My Q10 has been my daily for a year now. Love it.

How much 💵

How much space was there between the GPU cable and the lid?

The de t5820 is tricky. I bought one that had 4 sata flexbays. I thought just buying the dell m2 nvme flexbay would work. You also have to buy a backplane for the nvme flexbays after taking out one of the 2 sata backplanes. The cables for the nvme flexbays fit to some connectors in the motherboard, plus the heat sensor cable. So, know your stuff for this model. Also the is a sas backplane i believe. I may resort to a pci card solution if the above is too much work as well as potential added costs

This was a very informative video. Kudos for sharing

coup de grâce [ˌko͞o də ˈɡräs] noun a final blow or shot given to kill a wounded person or animal: "he administered the coup de grâce with a knife" lol

How about measuring the temps for each pattern in a real world scenario?

Love the video, do think this is pretty pricey especially once you populate the drive pools too but....I am a self-confessed Unraid fanboy with 3 currently running in my house....I dont get what you mean about the storage creation being bad...you can configure seperate pools(or as standalone drives), you can have extra(or no!) parity drives...I think you could have explained a bit about the parity system...apologies this is one of the first of your videos Ive watched and I did enjoy it, but perhaps I dont know the level of your members/subscribers when not really explaining that part. Again though I really did enjoy the video...I do wonder why manufacturers are so drawn to creating things with flashing/pulsing lights that do nothing, and cant be turned off!!

I might take a stab at this one even for a server. I have a Gigabyte B550 Aorus with three NVME slots. Kinda hard to justify $240-$280 though.

on ally x press, 16TB usb thumb drives are cheaper than a big mac or a one way bus ticket to Hell, MI.

For me the SSD cache is not for improving performance. The SSD cach lowers the noise because alls the files Download Station, the home drives and all stuff my family mostly ready but rarly writes are now an the SSD cache. The whole system is much quieter with ssd cache. I would never expect that the ssd would make any difference unles maybe you have MANY user accessing the system at the same time. On another note. Of course the RAM upgrade make hardly any difference for normal operations. But if you are running a lot of stuff in cirtual machines/docker containers the 4GB it came with just does not cut it. Long story short: for me the RAM upgrade and the SSD cache made a notable difference - just not in the way you might expect. Bottom line: after 3 years of service I'm still impressed with the 920+

Great review! But what's with the crazy 4k Crystal Diskmark results!?

you test RGB Fans, but dont count the RGB Leds in them?

Great short brief intro and straight to the point no BS - Thanks for a great video!!!

You can still use ESXi, assuming you have kept the ISO's and your keys, which i have. I decided to give Proxmox a go last month an after being a VMware admin for 9 years i found it fairly easy to get to grips with it. There were a few things i had to google such as the ISO storage !. Personally i have found it very good and on comparable hardware im noticing lower CPU use and lower RAM use compared to ESXi running exactly the same VM's.

When a guy doing a hypervisor server build opens with the honeycomb pattern..... well, I'm questioning my lifes choices watching the rest of this too lol

Awesome! Big thx you!

Actually UGreen has been offering NAS in Mainland China 🇨🇳 for quite a while now.

absolute garbage machine, cant even get it set up, and there helpdesk was useless!.

it sounds gross in comparison with other keyboards

Did he nutted on his keycaps? Why is it so glossy? 🤨

Question, which nas is better

HAHAHAHAH

I'd rather print these myself, any thoughts on just selling the STLs? I'd prefer that they be Gridfinity or Multiboard / Honeycomb Storage Wall compatible, I'm trying to do away with just random containers of things in my office.

4:59 In the first video I see that they install two WD Blue SN570 500GB and in this video it is shown that there are three that they installed....... where did they install the third? I can't "create pool" (mirror) because one of my NVMe is the "boot-pool" Help!

Single 2.5 GbE and n5105 make this a great NAS if released a couple of years back, but not in 2024.

@2guystek thank you for putting this together. The console for Hyper-V is PowerShell. Being present in any Windows OS and allows the local or remote management of Windows Server and Hyper-V and pretty much everything from Microsoft. Lately you could also use SSH. Hyper-V is not discontinued. The Support end date depends on the OS version of Windows Server 2022 or Azure Stack HCI, with Windows Server 2025 being released later this year expanding it by another 10 years. Hyper-V is the tech that's running on Windows 10/11/Xbox for security. And most importantly whole Microsoft Azure Cloud. Mangement options via MMC are odd and clunky. All inbox mangement tools stopped in development from Windows Server 2012 R2. Intention was to use Windows Admin Center via Azure Portal or Windows Admin Center VM. Hyper-V also is pretty much optimized in terms of management for HCI / S2D. That's why even Windows Admin Center cannot shine in terms of monitoring and metric with just Hyper-V and having seperate storage like SAN. On switching, same applies, Hyper-V Networking is overly not configured in the old console. You are right it's handled by the OS via Hyper-V driven SET switch. This is used for teaming even when you do not use any Hyper-V VMs. Hope this helps. I don't blame you or anyone for not knowing certain details and being grateful you are trying to get yourself familiar with this tech.

So much lost opportunity on this NAS. 2.5GB networking is a joke on a NAS with multiple NVME. This thing should have either dual 10GB nic or Oculink pcie 5.0 to allow a 40GB nic.

Openstack or Cloudstack

one bad for the Hyper-V is that it is not a good way to install a Microsoft AD domain controller in it, as Hyper-V needs to join the AD domain. I don't like it. the good for the Hyper-V is that I can have a good plan to move it to Azure Cloud (vhd disk)

I'm not a professional or an admin who deploys virtual systems , but from day 1 vmware had the same problem that many open source products had. If you come out on day 1 in competition with yourself , offering free scaled down personal solutions that directly compete with your paid business model , what do you think will happen to the value of your Paid solutions . it will be consistently undermined and in conflict with your business model.

Thanks for the video, I think is a compelling NAS, however, the fact the it is NVME make the 2.5gbe sounds not right. I was surprised that you didn't mentioned the 2.5gbe as a downside. For some people 10gbe on mvme storage is a must. I am looking for something similar to the one in the video but 10gbe. Thanks 😊 for the video.

I know it really makes me a butthole but as soon as I heard unraid I was done.

is see in the main menu that there is a 4gb flash storage? is this on the device it self or is it an usb flash drive. alse with there new licensing you have to buy updates every year.

How about a cwwk p5 with nvme carrier module ? Which have n100/n305 option and with nvme carrier you can have quad nvme plus two sata The problem of this nas is the slow network, and included unraid basic plan only have 6 device limit if remember correctly, mount more device or go UD you need more device limit ,right ? So we cant use those usb port for more /portable storage when all 6ssd bay was populated

I do like unraid and have been using it for over 10 years. I don't mind the storage creation

What brand is the m.2 NVME storage case?

Yikes unraid. This thing is already dead to me and I am only 30 seconds into the Video. I know people like it but I don't. If it is possible to buy it without OS and save some money would be nice.

Nice video helped me a lot.

Can we get a periodic update on this topic. As you said, things are rapidly changing.

if you wanted to could yo wipe out unraid and install something else such as proxmox or truenas instead?

Legal software that collects personal and probably confidential data works like a virus. Be careful with passwords and important documents. Outgoing TCP ports 80 or 8443 opened through your firewall. That's why it's free

2.5gb is the weak spot this unit with nvme ,should be at the minimum a 10gb nic similar to the Ugreen offering

The poor networking kills this product.

NICE!!!!!! LOVE IT !!! I want one !!

These guys reached out to me to review something recently and their products look slick. When I asked them if they deliberately ripped off LinkinPark's logo, they quit responding to me lol
