect things together.

nah pretty much any switch is fine, as long as it's gigabit (or more)

the cheapest switches (those tp link ones) are completely fine

In order to establish connection to a peer, at least one of them must be reachable directly.
If everyone went behind vpns without port forwarding, then no one could connect to each other, effectively killing the torrent

There are much, much better ways to do what (you) want.
You could, for example, buy a $5 domain and do a cloudflare secure tunnel.
You could also do a VPN to your network. Many people use Tailscale to do this.

You're good. What are you running? You need to

>Install Tailscale package on the server
>Sign up for Tailscale (it's free)
>Download a client onto an endpoint (the device you want to access the server on)
>Connect tot he Tailnet (your network with a new IP for your server) on your endpoint
You should then be able to type the IP Tailscale gives you into your browser URL bar, and hit your server's WebGUI.
>>
>>103018651
To add onto this, you also should publish routes. I have 192.168.1.26/24 published in my tailscale setup so I can hit everything on my server

1Gpbs from the ISP but having a little overhead for the future shouldn't hurt.

For bells and whistles I mean stuff like snort, suricata and IPS, IDS. The only port I have open is for wireguard and I likely won't have any LAN services exposed but I want to have the option in case I do.

I don't even have a managed switch right now but I plan to do most of the VLAN related tasks through that.

My SAS HBA came in today and solved all of my issues I was having with my disks. This has been a multi-week long ordeal and it was solved as soon as I turned the machine back on with the card in it.
The thing was plug and play and works great. I did make sure to tie a fan to the card since I was told they run hot.
Managed to resilver 3 drives and do a scrub and clear all the errors in just a couple of hours.
If you are having disk issues and you're using a SATA controller, consider switching to a SAS HBA in IT mode. There's a bonus because you can use them to interface with a backplane if you ever end up going that route.

you should only use suricata. for a full ruleset, everything turned on, i personally have 32GB of RAM and it's nearing maximum utilization. i use a 2700x as my CPU and it's pretty comfortable on 1gbps symmetric doing L7 inspection. i use a managed switch as well which handles the east/west. when utilizing your managed switch for inter-vlan routing your OPNsense will end up only doing its L7 traffic filtering north/south. but, you'd be taxing it already with the 1gbps link. any plans for FRR?

after years i personally ditched OPNsense so that i could run a more secure setup (multi-vrf environment with dynamic routing protocols, and a bunch of other crazy shit). had to carefully pick out quiet, full featured equipment though.

Look up flaresolverr. You might need it because there's a lot of public trackers that need cloudflare answers. They fail when you access them in an automated way because they need you to do the challenge.

Are you running everything in containers? I currently have my server running on Ubuntu 20.04 desktop version and I want to switch everything over to 24.p4 server version.
But, since I want to deploy more *arr services I'm not sure what direction to go.
Either move to Ubuntu 24.04 and run docker to manage everything or move to proxmox and use LXC containers.
I want it to be simple and robust, I don't want to fuck with things constantly and ideally I'd like things to auto update.
I run audiobooshelf through docker and I find it to be a pain in the arse. I hate having to manually update the container.
On the other hand, I run NextCloud via the snap and love it. Auto updates, simple to deploy, simple to set up and really easy to manage, roll back updates, etc.
If all services were available as snaps then I just use snaps

Don't get caught up on the "SXTAIGOOD" name you'll see on Amazon, that's just whatever company took it and pre-flashed it. Its actually a Supermicro board.
You also can't go wrong with LSI branded boards of various varieties. Just make sure whatever you get is in IT mode, otherwise you'll have to flash it yourself and that's kind of a pain in the ass.

layer 7 inspection uses a lot of resources. everyone who usually jaw jacks on here about using OPNsense isn't actually using it in any meaningful way. they just install it on a mini PC, put a simple layer 4 ACL on it, and call it a day.

here is a screencap of JUST THE UPSTREAM (non symmetric) of a speedtest on my 500mbps link. in stupid napkin math this is 1/4th of the potential load of a 1g symmetric link. this IPS is a 2700x with 32gb of ram running on bare debian. here you can see RAM utilization and core load as well as my rule count. note that this is with a simple speedtest too, not an actual diverse datastream which would be more strenuous on the CPU.

>>103022526
>Isn't it rather that you just need 72 connectors?
If we're talking SATA, yes.
>Then those can neck down to individual SFF connectors.
It's 6 SFF connectors per cage, each one needs it's own SFF connector on the computer => 3 racks * 6 SFF connectors each = 18 SFF connnectors
>Those cards can handle hundreds of drives at the same time.
Maybe I'm just being retarded, but I couldn't find any PCIe card with more than 4 SFF connectors per 16 lanes. => 18 SFF connectors / 4 SFF connectors per card = 4,5 * 16 lanes = 72 PCIe lanes.

I dicked around with OPNsense for hours to get PIA running properly and routing only some things through it. That fucked up all my port forwards for some inexplicable reason. I gave up on that and then dicked around with creating VPN killswich configs in an LXC for QBittorrent. Then I gave up on that, moved my stack to docker, just used Gluetun in the stack to run stuff through VPN and it just WERKS. Zero hassle.

This can also be the case on intel depending on hardware/software. TrueNAS wouldn't recognise my GPU until it had somthing plugged in. It's something unique to apple.
And the highest quality/speed encoders are still intel. ARC media engines and QSV are still intel's killer feature. That's why despite being objectively worse on paper that previous gen the new ultra CPUs are still selling en masse. QSV is just the best.

I want to completely move all my files off of my computer and build a solid NAS that me and my family can access from anywhere.

This is what I've come up with so far:

>Asus Prime X570 Pro mainboard (already sitting around here)
>128GB ECC RAM (4x 32GB Kingston KSM32ED8)
>2 x M.2 512GB or 1TB Samsung 980 Pro in RAID1

>X550-T2: PCIEX16_3 in 4x mode (X570)

Would this work or am I better off if I just bought one of these first gen Zen EPYCs instead: https://www.ebay.de/itm/356056716017

>I chose a 5750G/E over a 5700X because I want to be flexible with HDDs in the future.
Forgot to expand on that, flexible because I won't have to waste a PCIe slot on a GPU for transcoding media.

You want all that for a basic file server?
>>
>>103032777
>basic file server
Not that basic.
I want it to have fuckhueg amounts of storage space because I want to backup my fathers collection of VHS, DVDs and BluRays, scans all of my families 35mm reels, photo scans, document scans, and any media that my family owns on that thing.
I also shoot and edit a lot of photos and videos (am on >>>/p/).

There are apple everything die hards who already use old macbooks, mac minis, mac studios, etc. as home servers. These devices integrate with other apple devices very well obviously for backup and also for caching, and docker apparently works on them. The new mac mini is a good deal cheaper than most of their usual offerings at the base config at least and more powerful than the studio or their previous mac minis, and the IO isn't trash by Apple standards. And it should absolutely rip at hardware encoding. That was all I meant, I don't run apple anything myself.

Retard here, with a dumb question. Building a nas for the first time.
Here's the PCB that came with my case. The documentation is terrible.

I thought the molex would be for powering the drives, but what's the purpose of the extra sata power port?

From the looks of it you're supposed to use both?
https://nascompares.com/2024/10/04/jonsbo-n5-review/
That toothless fag just babbles about it like it's common knowledge, but doesn't mention if you actually need to plug in both.
Sorry Anon, I can't really help you with this.
>>
>>103033971
I appreciate your help regardless. Good to know I'm not fully retarded and the answer is not immediately obvious.
I too read that review and was frustrated by his lack of explanation.
>>
>>103033729
I think it's for tapping power for other sata devices. The site has a picture that says that port is "auxillary data power".
I wouldn't go plugging power into it or you may cause a short.
>>
>>103034040
Auxiliary sata power, rather

Not a Plex superfan but have only ever had one file ever that Plex has not successfully downloaded metadata for. Just one of literal thousands. And this includes all the stupid jeet chink shit xxxxbenthemen.ita.chinksbot x265 stupid naming on most torrents these days.

What agent are you using inside Plex?
>>
>>103035038
For the agent i use the default which is Plex Series, i probably should have experimented with others, but I just ended up downloading another release.
>>
>>103016186
Try moving the file out of your media directory entirely, scanning the library for changes, then moving it back. I've seen things act weird if there's bad data stuck in Plex's database for some reason, but otherwise never seen it completely fail to see a file unless the file itself is fucked somehow.
>>
>>103035066
You're not relying on the filenames from the release for plex to pick up, are you? Just let Sonarr rename that shit so it's how Plex likes it.
>>
>>103035081
Ya I am relying on that because I seed the files

>>103035072
Thanks ill try that next time i have issues

Oh wow nice. I've actually never used sonarr or radarr before but now im thinking i should.
>>
>>103035156
The initial setup can be a bit of a pain but once you've got it working, it saves a shit ton of effort over manually trying to set your shit up so that Plex is happy. Just use the trash guides for setting up quality profiles and shit.

NTA but what else do you plan to do with it besides storage? Any docker or VMs?
>>
>>103035417
Why do people insist on running VMs and whatnot on their NASes? Buy another server for that.
>>
>>103028142
It's related to the way NFS exposes dirs and file metadata (attributes, permissions).
>>
Speaking of barebone, what's the point of using truenas/unraid/etc instead of, say, debian and setting up a network share manually?
>>
>>103016500
it's 8-port and from a lame brand but here's one for $53

>>
>>103035699
it just seems very overspecced for only a NAS, that's probably why Anon was asking if it's gonna be used for anything else
>>
>>103033729
why even bother with this? just get an HBA.

>>103036291
not having to set up storage pools and network shares manually

for critical data (family heirlooms, etc) I would suggest not just rolling your own. Make sure you have copies/backups of things if you do want to do that. The extra $$$ for something like a synology gets you some peace of mind.
that's not to say you can't make a bulletproof unraid/truenas/omv server, there are just more opportunities to fuck it up
