Can someone tell me what this is? South Louisiana is confused

It appears This is the card that will work for you. It seems the card you have won't even take a custom flash for HBA mode

What is the MB you are using ?? It could be me but I always try and use a SAS card vs on board headers for any thing data related

That has been the case for a few of us, Ive changed hardware twice now and it jumped off without a hitch

That's definitely solid

Ya know the cool thing about home labs today is you don't need all the enterprise grade hardware as it use to seem. A few SFF systems pull a premium while maximizing space and power usage. I remember when we have 4 2u servers stacked in a closet

i added the following folders, Music , Shows and movies. then moved the files into thoes folders

lol nah I dont have that much gear, all the good stuff is things at the office

funny as you say this I am currently doing some network cleanup and adding new wires for new toys

how you think i get my gains? I dead lift loaded 4u's for fun lol

Wanna make it funnier? Just know im 6'4 280lb kmsl

Hold on , got to have my school girl that just won some KPOP tickets moment. Thanks @jonp for taking the dive and for everyone else that is making this a awesome community. I am along for the ride to see where HexOS take us during the road to Alpha.

For that I'm using a distro called Urbackup. It find on my server and pushes the backups to the hexos. Urbackup does an entire backup of a drive for my main systems plus their storage drives

So the 2 ways I use my nas are using Tailscale for creating a VPN and allowing me to login to the nas or keep shared folders synced to my computers. As far as sharing photos ect I am using immich paired with cloudflair " using one of my domains" and share that access out that way

So a bit if a update, I have been fighting this all week, I isolates the dead drive in truenas , stopped and outted the drive . allowed the system to resilver then put in a new drive to make a hot spare and everything was running smooth. The next day is when all the goofy stuff was going on with the deck so I cam home and started making back ups for truenas ect. went to bed and everything was working well. While at work the following day I started getting notifications from Up time robot telling me that the links going to my hexos was down . Logged into the deck and server not online. After some trouble shooting I had found that I no longer had tailscale access nor could i ping it from any internal computer. Got home and got into the truenas interface and rebooted the server. Once I gained UI access it showed it was trying to resilver the pool again, not thinking about I let it ride out. Well it was stuck at 18% silvering for 2 days so I started to try and delete the array and start over "just move all my data back." AND now I am at a point where im just going to rebuild the OS and all because the only access that I have is Truenas interface

So the stand offs I have used in the past are These , As far as front panel connections go you may have to make the adapter if there is not one made. Put it all together and it should fit in that case

Isn't that the point of HexOs ? Add drives and let the os create pools for you, so where the people that dont understand Truenas should be able to create a Nas without the need to learn the baseline OS ?

@Dylan I just have to work with ALOT of them . So in theory yes this motherboard can be put into a normal case, A few things you will have to keep in mind is there will be some needs for modifications. As in the pin headers for power on , also they make all the adapter cables to use a normal power supply. For mounting into another case it will you should get some of the motherboard standoffs to fit, as for the other mounting locations that dont fit you can make new holes or go the safer route and get the plastic motherboard standoffs " usually cheap" . If you have any questions Im glad to lend a helping hand

Yeah its simple but once you get into clusters and Vm management inside of that cluster it gets fun

I plan to order a HDHomeRun FLEX 4K to run with my setup, I just have to many irons in the fire to wanna pull the trigger to get one ATM

Thats in IDrac ? You might have to boot into the controller and make sure each drive is set to non raid.. If that option is not there you might be looking at needing to see if there is a firmware flash or the need of a new controller that will allow IT mode

Do you have each drive set to non-raid in the controller?

What perc card is it running?

Look at the guide THAT IS HERE

lol bad clipboard'n on my part it should be fixed now THIS LINK WORKS
