1 00:00:00,880 --> 00:00:09,240 it is finally the conclusion of personal rig update 2015 yes I know it is 2016 2 00:00:06,759 --> 00:00:14,160 now that's not the point the point is that it started in 2015 today is all 3 00:00:11,880 --> 00:00:20,480 about the final deployment in the cabinet in the closet 4 00:00:17,720 --> 00:00:20,480 so let's make it 5 00:00:26,720 --> 00:00:33,320 happen a Pacers as720 is a dual 6 00:00:30,119 --> 00:00:35,960 interface USB 3.1 type c equipped SSD 7 00:00:33,320 --> 00:00:40,320 with read speeds of up to 540 mbes per second check out the link in the video 8 00:00:37,760 --> 00:00:45,200 description to learn more yeah let's just like tip 9 00:00:41,800 --> 00:00:47,120 it okay well I didn't really do anything 10 00:00:45,200 --> 00:00:52,359 uh now I got to load up all the other junk into the back of the truck here so 11 00:00:50,000 --> 00:00:58,039 this is actually our first look at my wife's machine so it also had the front 12 00:00:55,039 --> 00:01:00,359 bezel of the same case uh airbrushed by 13 00:00:58,039 --> 00:01:06,920 our neighbor here neighbor Steve let's get this baby loaded up too 14 00:01:03,519 --> 00:01:06,920 okay looking 15 00:01:07,240 --> 00:01:15,880 good oh no need an optical drive oo light 16 00:01:13,759 --> 00:01:20,240 scribe okay so here's the situation there's actually a lot to do first I've 17 00:01:17,759 --> 00:01:26,240 got to get this ruthless bastard up the stairs I have straight up no idea how 18 00:01:22,840 --> 00:01:28,720 that's happening these PCS this UPS 19 00:01:26,240 --> 00:01:34,880 these rails these monitors all need to go up the stairs as as well this Nas 20 00:01:31,920 --> 00:01:42,040 needs the correct Hardware put inside it and finally all of the gear that we are 21 00:01:38,000 --> 00:01:45,560 no longer using in here needs to 22 00:01:42,040 --> 00:01:47,119 GTFO so let's get down to it shall we 23 00:01:45,560 --> 00:01:53,200 okay well this thing weighs a metric shed load but there are some ways that I 24 00:01:50,680 --> 00:01:58,680 can significantly reduce its weight then by removing as many of the outer panels 25 00:01:56,280 --> 00:02:01,799 and inner components as I can before I try and take it up the stairs 26 00:02:00,680 --> 00:02:05,039 can you move thank 27 00:02:06,880 --> 00:02:14,280 you I need more leverage more more okay 28 00:02:11,840 --> 00:02:18,760 more traction more something I need more something this is what I hate about 29 00:02:16,080 --> 00:02:23,920 camera people they never lend a hand they just sit there and 30 00:02:23,920 --> 00:02:31,879 watch I think what I need right now is some Nikki V's lifting tips 31 00:02:30,280 --> 00:02:35,560 all right Nikki V here back with another moving tip okay so we got this big ass 32 00:02:33,760 --> 00:02:39,800 thing here what we want to do is lift with our back twist jerk in a you know 33 00:02:37,519 --> 00:02:46,959 jerking motion he knows the most ergonomic way to do 34 00:02:42,519 --> 00:02:49,440 this okay go to sleep he's supposed to 35 00:02:46,959 --> 00:02:54,400 be napping I'm actually going to have to go into his room in order to tilt this 36 00:02:51,400 --> 00:02:54,400 up 37 00:03:03,720 --> 00:03:06,959 okay sorry honey go back to 38 00:03:07,000 --> 00:03:11,419 bed 39 00:03:13,000 --> 00:03:21,599 okay oh wow that's a really tight fit 40 00:03:21,599 --> 00:03:30,680 um okay it looks like this is going to 41 00:03:26,239 --> 00:03:32,640 fit that's good man this stuff is heavy 42 00:03:30,680 --> 00:03:39,920 okay so this and the other one in the room in there already are the clay power 43 00:03:35,799 --> 00:03:42,120 uh th000 volt damp UPS's that I'm going 44 00:03:39,920 --> 00:03:45,599 to be using for the two systems in there my system gets its own cuz it's a little 45 00:03:43,680 --> 00:03:51,000 bit more powerful and then my wife's is going to share her ups with the uh the 46 00:03:48,480 --> 00:03:51,000 server 47 00:03:51,879 --> 00:03:57,680 slnas life personal rig oh wow this 48 00:03:55,200 --> 00:03:57,680 one's a lot 49 00:03:58,280 --> 00:04:09,159 heavier okay Pro tip uh don't don't carry rack mount 50 00:04:05,079 --> 00:04:12,799 cases by the mounting Rail and Acer said 51 00:04:09,159 --> 00:04:16,359 let there be monitor upgrades and there 52 00:04:12,799 --> 00:04:19,759 were and it was good and finally of 53 00:04:16,359 --> 00:04:22,680 course none of this is staying 54 00:04:19,759 --> 00:04:27,400 here it's all going to be rack mounted so here are my rails so I've been 55 00:04:25,560 --> 00:04:31,919 meaning to pull out some of the consumer grade gear that I've had in this server 56 00:04:29,400 --> 00:04:38,560 for for quite some time this WS board is a great board doesn't support ECC memory 57 00:04:35,199 --> 00:04:40,639 this raid card Great Raid card doesn't 58 00:04:38,560 --> 00:04:44,840 properly support monitoring the discs and then I've replaced all that stuff 59 00:04:42,639 --> 00:04:48,080 with a more suitable configuration so while I don't have the Ballin six or8 60 00:04:46,600 --> 00:04:54,039 terab hard drives that I do with the office I do have 1 tby WD blacks and I 61 00:04:51,280 --> 00:05:00,120 am using an Enterprise grade SSD cash in raid one to allow me to get the best 62 00:04:56,440 --> 00:05:01,960 possible performance out of the yes the 63 00:05:00,120 --> 00:05:07,440 you thought they were retired but they're not ulx 10 GB network card so 64 00:05:05,960 --> 00:05:12,360 I'm actually going to be using those combined with the onboard Nyx in order 65 00:05:10,039 --> 00:05:17,759 to enable not 10 gbit but at least faster than 1 gbit transfers between all 66 00:05:14,960 --> 00:05:21,400 the rack mounted computers just using um single cables from them to each other 67 00:05:19,880 --> 00:05:25,360 and actually not having them go through the router or the switch at all I 68 00:05:23,319 --> 00:05:29,919 changed up the motherboard to uh one that has Remote Management so I've added 69 00:05:27,319 --> 00:05:35,039 a little ikvm module right there I've changed out to ECC memory not really 70 00:05:32,280 --> 00:05:38,639 necessary with unraid but I want the utmost instability I'm going to be 71 00:05:36,560 --> 00:05:42,680 running VMS on here so that I can have stuff like my air video server running 72 00:05:40,319 --> 00:05:45,880 on Windows um and then I can have stuff like crash plan running in a Docker 73 00:05:44,400 --> 00:05:49,680 container there's a lot of functionality here I may do a follow-up video on just 74 00:05:48,080 --> 00:05:53,680 this machine and then I'm running a xon processor so that I can take advantage 75 00:05:51,280 --> 00:05:59,440 of that ECC RAM and then it uses a very similar case to Clover server actually 76 00:05:56,560 --> 00:06:04,199 it's just the 12 Bay versus the 8 bay one because at home I don't have those 77 00:06:01,600 --> 00:06:10,080 same high-capacity drives so if I want any storage at all I need to have uh a 78 00:06:06,840 --> 00:06:12,479 few more expansion Baye there okay so 79 00:06:10,080 --> 00:06:18,160 now I got to clear out this corner and I really hope you guys either don't look 80 00:06:15,000 --> 00:06:19,960 too closely at or don't judge me for my 81 00:06:18,160 --> 00:06:25,199 power setup in here I am going to be working on something a little bit better 82 00:06:21,759 --> 00:06:28,919 than a power bar run through the wall in 83 00:06:25,199 --> 00:06:30,840 the future okay so most of the network 84 00:06:28,919 --> 00:06:37,000 cables running into the next room over there actually need to go away because 85 00:06:35,319 --> 00:06:43,160 all of the networking is pretty much going to stay in here 86 00:06:39,080 --> 00:06:46,400 now yep that's my that's my wall 87 00:06:43,160 --> 00:06:49,919 hole oh no I pulled out the nails this 88 00:06:46,400 --> 00:06:49,919 is the world's most ghetto wall 89 00:06:51,280 --> 00:06:56,080 mount so step one is going to be our ups 90 00:06:54,360 --> 00:07:01,280 battery backups we're going to put these on the bottom because they're really 91 00:06:57,599 --> 00:07:02,879 heavy they're a pain in the butt to uh 92 00:07:01,280 --> 00:07:08,800 to move you don't want your thing ending up being all topheavy and the other main 93 00:07:05,960 --> 00:07:13,840 reason is that I don't have shelves for them so I need to sit them on the bottom 94 00:07:11,960 --> 00:07:18,680 of the unit so that the entire weight isn't being borne 95 00:07:17,639 --> 00:07:25,639 by these puppies there we go okay one down second 96 00:07:23,680 --> 00:07:31,400 GS here we go so now all that's left to do is plug 97 00:07:28,680 --> 00:07:36,440 those into the wall and then all my other devices can plug into those for 98 00:07:34,960 --> 00:07:40,840 power so I don't actually have to get back here anymore okay so for those of 99 00:07:38,960 --> 00:07:46,440 you who haven't played around with rack mount stuff before basically you take 100 00:07:43,240 --> 00:07:49,039 this inner slide you pop the little 101 00:07:46,440 --> 00:07:54,680 latch here all this without slicing your fingers 102 00:07:51,199 --> 00:07:57,000 open and then these rails mount to the 103 00:07:54,680 --> 00:08:02,680 side of your case with the screws that are included with the rails then 104 00:08:00,400 --> 00:08:07,280 you take the other sides of the rails and you mount these inside your cabinet 105 00:08:05,120 --> 00:08:13,039 hopefully in the right position which is not always easy wow this is a really 106 00:08:10,800 --> 00:08:18,400 shallow cabinet I didn't realize these weren't the same depth as the ones at 107 00:08:15,879 --> 00:08:24,520 the office that's okay that is a very minor curve 108 00:08:21,159 --> 00:08:27,800 ball no I'm one spot 109 00:08:24,520 --> 00:08:31,800 high of course I am yeah it needs to go 110 00:08:27,800 --> 00:08:33,839 down just a touch so weird wanted to 111 00:08:31,800 --> 00:08:39,159 work up a sweat today I was thinking could go to the gym today or I could uh 112 00:08:36,279 --> 00:08:43,839 Mount some server crap can this just stay in 113 00:08:40,839 --> 00:08:43,839 place 114 00:08:45,880 --> 00:08:52,440 please tight fit is fine as long as it's 115 00:08:49,399 --> 00:08:54,880 a fit that's weird what are we hitting 116 00:08:52,440 --> 00:09:02,440 maybe if we just give it the old ah there we go three units rack mounted 117 00:08:59,880 --> 00:09:10,040 easy okay it's okay it gets easier these rails are so much frakin 118 00:09:06,800 --> 00:09:14,279 better they lock on like that No 119 00:09:10,040 --> 00:09:17,399 Nonsense just Boop let's do this one now 120 00:09:14,279 --> 00:09:21,079 now these ones are a little bit more 121 00:09:17,399 --> 00:09:24,600 finicky to align here I can live with 122 00:09:21,079 --> 00:09:24,600 that for the benefits that they 123 00:09:25,920 --> 00:09:31,200 give there we go look at that man I love 124 00:09:28,959 --> 00:09:36,360 these reils it comes free of the entire thing so you can just go boop I'm 125 00:09:33,279 --> 00:09:38,760 working on the wife PC slide that baby 126 00:09:36,360 --> 00:09:47,000 back in there and there it 127 00:09:42,880 --> 00:09:50,880 is okay last 128 00:09:47,000 --> 00:09:52,519 one man I like those rails 129 00:09:50,880 --> 00:09:58,200 better okay oh I put them in 130 00:09:55,519 --> 00:10:01,320 backwards fortunately these are really fast to turn around 131 00:10:02,399 --> 00:10:08,279 it's in so let's get it all wired up 132 00:10:05,440 --> 00:10:13,440 then I'm probably going to get ear mounts for the ubiquity router as well 133 00:10:10,920 --> 00:10:20,040 as the net gear switch at some point I am going to give myself another power 134 00:10:16,800 --> 00:10:21,760 bar as well up here I have a more 135 00:10:20,040 --> 00:10:26,160 elegant solution at the office but this actually isn't too bad I'm just going to 136 00:10:24,160 --> 00:10:28,320 hook those up on top 137 00:10:28,320 --> 00:10:32,880 here UPS's are on let's get networking 138 00:10:31,760 --> 00:10:41,000 hooked up okay this is going well now Ethernet 139 00:10:37,000 --> 00:10:42,519 for waifu PC I mean okay overall not 140 00:10:41,000 --> 00:10:45,920 perfect Cable Management still needs some work yeah this is as good as it's 141 00:10:44,519 --> 00:10:51,120 going to be for now okay so with everything hooked up it 142 00:10:48,320 --> 00:10:54,480 is finally time for The Secret Sauce the Magic Bullet if you will and those of 143 00:10:53,440 --> 00:11:00,519 you who have been following from the beginning will already know this but I've had a lot of people asking me who 144 00:10:58,000 --> 00:11:07,880 have tuned into personal rig update 2015 later how are you planning to get all of 145 00:11:03,480 --> 00:11:10,360 your IO into the next room one Optical 146 00:11:07,880 --> 00:11:16,720 Thunderbolt cable per system from Corning that's why I added those assus 147 00:11:13,040 --> 00:11:18,680 Thunderbolt cards to the systems so all 148 00:11:16,720 --> 00:11:24,720 I've got to do is run these puppies through the wall and in theory we're 149 00:11:21,959 --> 00:11:24,720 pretty much Off to the 150 00:11:25,560 --> 00:11:31,279 Races how much is left okay 151 00:11:31,279 --> 00:11:37,959 okay now obviously a single Thunderbolt cable no matter how magical is going to 152 00:11:36,320 --> 00:11:43,920 need something on the other end to make it work so that is where these come in 153 00:11:41,279 --> 00:11:48,600 these are Thunderbolt hubs from Elgato uh they've got three USB 3 ports they've 154 00:11:46,040 --> 00:11:53,040 got mic and headphone Jacks they've got Thunderbolt pass through if you want to 155 00:11:49,959 --> 00:11:55,880 daisy chain more stuff and if you want 156 00:11:53,040 --> 00:11:59,680 it they've got an HDMI out as well as Ethernet if we're going to use 157 00:11:57,480 --> 00:12:05,720 Thunderbolt to DisplayPort to go straight to our Monitor and that is all 158 00:12:03,720 --> 00:12:11,440 the I/O for the computer again Cable Management not done but it is somewhat 159 00:12:07,639 --> 00:12:15,600 Moment of Truth time oh I hope this 160 00:12:11,440 --> 00:12:18,279 works here it is 161 00:12:15,600 --> 00:12:22,639 theoretically perfect Silence with no performance 162 00:12:23,040 --> 00:12:31,440 compromise whoa it worked right away what were the fraking odds of that 163 00:12:29,320 --> 00:12:36,279 nothing ever works on the first try for me all we've got to do in theory is get 164 00:12:34,639 --> 00:12:42,600 some Thunderbolt drivers installed on the system which I have to do from over 165 00:12:38,720 --> 00:12:43,959 here a yes always connect Elgato 166 00:12:42,600 --> 00:12:50,639 Thunderbolt dock 167 00:12:46,000 --> 00:12:51,399 okay hey look at that keyboard's working 168 00:12:50,639 --> 00:12:57,800 it worked once now we just have to do it 169 00:12:54,079 --> 00:13:01,120 again all that's left is to run one more 170 00:12:57,800 --> 00:13:03,639 Thunderbolt cable and we are pretty much 171 00:13:01,120 --> 00:13:08,320 Off to the Races ah someone was asking from my 172 00:13:06,040 --> 00:13:15,440 tweet the other night uh what desk this was and the answer is it is a desk saw 173 00:13:11,560 --> 00:13:15,440 in half full of 174 00:13:16,760 --> 00:13:24,199 cardboard for years for years I have 175 00:13:21,040 --> 00:13:27,880 pursued silent 176 00:13:24,199 --> 00:13:30,360 Computing and in the end Thunderbolt was 177 00:13:27,880 --> 00:13:36,199 the answer no amount of water cooling ever made it quite good enough and 178 00:13:33,120 --> 00:13:37,760 people asked me gee lonus why would you 179 00:13:36,199 --> 00:13:42,920 care about having a window on a rack out case that's why 180 00:13:40,240 --> 00:13:48,519 suckers that's why because that looks flipping awesome so this one's actually 181 00:13:45,360 --> 00:13:51,199 relatively tested I have at least tried 182 00:13:48,519
