SpencerJ Posted February 21, 2019 Share Posted February 21, 2019 Please vote- and if you think you've got the largest server capacity, attach pics!! Quote Link to comment
JonathanM Posted February 21, 2019 Share Posted February 21, 2019 For those of us with multiple servers, I guess just vote the largest one? My test server could be close to the smallest active, it's 1TB. Doesn't even make the poll. 1 1 Quote Link to comment
Harro Posted February 22, 2019 Share Posted February 22, 2019 (edited) Currently at 114 TB. Starting to replace my 8 TB with 10's. Once complete 150 TB, but that will take the rest of the year I believe. Update 12-16-2019 Finished upgrading hard drives to 10 TB's. With my old 8 TB drives created a second server. 230 total TB's between the 2. I now am done. Specs are in signature. added picture of my 150 server..AKA Landfill Edit : This is my current storage and as you can see , I have upgraded to the 10 TB drives. If I do go larger next step would be to the 16TB drives. Edited March 15, 2021 by Harro Added info for current storage. 5 Quote Link to comment
bonienl Posted February 22, 2019 Share Posted February 22, 2019 I like round numbers and settled for 100 TB on my main server 2 Quote Link to comment

nasforthemass Posted February 23, 2019 Share Posted February 23, 2019 (edited) I'm currently at 40 (excluding parity, unassigned and cache...) but I am only using 6 of the 15 case slots. if only i won a very small lotto ticket, it would be full! UPDATE 07/2022: 78TB (excluding parity, unassigned and cache...) using 10 of the 15 case slots. Finally got to the stage of mixing drive sizes!

kizer Posted February 24, 2019 Share Posted February 24, 2019 I’m only sitting at 17.5TB. I’d drop in more Drives but I currently have 6TB free so I’m not exactly needing if “yet.” 1 Quote Link to comment
IamSpartacus Posted February 27, 2019 Share Posted February 27, 2019 Two (main/backup) 80TB servers that backup daily offsite. 1 Quote Link to comment
KB36 Posted March 17, 2019 Share Posted March 17, 2019 I'm on 28 TB Spread across 11 data drives (excluding parity and cache) Planning on swapping the 3 TB parity disc to a 4 TB, and upgrade my 5 2TB discs. 1 Quote Link to comment
rcm_fw Posted March 18, 2019 Share Posted March 18, 2019 72TB Backup Server + 1,5TB Cache SSD's Backup via Veeam B&R from our vSphere environment and Copy Jobs of our *.vmdk's from the environment, too. 1 Quote Link to comment
DZMM Posted March 22, 2019 Share Posted March 22, 2019 36TB with about 25% utilisation - most of it is a big 'cache' for files waiting to be uploaded to Google - about 300TB there 2 Quote Link to comment
Zonediver Posted March 23, 2019 Share Posted March 23, 2019 (edited) 44TB - 39,8TB in use with Movies and TV-shows - so fairly full... Edited November 11, 2019 by Zonediver 2 Quote Link to comment
ashman70 Posted March 23, 2019 Share Posted March 23, 2019 (edited) I have four unRAID servers, my largest is 141TB, if I add them all up it comes to 411TB Edited February 8, 2020 by ashman70 1 Quote Link to comment
Xaero Posted April 5, 2019 Share Posted April 5, 2019 (edited) 160TB usable here (192TB raw platters). Norco RPC-4224 SuperMicro X10DRL-IO 2x 1tb intel 660p for cache 24x Shucked WD Red 8TB drives from BestBuy black friday last year (over 60% off the price of the raw reds) 64gb DDR4-2133 ECC nVidia Quadro P2000 Not exactly happy with my HBA situation. Currently have an IBM M1015 connected to an HP port expander. The IBM card reports the drives as "standby" even though they are spun up. And the port expander only negotiates 3gb/s links (24 drives through two 4 port 3gb/s links is down to 1gb/s total bandwidth per drive) Going to be upgrading that, but not a lot of controllers that support IT mode and handle 24 disks. I'd like to not use a port expander but may be forced to. Edited April 5, 2019 by Xaero 1 Quote Link to comment

I'd like to not use a port expander but may be forced to. Even with a SAS2 or SAS3 port expander it should have full bandwidth per drive (about 125MB/s). If you get a dual port SAS2 expander that's 48gbps over 24 drives which is 250MB/s right (with SAS and PCIe overhead I guess around 200MB/s?). Edited June 11, 2019 by coolspot Quote Link to comment
Nicktdot Posted July 1, 2019 Share Posted July 1, 2019 Currently 193TB in a Chenbro NR40700 enclosure converted into a JBOD box attached to a LSI 9206-16e 4x 960GB NVME SSDs in a BTRFS cache Misc disk mounts for DB, Plex, Docker images, etc. Quote Link to comment
cammelspit Posted July 1, 2019 Share Posted July 1, 2019 Have room for two more drives which would kick me barely over the 100TB mark. Maybe I can convince the wife a JBOD enclosure would be nice for Christmas this year? 😜🤞 1 Quote Link to comment
Jcloud Posted July 1, 2019 Share Posted July 1, 2019 I'm community-small-fry at: 24TB array (4TB duel-parity, 3 & 4 TB disks - WD reds, black, golds) 13TB used (54%). I would love to update my array, but my budget is what it is. Anyone have any youtube channels to recommend scrapping/archiving? Please direct-message replies, as this is tangent to post.

aaronwt Posted July 1, 2019 Share Posted July 1, 2019 (edited) I have three unRAID setups now with at least 49TB each. Edited July 1, 2019 by aaronwt Quote Link to comment
bobbintb Posted July 2, 2019 Share Posted July 2, 2019 I'm at 43TB and probably about to add another 6TB soon. Quote Link to comment
alpha754293 Posted July 15, 2019 Share Posted July 15, 2019 My system isn't up and running yet, but my current installed, raw capacity at home is a total of about between 120-150 TB. Somewhere in there. I've lost count and it's been a while since I've audited all of my systems/servers, etc. The two new builds that I am targetting now is somewhere between 8-12 TB of pure NVMe SSD "cache" (of sorts) (using two or three Asus Hyper M.2 x16 cards and 8-12 Samsung 960 Pro 1 TB NVMe SSDs) that might sit "in front" of 12-16 10-14 TB drives. (So lowest capacity will be 120 TB raw, and highest will be 224 TB raw.) It'll depend on what's available and what can the management software do vs. what the hardware itself can do and cost of all of it. (My 80 TB (raw) server is already 85% full.) Quote Link to comment

spazmc Posted August 1, 2019 Share Posted August 1, 2019 (edited) 8 TB on 4 drives of various sizes and models with Parity. 22% utilized. And a 120 GB SSD cache. Edited August 1, 2019 by spazmc add Quote Link to comment
