Hello,
No movement for years. I'm looking for an answer to this question. Also im a bit of a noob for cluster storage so perhaps im barking up the wrong tree.
I have one box currently at 90% capacity on the shares, I don't have any more room for drives on this box. Mid tower that has been heavily modified to support 15 hdd and 5 SSDs.
Goal:
Build new box with more storage. cluster the extra space. I would like the shares to be the same and have any new data save to the new drives on the second box.
Bonus: If possible use the exra cpu and or exra gpu to do some work too. Transcoding.
Is this possible or do i need to switch to something like Ceph which is an open-source software built on enterprise OS?
