Have any of you nerds gotten your houses rewired for optical 10/25G? We have 1g ethernet and large media imports are slow and annoying. Also if I could edit straight on the NAS that'd be ace

Also if I could edit straight on the NAS that'd be ace if you're using hdds you won't really see a benefit from going from 1 to 10/25. 10 would let you in theory get maximum throughput with sata ssds, which tends to cap out at around 4 Gb/s. m.2s could in theory saturate a 25 Gb/s connection, but in practice you're unlike to ever see anywhere close to maximum speed on them unless you're doing disk cloning in my experience. editing video files/large files is always going to suck over a network because you need really fast read/write times for small random blocks, which storage isn't that great at. you need ram for that

needs lots of SSD and RAM? lol i think my new NAS could do it

problem is that it doesn't matter how fast your network is, it will never be fast enough to keep up with ram. You would need a network capable of ~350 Gb/s to do so with ns latency the speed of light is ~0.3 m/ns, so you're already sunk if the cable is more than around 8 or 9 m long, and that's not taking in to account the rest of the signal pathway and processing time required

A single drive pushing sequential IO can already saturate 1GBE, I know what I want. yeah i mean if you're already saturating it then go for it. a guy at work has his house fully wired with fiber and loves it

the main problem with running really fast ethernet networks at home is that you're usually just a single user and traditional file sharing protocols and tcp/ip don't really scale well unless you are doing lots of things in parallel the industry has come up with stuff like RoCE where the network adapters and switches handle the ugly details of getting a chunk of memory from one host copied into a chunk of memory on another host but you have to really research what hardware you get to actually make it work if your file server is full of nvme drives and 100gb ethernet it's pretty much a requirement to avoid a huge cpu bottleneck trying to deal with a bajillion tcp/ip packets per second i think for 10gb ethernet you'll probably be able to get full performance just from using SMB3 multichannel r u ready to WALK fucked around with this message at 15:06 on Oct 22, 2021 |

yeah its not just line speed either. you need to go to big MTUs and poo poo yadda yadda (we use 9000 byte MTU inside our racks at work), tune things to hell and back put it this way Woolwich Bagnet posted:because you need really fast read/write times for small random blocks when i first set up my nas i didnt have the cache drives and a time machine backup from my laptop took like 45 minutes even though it wasnt even nearly tickling gigabit. after i added two $29 cache SSDs for dem iops, it dropped to like 6 mins. IMO DAS is the way to go for poo poo like that

oh yeah even cheap trashy 256g m2 drives in the cache drive slots on the 4-bay syno's are night and day. must have imo. i also upped the ram from 4 to 12 with a generic sodimm, plenty o room now

lol see the pvc piping? it’s gonna hang some fabric, essentially a curtain, so outsiders don’t see much. maybe this will end up looking too imposing. or maybe i’ll only do the front and not the sides. dunno yet. I still sound like garbage but focusing on things i can change instead

that won't work because the curtains will be too heavy and it'll pivot down. you've made a long lever.

it would work for only doing the front then lol

just make sure its a cloudy day so god wont be able to see what you're going to do

simply drill holes in the bottom of the pvc and use a fog machine to create a smoke curtain

cut and glue (dear god i hope you're gluing this) two t-fittings into the pipe where the boards are. then buy two flat mount flanges and screw those to the boards facing up. finish with two short pieces to connect the t fittings to the flanges. (don't glue these!) done

(don't glue these!) this would work as would other ideas.. but it’s also gotta be portable, as in fit in the boot of my car along with everything else. i’ve decided either way to just go for the front curtain only anyway. man tho I’ve made some decent sounds. It’s gon be fun

You could drill a hole in the pipe/mounts/bends at the points where it can pivot down, so you can then just drop a bolt in to jam it.

today's istp: migrated my nas <-> linux box connection from samba shares (yuck) to nfs (yuck, but at least a reliable thing!) i also threw an old 250gb sata disk in the linux box to add as a nfs read cache. seems to be working pretty well
