Yeah, I had errors like that when my WD30EFRX drives would apparently poo poo the whole SAS bus when under load. Nothing in SMART, cleared upon a reboot / rescrub, etc.

Migrating from a DS1019+ to an RS2418+ could not have been easier. Just move the drives, it asks if I want to migrate. 5 minutes later it’s up with all users, settings, ssh keys, data, intact. All I had to do was recreate the eth bond to include the 2 extra interfaces. Seriously impressed.

Managed to find two easystores at Best Buy (now with a max purchase limit of 1 per person??). Both turned out to be whitelabel air filled, bit disappointed.

So, I have an RS815 with 8TB disks in RAID 5 (which because of the volume size limits of the RS815, actually only gives me the capacity of two of those disks). I am looking to upgrade to either a RS1221+ or a DS1821+ (depending on whether I want to pay a $350 premium for rackmount and *checks notes* fewer features  ).I want to expand out my array to 8x 8 TB in RAID 6 or SHR2. In anticipation of doing this, I purchased 4 of the 8TB easystores on sale and will shuck them for the 4 extra drives. Because my existing volume is in RAID 5, and on an older filesystem (I want to move to BTRFS) - is my best way to make this transition: 1) Bring up the new NAS with the 4 new drives in it, build out a RAID 6 BTRFS volume, and copy all my data over from the RS815 (which will be fine from a space standpoint because I am limited to two drives of capacity currently in the RS815). 2) Once all my data is copied over, pull a drive out of the old RS815 one at a time, put it in the new NAS, and expand the array, until all disks are transitioned? Also, as a more specific topic, I use the synology cloudsync to backup the data I truly care about (~1TB) to a B2 bucket. Do I have any hope of transitioning that seamlessly to the new NAS without doing a full re-upload? It wouldn't be the end of the world if I had to, but it would use almost a month of data cap to do so (Comcast ). It would be great if, assuming the file structure on the new NAS is identical (it would be), I can just point it to the same B2 bucket and it would realize everything is identical. Or will it see everything as a new 'version' of the existing files, and want to upload the new copies?

For any QNAP users (like me), here's a fun one: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=26986272 Basically - someone named Walter Shao at QNAP hard coded walter:walter in a bunch of places in the backup software (HybridBackup). An article with links to CVE's: https://www.helpnetsecurity.com/2021/04/26/qnap-nas-ransomware/ I wasn't affected, but I also don't expose mine to the internet directly.

Crunchy Black posted:gently caress's sake we have like 100+ older QNAPs in prod I mean it’s bad, don’t get me wrong. But it’s not like this is the first major bug of its kind in this kind of software. It just underscores the importance of not directly exposing a device that wasn’t explicitly designed to sit on the public internet. Near as I can tell, the people getting owned had theirs exposed somehow, whether directly or via UPnP.

Another thing I have seen is that a computer on the network was compromised and then sent out scripts that exposed the NAS to the internet after. Might be a good idea to lock down your network and do a virus check on all those computers that are a bit questionable *cough*kids*coughs*.

That implies that the device has a public IP and just happens to have been configured to not expose common services. I’d say the only safe way to have an appliance like that, QNAP or not, is private routing only. If you need access off network, setup a VPN.

Routers come with some pretty bizarre defaults (UPnP for example) that allow for this sort of thing. I know that xbox and playstation or whatever require it to host games, but they shouldn't, they should broker games remotely especially if you have to pay  to play online. Router manufacturers should start clamping down on this, especially with ip6 becoming a default option any decade now. Or ISPs should set a deadline on "no open ports for residential internet" and enforce it. Make people pay extra to open a port, it will make the internet safer.

That’s why I brought up UPnP I my previous post. Either way - UPnP is a Bad Thing (tm). I discovered my old router had UPnP when my QNAP told me there were a bunch of failed authentications. I was irate at both QNAP and the router manufacturer for doing UPnP at all.

NAT != firewall and ports still need to be "opened" with IPv6 for peer to peer traffic to work. The ability to open ports is critical to the end-to-end and peer-to-peer nature of the internet and definitely should not be gated behind a more expensive business subscription. Don't encourage greedy ISPs.

"Synology NAS servers DS107, DS116, and DS213, use default credentials." That is over 10 year old except for the DS116 which is only 6 "Firmware versions prior to 5.2-5644-1" That firmware is all over 10 years old, for the 3.1 and the 5.2 is from (2015-05-12) So yeah, they did back in the day. Looks like they patched out the version too in like a week or so. Not saying they are perfect but it appears they learned that lesson.

Statutory Ape posted:Hi, I am trying to find a PCIE SATA controller. I would like +4 ports. It is for non-commercial purposes etc The short answer is the go-to is the IBM M1015 and you flash the firmware to "IT mode"/"JBOD mode" (which means it works as a normal controller instead of doing onboard RAID). It's an 8-port internal card and is widely used in the homelab market. The Dell H2xx / H3xx are good too but I don't know that specific lineup, they probably use LSI chipsets (a brand) just like the IBM and as long as they can be flashed to IT mode / JBOD mode they're fine. In general you have a choice between "consumer" SATA controllers and "enterprise" SAS controllers. You can always put SATA devices on SAS hardware but not the other way around. In general LSI chipsets dominate the enterprise market so LSI is generally the best supported across all platforms, they will Just Work. There are some other "second-tier" brands like Marvell that will generally work, and some random ones that who knows, but LSI is the standard and it basically doesn't cost any more to get one of those. The big differentiation is going to be the PCIe connectivity and the cabling standard. PCIe 3.0 can run better on a second or third slot than a 2.0 device (and obviously fall back seamlessly to 2.0 or 1.0 if that's all your computer supports). But, if you're not hammering all your disks at once, you're not going to max it out anyway, 2.0x4 is still 250 MB/s which is basically 2 spinning disks at full throughput. Also, most cards will have a cable that connects four hard drives at once, it'll probably be either Mini-SAS (SFF-8087) or Mini-SAS HD (SFF-8643). You can get an "octopus" cable that break it out to 4 standard SATA connectors, but you need to know which you have (and cables are not cheap, that's the one downside, you can probably expect to pay $20-50 for a cable). Also, some cards have external connectors (for connecting disk shelves), some have internal, and some have some of each, so obviously look at what you're buying vs what you want. I wonder how bad things have gotten with the new crypto that uses storage space though, that may have tightened up the market for storage controllers and disks quite a bit.

H310 is LSI and easily flashable to IT mode as its popular, so there is a ton of easy to use guides. I use 2x SAS> 4x SATA breakouts and they work really well. They get hot, so re-pasting and buying a little 20mm fan is helpful. You just wedge screws into the passive heat sink.  I have mine vertical on a riser so it doesn’t choke airflow to my GPU. H210 vs H310 is just port orientation. IIRC back edge of card vs the side. Pilfered Pallbearers fucked around with this message at 22:07 on Apr 30, 2021 |

The mounting looks good. I shoved a E3-1275 into my gen 8 hp microserver a few years back. Ended up attaching a 40mm fan to the passive heatsink via zip ties through the fins. Holds well and cools it enough, but looks like poo poo. I actually am tearing it down, I'll try and snap a picture of it.

Zipties can work really well. This GTX560 served me years like this. I had forgotten I also used those screws to position it a bit up from the heatsink.

Hm is there a way to poll the temp of your LSI from the console, specifically FreeNAS? I'm pretty sure I'm sitting with the default passive heatsink on mine, but it is the only card in there so it has a fair bit of room around it, and when I put my 2nd pool of drives I ordered another set of case fans for all of the optional mounts so there's like 6 in there now, airflow ~should~ be pretty good all around.

Can anyone link me to an enclosure or IDE to USB adaptor that would successfully plug this exact model of IDE drive to my PC (running Linux but I suppose that wouldn't matter)? I salvaged the drive from my broken DAP and my 2.5"/3.5" IDE to USB 3.0 converter doesn't fit, the connectors are female on both HDD and adaptor.
