I haven’t had a problem.Ī UPS is only to protect you from sudden power failures. Since a manufacturer won’t want that reputation, I highly doubt it will be an issue. My line of thinking, is if the manufacturer can’t make something to survive being on 24x7, it’s not worth buying. It is a simple and easy to use out-of-the-box solution that will allow everyone to install and administrate a Network Attached Storage without deeper knowledge. If it does end up being an issue, never buy that brand again. OpenMediaVault is primarily designed to be used in home environments or small home offices, but is not limited to those scenarios. I wouldn’t bother with that (yet), just install the apps.Īs far as leaving the drive on all the time, that shouldn’t be an issue. It does work great, but keep in mind that the Pi is ARM, so you’ll need special containers if you go that route. Docker containers work well, but are a higher level of complexity depending on your comfort level. You don’t need an advanced firewall, but you may have to forward ports depending on if you want things to be available externally. I doubt it though, I run about that many things on one of mine and it’s great. It should all run fine, but if it does slow down a bit, you may have to add a second Pi. Do I need a UPS to power up the Raspberry PI and hard drive?įor your first question, you should be fine with all of those except you’d replace FreeNAS (now called TrueNAS) with OpenMediaVault.If I leave it on for 24X7, will it generate too much heat? Should I shuck the drive by removing the case and use some fan for cooling? If a fan is required, do you happen to know which one will work best? I bought the 14TB hard drive from Best buy during the black friday sale.Can I install all softwares directly on the Raspberry PI? Or use some virtualization software to create VMs and install one service per VM? Or can I use Docker to install one software in a docker container? Which option is better?.Could you please help? My questions are below. I have few questions and need clarifications. If I install the above, do I need to have an advanced firewall like pfsense or untangle?.Install NextCloud to share the data outside of my home network.Install syncthing to sync all data from multiple PCs into the 14TB hard drive.
Install FreeNAS/OpenMediavault to backup the data on a 14TB hard drive and use Backblaze B2 for cloud backup.To start with, I am planning to do the following. 1 x 900GB SAS 7.I just ordered a Raspberry PI 4 with 8GB RAM thinking that I can use it for some common home lab/server/automation. 2 x E5540 (if I remember correctly, might be E5520) HP ProLiant D元80 G7 (top) - I snagged this for £27, mainly used to mess around on: 1 x 500GB HDD - soon will be upgraded to a SSD for the boot drive, a pair of NVMe drives in a RAID 1 for VM storage and then an array of either RAID 10 or 6 (I can’t decide) HDDs in the front for the NAS part of the build 1 x L5630 processor, I changed this out myself from the included E5620s as I needed a lower power server 8GB DDR3 ECC, this will be upgraded soon Runs OpenMediaVault, PiHole and Nextcloud as well as Syncthing Horrible fan noise that I have to sleep throughĭell Poweredge R510 - Got this at a deal for £35, this thing runs most of my daily services: 1.3” touchscreen (that I definitely use all the time)Ĭisco 3750G-24T (reversed) - runs all inter-vlan traffic as well as DHCP, managed to snag it for £30: UDM Pro - only there to route traffic to the internet:
