October 31, 201015 yr The wood case adds such a warm and natural feeling to it, doesn't it? All it needs is a coat of varnish and lacquer and it's compete to sit next to the TV cabinet, Hehehe... I'd say it would warm up quite quick, pardon the pun . Funny stuff in the world of storage. I'd be interested to know what OS is running it? I don't recall seeing a mention.
November 1, 201015 yr I'd be interested to know what OS is running it? I don't recall seeing a mention. If i was trying to run 48 or more drives on one server I would probably be running open solaris with zfs. But I am an unraid fan now, and have no need for more than 30tb per unraid server. Also, would hate to see the rebuild on a 90tb array raid5, or 50. cc-
November 2, 201015 yr you can see 2 motherboards in the piks so I expect he is running 24 drives on 2 servers.
November 3, 201015 yr Still the questions remains, what to do with 90TB of storage? What in god's name do you put on that setup for *home* usage? Blu-ray rips. There's a fella on these forums with 2x 40TB unRAID servers. That's around 3600 BluRays I'd struggle to get to 1000 if I tried... (he says having just built a 20 bayer )

(he says having just built a 20 bayer ) The average Blu-ray is 35GB, so you're looking at 2285 full Blu-ray rips. I'm not sure if the man in question remuxes. I don't remux, personally. It sounds a lot, but eventually that size collection probably won't be out of the ordinary.
November 4, 201015 yr I think I worked out the average rip to be 25GB (I remux all of mine), although that may be a little skewed as I'm taking into account HD-DVD rips which are alot smaller.
November 4, 201015 yr I think I worked out the average rip to be 25GB (I remux all of mine), although that may be a little skewed as I'm taking into account HD-DVD rips which are alot smaller. Right, as I said, the average FULL Blu-ray rip is 35GB. Remuxes are of course all smaller because they are no longer the Blu-ray disc. I don't do remuxes.
November 4, 201015 yr Thanks to you lot with my new unRAID baby, I don't need to remux anymore either....that's been an alien concept since I got into streaming
November 6, 201015 yr ~Just looked at these pics again, makes me laugh every time, especially as I bet he's spent more time rebuilding the arrays than actually streaming anything
