That is just it. The server it self is encrypted. I don't need the software to encrypt the files also. I know it sounds stupid but like the way I have it now I can easily take the server out and replace it with my home backup and won't know a difference.

I've looked at crashplan but how does it store the data when going from computer to computer? I know the transaction is encrypted. But what about the data?

First Note: I did a search on here and didn't quite find what I was looking for. So I am currently right now manually backing up stuff across my network manually. I am looking to do this more of an automated way. Also I have a server at a CoLo for "off site" backup and I have full control over data/machine. That I am using as a "Mounted Disk" on my windows machines to move files back and forward. Any Ideas?

Well this is the same happening transferring to my Windows Server 2012. 91MB/second transfer speed.

Yea and it's working that way. although doing 2 different transfers to 2 different disks. they both are transfering around 80MB/s to 90MB/s. so total utilizing about 70%. that is more than 1gb worth of transfer so LACP is working. But there has to be a way to get more transfer out of this.

It has Intel Nics and I am running LACP with it as well.

That worked. Good sir! Thank you. Also something I have notice is I am still not peaking out the full transfer rate. If transferring a 32gb file from SSD on NAS to SSD on computer I am getting 113MB/second transfer rate. I have LAG setup also on my computer. side note: transferring from SSD(Intel 730 Series 450GB - Sata 6) to SSD(Intel 750 Series 400GB - PciE) on my computer transfer rate average 505MB/second

It got the br1 to show in the drop down however now the VMs are showing no connectivity.

Here you go. It might show that because I have my switch configured for LAG on eth2 &eth3

I had notice this on the console. I am showing 2 bonds When typed "/usr/sbin/brctl show"

Check out ownCloud

;D 8)

I had reboot the server but nothing showed up.

I had went to that over putty as well with NANO and put that it but shouldn't br1 show in the drop down option for networking on the VMs?

Thanks for the script. Anyone tell me where that script goes. The place where I thought it went I cannot find anymore on the main page. I'm probably just loosing my mind.

Well I am trying to make it where it just works. A nice and simple system.

Just to clarify then, are you transcoding as well to downconvert these larger files to mp4s in your setup? Don't get me wrong, I definitely like what your doing, but Plex is free to use inside the home already and doesn't need a powerful endpoint or even server if you are not transcoding. Just trying to figure out the gaps you are filling compared to them. No I am down converting them using handbrake. I haven't fully looked into all the features of Plex but I am just putting another option out on the table for people to use. I do have to say this is also a sub part of another project I am working on. So in reality I am just killing 2 birds with one stone. <-Figure of speech.

That is why I was talking about drive longevity. Although I do have to say that SSDs will pass HDs in price per TB but till they get the longevity thing figured out that is when things will get interesting. Although there are still BIG company's out there that is still using TAPE for there backups.

While SSDs are nice for R/W speeds the Regular HDs still have a long history of not failing for long term storage. The life span of a SSD is still too short against a regular HD. Just my 2¢

Well the charging part for me was a big turn off part. This system that I am designing will not let you stream outside of your network. However your talking about files sizes. Taking a Blue-ray version of Avatar was around 32GB in its MKV files format. Once converted down to MP4 the file size shrank down to 11GB. Now for regular DVDs they are ranging roughly 5GB file size in MKV and down to about 1GB in MP4. Also PLEX does support quite a few devices but being able to have a "web based" environment to be able to watch your movies without the need for a "powerful machine" is a big plus in my book. Essentially I am making this where you can run it on a Raspberry Pi with hardly any load. (1Ghz CPU with 512mb ram). Just something light weight. I ain't saying PLEX has its place but I was just wanting to put another option out on the table for people to use for free.

Would be happy to name it "WhatTheHellTV". Lmao But unFLIX could work too

No not yet. It's still in its rough state. Right now I have been testing out how the system handles "big" movies and still trying to figure out on if I should go with a BD route or a directory puller. I am thinking of doing a directory puller. So your files will be like this. A main directory that will be hard set aka //tower/movies. (User hard set) Then a directory that will be the category. Then a directory that has the Movies or episodes And I am thinking of utilizing an upload so you can upload a "movie poster". That will put the file in with the movies/episodes.

It maybe can but I am unfamiliar with dockers and how they work/created. But I will include instructions on how to install everything. But if it is possible to create a docker or a plug in I am all ears on learning as far as that part. As it currently is I am running a VM with Ubuntu server lite with LAMP. (Not currently utilizing MySQL). Current loads while pulling 3 streams is at 0.5% cpu.

Soo I am running some beta tests now and so far so good. Here is what I have. I have designed a site that can be ran on a VM and will pull your videos from your NAS. There is no costs for any of the software and "site" package I am designing. I am also going to test if the site can be ran off of a Raspberry Pi. Currently I am running a VM with 1 cpu core and 1gb of ram and was able to "stream" a blue-ray quality movie (Avatar) to my smart TV. Being that the whole system worked with web programming it should work with any device that has an updated version of a web browser as the system is utilizing HTML5. Best trick I am doing also is adding a download button where you can download your videos to your phone/tables and be able to watch your movies out of your home network. (Keep in mind that you have space on your device). Once I have a full beta ready I will post instructions on how to get started and using the system. Any ideas/comments please let me know. I welcome any input! (Sorry for any typos as I typed this on my phone)
