Built when Netflix first took away password sharing. Thanks for the heads up Netflix! Would not want to start this project now ๐Ÿ˜‚

Edit: adding temp and specs

Drives are 10x 14 tb wdd in raidz1, 6 256gb sata ssds in a pair of 3 wide mirrors for special vdev metadata, a 512gb nvme for read cache, and a 64gb optane for slog

For those worried about temps. The cpu never goes past the 80s when being ran hard, and drive temps are comfortably in the 40s

Oh, and if anyone is curious on specs. This is my old gaming rig but it's: I9 11900k Z590I Vision D ITX mobo 64gb memory The 16x lane is bifurcated to run: Intel a310 & Lsi 9305 16e into a hp dl380

You left in your IP no0b! Now I'm gonna pwn your server with my super hacker skillz xoxoxoxo

P.S. That's is one hell of a setup! I am surprised how well ventilated it is

I just sent a ddos attack to his ip. In an unrelated event my doorbell camera has stopped working?

[โ€“] tuhriel@discuss.tchncs.de 9 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Means you got the wrong ip...the correct one is 127.0.0.1

[โ€“] Hamknight@lemmy.world 4 points 3 weeks ago

127.0.0.1 sweet 127.0.0.1

A little bit of airflow can make a huge difference. If it works it works. I think the doubters have just never experimented.

Super quiet, and had been running non stop for over a year no with no problems ๐Ÿ˜Š also that i9 runs super hot. When it was in my lil gaming rig it was always running up near 90. So retiring to the server had been much more gentle on it, lol

[โ€“] abcdqfr@lemmy.world 3 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Always in 90s? Did you remember the thermal paste on reinstall? Lol

[โ€“] Hamknight@lemmy.world 5 points 3 weeks ago

It just had a very undersized cooler at the time (pics of case are hiding here somewhere lol). It would idle normally, but load put it near throttle. Moved to the 9800x3d though in the same case and that performs like a dream

[โ€“] SCmSTR@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

And it isn't thermally throttling? If not, that's awesome. Have you ever taken a sound meter with a spectrum analyzer and seen if there's any frequencies you can try to kill?

[โ€“] Hamknight@lemmy.world 2 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

With the big tower cooler it now has in the server it barely touches 80c under load. As for sound, I can take a recording when I get home later this week if anyone's are still interested

[โ€“] SCmSTR@lemmy.blahaj.zone 4 points 3 weeks ago

The reason I bring that up, is I have a little knowledge in acoustics and just wondered if your pc was putting out more lower frequency noise than that wood is realistically able to absorb. So, not personally interested, as all projects like this are case by case (ha, no pun intended), and moreso just if you wanted to fiddle with it more, like adding a piece of slate or sheet of rubber to the exterior or something.

I'm CURIOUS what it sounds like, but I doubt a phone recording or speaker is gonna be worth much to satisfy my dirty nerdy needs.
