#nas #asustor #massstorage
I went all out on a #selfhosting setup (again). I decided to host a few (more) things that I had wanted for some time. This instance is one of them.
Over the years, I've used a #Synology #NAS (awful, very limited software). Then I built a #diyNAS with a Celeron CPU and Mini-ITX board, but it was a bit too big for my nomadic lifestyle, so I sold it for parts before my second move.
I was stuck with an #Asustor NAS for some time, which was good for storage. Especially since it was easy to run on a custom OS — #OpenMediaVault, in my case. But it wasn't powerful enough to run everything I wanted. And that's not including things like #GoToSocial. Admittedly, I'm also running surveillance software.
I've eventually settled on an AMD #Ryzen #miniPC with NVMe and SATA storage. The SATA disk is limited to a height of 7 mm, which also limits it to 2 TB. The NVMe is also limited to 2TB, because of the price =)
Additionally, I have a USB 3.0 external hard drive for 'cold storage'. It's also 2TB. So, with 6TB of #storage, I have more than enough for my self-hosting needs. This includes my current media library, although it may become a bottleneck in the near future as I'm leaving #Spotify.
The purpose of this instance is to post about #selfhosted software and, on occasion, a little about #softwaredevelopment (though I always struggle to find something to write about on this subject, probably because it is my job) without being constrained to 500 characters on #Mastodon or running a full-featured Mastodon instance.
#introduction
RAID1 in der Praxis: Neue Festplatte kam eben mit DHL. Im Betrieb vom Asustor AS6202T die alte Festplatte rausgezogen, die neue Festplatte reingeschoben. Jetzt werden rund 3 TB von der zweiten alten HDD auf die neue synchronisiert. Morgen dasselbe Spielchen mit der zweiten neuen HDD.
Passer d’un NAS Synology à Asustor
Cet article va être un peu (pas mal) technique, mais je pense qu’il peut potentiellement intéresser n’importe qui d’un peu geek. Déjà parce qu’aujourd’hui, nous avons tous une vie numérique, avec énormément de données nous concernant. Il y en a qu’on ne peut pas contrôler parce qu’elles sont traîtées par les applications qu’on utilise et ne servent qu’à ça, mais il y en a d’autres, des photos, des vidéos, des souvenirs, des documents, des projets abandonnés ou concrétisés, bref, tout ce qui fait de nous quelqu’un qui a existé. C’est important de stocker tout ça quelque part. Beaucoup se tournent vers les services de stockage en ligne comme OneDrive, Dropbox ou Google Drive pour leur côté en ligne, mais on est jamais à l’abri d’un compte désactivé ou un changement de contrat d’utilisation qui fout en l’air toute notre stratégie (sans parler du piratage de compte.)
Et puis il y a toutes ces choses qui ne nous appartiennent pas mais qui restent néanmoins des souvenirs que l’on veut voir perdurer. Des installations de vieux jeux introuvables aujourd’hui, des projets de fans qui ont disparu de la surface du net, etc.
Comment garder tout ça au frais par ses propres moyens ?
Cet article ne va pas répondre exactement à cette question, mais voir comment je m’y suis pris à l’époque et comment je m’y prends maintenant, notamment avec mon passage de Synology à Asustor pour le NAS.

It's odd to me that every time I update Portainer running on my Asustor NAS, the node_exporter container serving statistics to Prometheus has to be restarted because it comes up in a stopped state.
I just know I have to do this every time...so that's fun.
I have the restart policy set to "Unless Stopped" which I thought was correct, maybe it isn't.
Finally got a chance to document something that was hard and may help an entire two people 🙂 Enjoy.

Test de l'Asustor Flashstor 12 Gen2 : le NAS « full SSD » qui bat des records http://dlvr.it/TKthF1 #Asustor #NAS
@arstechnica I recommend #asustor nas. Asustor not only allow whatever drives you prefer, but also allow you flash a different OS from the one they provide(and recommend). Something that #synology has already rendered virtualy impossible to do
#asustor is non-usa, non-chinese but from #taiwan btw. Also something one may want to take into account these days.
I have #nextcloud running on #debian on #asustor and it flies.
Anyone familiar with NAS and RAID backup devices, specifically from #Asustor? I’m curious about this one, specifically for Windows + Mac backup but apparently it can also do game streaming?

Like, there is basically a low end PC in this thing, and it sounds like it can stream my PC gameplay to one or more services like #Twitch, etc. Am I reading this right?
Asustor Flashstor Gen2 NAS: Wechsel von Celeron zu Ryzen mit USB4, ECC-RAM & 2Ă—10 GbE https://www.computerbase.de/news/storage/asustor-flashstor-gen2-nas-wechsel-von-celeron-zu-ryzen-mit-usb4-ecc-ram-und-2x-10-gbe.90459/ #Asustor #Ryzen #NAS
Asustor Flashstor Gen2 is an SSD-only NAS with 10 GbE LAN and an AMD Zen 3 processor
For years, most network-attached storage (NAS) devices were basically purpose-built computers designed to let you hook a large hard drive (or array of multiple drives) to your network to function as a media and file server, backup solution, and more.
But these days you can find a growing number of NAS systems that don’t support hard drives at all, because they’re designed for flash storage only. Asustor’s Flashstor series of SSD-only systems were among the first consumer-oriented NAS devices in this emerging space, and now the company has launched the new Asustor Flashstor Gen2 series that brings a significant boost in CPU performance, networking capabilities, and memory capacity.
While the original Asus Flashstor family featured 10-watt quad-core Intel Celeron N5105 “Jasper Lake” processors and support for up to a total of 16GB of DDR4-2933 RAM, the new Asustor Flashstor Gen 2 series is powered by 15-watt AMD’s Ryzen Embedded V3C14 processor and supports up to 64GB of LPDDR5-4800 memory.
AMD’s Ryzen V3C14 is a 4-core, 8-thread processor with three AMD Zen 3 CPU cores featuring a 2.3 GHz base frequency and support for boost speeds up to 3.8 GHz. Designed for embedded devices, it may not feature the latest AMD technologies, but it should deliver a big performance boost over the budget Intel Celeron chips used in the previous-generation. AMD also plans to continue offering this processor through at least 2032, which means that it should be a well supported processor for years to come.
Asustor has also updated the USB capabilities of the new models: instead of two USB 3.2 Gen 2 (10 Gbps) ports and two USB 2.0 (480Mbps) ports, the new models have two USB4 Type-C (40 Gbps) ports and three USB 3.2 Gen 2 ports. The company ommitted HDMI and S/PDIF ports though, presumably because the USB4 ports can be used for video output.
The Asustor Flashstor Gen 2 comes in two flavors: the Flashstor 6 Gen 2 features 6 M.2 2280 slots for PCIe Gen 4 storage and a single 10 Gb Ethernet port. It ships with 8GB of non-ECC RAM, but supports up to 64GB of ECC memory. This model is available now for $999.
The Asustor Flashstor 12 Gen 2 is a pricier model that sells for $1399. But it supports up to twelve SSDs (with a mix of PCIe 4.0 and PCIe 3.0 slots), has two 10 Gb Ethernet ports, and ships standard with 16GB of ECC memory.
Both systems measure 309 x 193 x 48mm, but the 12-bay model is a little heavier at 1.45 kg (3.19 pounds), while the 6-bay version is 1.4 kg (3.08 pounds). Power consumption is also lower on the 6-bay version: it uses as little as 1.2 watts in sleep mode or 17.9 watts during operation, compared with 2.8W sleep and 32.2W active user for the Flashstor 12 Gen 2.

Finaly, my trusty 12 year old #HP ProLiant MicroServer has been retired. It has served my #nextcloud needs for the family (which has extended quite a bit over the years).
Its successor is already sitting next to it. It is a taiwanese #Asustor Gen2 AS5402T. One of the few NAS makers that supports running native #linux (its own os is also a linux spin, but I wanted a headless server OS)
Both cost about the same (if memory serves): about 400 euro. Lets see if the Asustor will also go to 10 years
