1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:03,439
okay hold on oh god

2
00:00:05,200 --> 00:00:12,880
after being gravely disappointed when some of my fellow youtubers showed off

3
00:00:09,280 --> 00:00:16,160
their 30 to 60 000

4
00:00:12,880 --> 00:00:18,240
jellyfish network storage devices i set

5
00:00:16,160 --> 00:00:22,080
out with exactly the same budget to build something that could absolutely

6
00:00:20,000 --> 00:00:27,359
run circles around the thing now given that we could afford ssds for

7
00:00:25,039 --> 00:00:31,840
what they charge for hard drives it wasn't surprising when we

8
00:00:29,599 --> 00:00:36,399
fried their jellyfishies but for some reason apparently people are still

9
00:00:34,000 --> 00:00:42,000
buying enough of these jellyfish things that owc recently purchased lumaforge

10
00:00:39,920 --> 00:00:47,600
the company that makes them did we not make our point people do you have any

11
00:00:44,719 --> 00:00:53,520
idea how much money we could have saved if we didn't go full stupid and build

12
00:00:49,840 --> 00:00:56,719
the thing purely from solid state drives

13
00:00:53,520 --> 00:00:56,719
the answer is

14
00:00:57,760 --> 00:01:03,280
45 000 that's right

15
00:01:00,879 --> 00:01:07,040
on this table is everything we need to build a machine that is better than the

16
00:01:04,960 --> 00:01:14,159
jellyfish in just about every possible way and costs one fifth as much

17
00:01:11,360 --> 00:01:18,000
so let's fry the jellyfish once and for all and we're gonna do so with the help

18
00:01:15,760 --> 00:01:21,119
of our friends over at pulseway big thanks to paul sway not only for

19
00:01:19,439 --> 00:01:25,280
sponsoring this video but for building such fantastic remote management and

20
00:01:23,280 --> 00:01:28,479
monitoring software with pulseway you can manage your whole organization's it

21
00:01:27,200 --> 00:01:33,200
infrastructure on the go with their mobile apps and even create and deploy

22
00:01:30,960 --> 00:01:37,400
custom scripts to simplify your job check them out at the link below

23
00:01:44,400 --> 00:01:50,320
i'm sure you're thinking lioness you can't possibly make something for

24
00:01:48,399 --> 00:01:55,439
one-fifth of the price without some pretty big compromises on the hardware i

25
00:01:52,720 --> 00:01:58,799
mean when it comes to a gaming pc yeah you can save a few hundred bucks

26
00:01:56,880 --> 00:02:03,200
building your own over getting someone to do it for you but if you try to cut

27
00:02:01,040 --> 00:02:07,759
eighty percent of your budget you're going to end up with something like this

28
00:02:05,280 --> 00:02:12,959
where is it going really impressive i'm stuck no professional would use that

29
00:02:10,399 --> 00:02:17,680
well you're wrong excuse me wrong so very wrong lumaforge

30
00:02:15,760 --> 00:02:22,560
has a few different models but we're going to be targeting their tower slash

31
00:02:19,840 --> 00:02:27,599
rack models specifically because well partly they're the most ridiculous

32
00:02:24,640 --> 00:02:32,160
and also partly we like the idea of rack mounting storage and we actually intend

33
00:02:29,760 --> 00:02:37,040
to use this thing in the long term so we're going to replicate the 240

34
00:02:34,400 --> 00:02:41,440
terabyte rack model with the optional boost package we'll talk about what that

35
00:02:39,120 --> 00:02:47,599
marketing nonsense actually means later for our case we've gone with istar usa's

36
00:02:44,000 --> 00:02:50,239
e4 m24 hd which includes even more drive

37
00:02:47,599 --> 00:02:55,280
slots than the rack or tower jellyfish and should fit the rest of our hardware

38
00:02:52,560 --> 00:02:59,840
nicely one challenge though is that lumaforge is not very forthcoming about

39
00:02:57,519 --> 00:03:03,840
the specific components of their systems lest somebody google the part numbers

40
00:03:01,920 --> 00:03:06,720
and figure out how hard they are being pleased

41
00:03:05,040 --> 00:03:10,080
but there are some things that we know from last time around and some others

42
00:03:08,800 --> 00:03:15,920
that we can glean from their product pages first off lumaforge's big selling point

43
00:03:13,519 --> 00:03:20,319
is that it's all direct attached you just grab your network cable plug it

44
00:03:18,800 --> 00:03:26,400
directly into the machine you want to edit on and bam it works just like usb

45
00:03:23,360 --> 00:03:28,640
with no network switch required even for

46
00:03:26,400 --> 00:03:34,799
multiple users but being the reasonable person i am

47
00:03:32,799 --> 00:03:39,360
i just can't fathom why anybody would want a setup where you have more than

48
00:03:36,879 --> 00:03:44,879
say two or three people editing off of the same box and you don't just run a

49
00:03:41,840 --> 00:03:48,080
network switch microtech even has a 12

50
00:03:44,879 --> 00:03:50,159
port 10 gig switch for only 500

51
00:03:48,080 --> 00:03:56,799
so for the amount that i'm paying for lumaforge's special sauce here i could

52
00:03:52,959 --> 00:03:58,959
buy a pallet of 10 gig switches but okay

53
00:03:56,799 --> 00:04:03,680
i'm gonna put myself in the shoes or sandals as it were of the person who

54
00:04:01,519 --> 00:04:08,720
thinks that that's an ideal workflow and i'm going to grab two Intel quad port 10

55
00:04:06,480 --> 00:04:15,040
gigabit network cards that gives us a total in this system of 10 10 gig ports

56
00:04:12,400 --> 00:04:18,400
for storage lumaforge uses zfs a file system and volume manager wrapped into

57
00:04:17,040 --> 00:04:23,759
one that they've got running inside centos a Linux based operating system

58
00:04:21,359 --> 00:04:28,320
like last time though we are taking a different route and we're gonna go with

59
00:04:25,440 --> 00:04:34,000
truenas core formerly known as freeness which also uses zfs as its file system

60
00:04:31,520 --> 00:04:38,160
but has a more user-friendly management interface based on their specs page it

61
00:04:36,160 --> 00:04:45,040
appears that lumaforge is using groups or v-devs of 10 drives running raid z2

62
00:04:42,800 --> 00:04:51,120
what that means is each group of 10 drives in your jellyfish can sustain

63
00:04:48,880 --> 00:04:55,520
two drive failures before you actually lose any data and since they have 20 12

64
00:04:53,600 --> 00:04:59,520
terabyte drives on the terabyte model that we're trying to

65
00:04:56,800 --> 00:05:04,720
replicate we could suffer up to four total drive failures before we actually

66
00:05:01,759 --> 00:05:10,400
lost anything that is as long as they failed two in each group if we lost them

67
00:05:07,680 --> 00:05:15,360
like this all right we'd be plumb out of luck on all the

68
00:05:13,440 --> 00:05:20,080
data on these drives we're not too worried about that though

69
00:05:17,199 --> 00:05:24,320
because seagate sent over 22 of their exos 12 terabyte enterprise drives which

70
00:05:22,880 --> 00:05:29,039
boasts two and a half million hours meantime between failure low power

71
00:05:26,320 --> 00:05:34,880
consumption and excellent resistance to vibrations from nearby drives which

72
00:05:32,160 --> 00:05:38,720
there's gonna be uh a few of them also the five-year warranty is a nice touch

73
00:05:37,039 --> 00:05:44,000
that's a seagate part number yeah but hp enterprise model hp

74
00:05:40,720 --> 00:05:47,120
enterprise now funny story we would have

75
00:05:44,000 --> 00:05:49,680
actually used seagate's ironwolf pro

76
00:05:47,120 --> 00:05:54,800
consumer grade nas drives but at the time of filming these exos enterprise

77
00:05:52,400 --> 00:05:58,800
drives were actually cheaper so uh

78
00:05:56,000 --> 00:06:04,319
weird flex seagate but okay now according to lumaforge's

79
00:06:00,880 --> 00:06:07,680
website the performance boost package

80
00:06:04,319 --> 00:06:09,080
doubles the stock 128 gigs of RAM so

81
00:06:07,680 --> 00:06:15,120
we're gonna be running 256 gigs of 3200 megahertz crucial

82
00:06:12,720 --> 00:06:20,319
registered ecc memory in eight channel mode that should give us a really nice

83
00:06:17,440 --> 00:06:24,240
balance of cost and performance and we haven't had a single stick of this stuff

84
00:06:22,160 --> 00:06:28,319
fail in our last handful of deployments so we absolutely love it so far

85
00:06:27,120 --> 00:06:34,479
as for the ingest capacitor well that's a fancy

86
00:06:31,120 --> 00:06:37,280
name for a right cache which zfs calls a

87
00:06:34,479 --> 00:06:41,120
slog this limited amount of faster solid-state storage prevents the hard

88
00:06:39,199 --> 00:06:45,360
drives in the array from getting bogged down when data is getting written to the

89
00:06:43,280 --> 00:06:48,960
machine at the same time that somebody is trying to edit off it like for

90
00:06:47,280 --> 00:06:53,680
example when you're ingesting footage off of your cameras now we don't know

91
00:06:51,120 --> 00:06:58,400
how big the drive they use is but we figured a two terabyte NVMe drive from

92
00:06:56,240 --> 00:07:02,960
saverin would be plenty for most ingest workflows given that camera media larger

93
00:07:01,039 --> 00:07:07,680
than that is pretty unusual as for read caching you see i'm holding two drives

94
00:07:04,639 --> 00:07:09,840
here zfs utilizes something called arc

95
00:07:07,680 --> 00:07:14,960
which is a portion of the system memory that acts as a live cache for frequently

96
00:07:12,800 --> 00:07:20,240
or recently used files problem is when it comes to media work

97
00:07:17,199 --> 00:07:24,080
they're full of large files and you can

98
00:07:20,240 --> 00:07:26,319
have enormous projects so even our 256

99
00:07:24,080 --> 00:07:29,199
gigabytes of RAM could be easily filled up

100
00:07:27,199 --> 00:07:34,400
thankfully there's a special feature called level two arc that allows us to

101
00:07:31,680 --> 00:07:39,759
add a second NVMe drive that will be a well slower than memory but still faster

102
00:07:37,520 --> 00:07:44,000
than hard drive caching layer before you start reading directly off of the

103
00:07:41,360 --> 00:07:47,599
spinning rust lumaforge doesn't actually include this in their systems but since

104
00:07:46,080 --> 00:07:52,400
the motherboard that we chose has an extra m.2 slot and we have

105
00:07:50,560 --> 00:07:56,080
lots of budget left over to play with we figured hey

106
00:07:54,160 --> 00:08:00,560
how many times do you live however many times you live it's not

107
00:07:58,240 --> 00:08:05,120
enough times to risk downtime or data loss due to a power supply failure

108
00:08:02,960 --> 00:08:10,560
that's why we actually deviated from the jellyfish's original design

109
00:08:07,520 --> 00:08:14,319
this right here is the twins pro 700

110
00:08:10,560 --> 00:08:16,800
watt from fsp and it is super cool

111
00:08:14,319 --> 00:08:22,240
like the 1000 watt consumer grade unit that lumaforge uses it fits in any

112
00:08:19,039 --> 00:08:26,240
standard atx case but unlike that one it

113
00:08:22,240 --> 00:08:29,840
can sustain a complete failure of one of

114
00:08:26,240 --> 00:08:32,240
the two redundant power supply modules

115
00:08:29,840 --> 00:08:36,719
that goes into the back like so another nice benefit of this thing is

116
00:08:34,320 --> 00:08:40,640
that it actually allows you to plug into two independent power sources if you had

117
00:08:39,200 --> 00:08:46,399
say for example a ups and a

118
00:08:43,440 --> 00:08:49,360
just direct into mains power one really you should just have two

119
00:08:47,600 --> 00:08:52,480
ups's though and the best part about this thing is

120
00:08:50,880 --> 00:08:57,920
that we were really concerned about noise but it ended up being well not

121
00:08:55,440 --> 00:09:02,000
quiet but reasonable enough that you could have it in an open office space

122
00:08:59,680 --> 00:09:04,240
and it wouldn't be a huge nuisance now

123
00:09:02,800 --> 00:09:08,160
obviously if you're going to have your jellyfish fryer like

124
00:09:06,000 --> 00:09:12,399
on your desk right next to your head you might want to choose something else but

125
00:09:10,160 --> 00:09:16,560
never fear because you can afford literally the most expensive enthusiast

126
00:09:14,800 --> 00:09:21,440
power supply on the market with all the money you saved and then you can go get

127
00:09:18,959 --> 00:09:25,200
it gold plated at a local shop one optional upgrade would be to pull

128
00:09:23,120 --> 00:09:29,519
out these hot swappable sleds and replace the sunon fans that ship with

129
00:09:27,200 --> 00:09:32,959
this case something like a Noctua industrial ppc might have a longer

130
00:09:31,839 --> 00:09:38,000
lifetime but for our purposes it's not like sunon

131
00:09:35,680 --> 00:09:41,600
is a bad fan manufacturer and given that we're going to be putting it in a server

132
00:09:39,360 --> 00:09:45,040
rack anyway we're just not that concerned about noise and the

133
00:09:43,120 --> 00:09:48,959
convenience of having these plug right into these little daughter boards that

134
00:09:46,399 --> 00:09:52,480
go into the drive back plane is pretty good one thing that's a little funky

135
00:09:50,640 --> 00:09:58,000
about our configuration is that this power supply has fixed cables on it and

136
00:09:55,360 --> 00:10:02,320
unfortunately it's only got i think like two molex connectors well we need a

137
00:10:00,560 --> 00:10:06,080
total of uh 10 for all of the hard drives that we

138
00:10:04,560 --> 00:10:11,839
have installed in this thing so what we'll be doing is adapting SATA to molex

139
00:10:09,600 --> 00:10:16,000
because it's the only connector on here that's still got 5 volt built into it

140
00:10:14,079 --> 00:10:19,040
otherwise we'd love to use the pci express connectors which you don't need

141
00:10:17,360 --> 00:10:24,320
in a storage server now that doesn't sound great but as long

142
00:10:22,160 --> 00:10:28,560
as you pay attention to the max amperage that these cables and these connectors

143
00:10:26,079 --> 00:10:32,800
are rated for it should be okay as for the rest of the machine we chose AMD's

144
00:10:30,560 --> 00:10:37,200
epic platform due to its excellent price performance and feature set which is

145
00:10:35,519 --> 00:10:41,600
basically everything specifically we've gone with a 24 core

146
00:10:39,680 --> 00:10:47,680
epic 7302p cooled by Noctua's adorable little nhu9

147
00:10:44,880 --> 00:10:52,880
sp3 which is one of the only coolers specifically engineered to cover the

148
00:10:49,680 --> 00:10:55,920
massive heat spreader on an epic CPU

149
00:10:52,880 --> 00:10:58,160
for our board we've chosen asrock rack's

150
00:10:55,920 --> 00:11:02,000
epic d82t this board is great for a number of

151
00:10:59,600 --> 00:11:05,360
reasons i mean just look at all that expansion

152
00:11:03,360 --> 00:11:09,920
it's freaking crazy have i mentioned by the way how much i

153
00:11:07,040 --> 00:11:14,480
love epic because thanks to epic we've got 128

154
00:11:11,680 --> 00:11:19,760
total lanes of pci express to tap in that gives us all the slots we need for

155
00:11:17,279 --> 00:11:25,440
our hba which is what we plug all our drives into our 10 gigabit mix including

156
00:11:22,959 --> 00:11:30,000
the two that are already on board our dual m.2s for those caching drives i

157
00:11:27,760 --> 00:11:35,200
mentioned before it's even got two mini sas hd ports over here that gives us

158
00:11:32,560 --> 00:11:40,959
another eight drives so we only need a 16 drive host bus adapter in our case an

159
00:11:37,920 --> 00:11:43,040
lsi 9305 16i check this out too it's

160
00:11:40,959 --> 00:11:47,519
even got a couple of oculink ports so that is eight more lanes of pci express

161
00:11:45,920 --> 00:11:50,560
down there this thing's awesome i think the only

162
00:11:49,200 --> 00:11:56,000
thing that could make it better is if it was pci express gen 4 which

163
00:11:53,279 --> 00:11:59,040
naturally asrock rack has it's just not something that we would get a

164
00:11:56,959 --> 00:12:02,800
performance benefit from so we are using the gen 3 one this is fun while i was

165
00:12:01,279 --> 00:12:06,880
plugging power into the motherboard i noticed that this power supply has a usb

166
00:12:05,279 --> 00:12:10,959
connector coming out of it turns out that fsp has a little tool it

167
00:12:09,279 --> 00:12:14,160
only runs in Windows unfortunately so we can't use it but they have a little tool

168
00:12:12,480 --> 00:12:18,560
that allows you to monitor temperatures fan speeds all that kind of cool stuff

169
00:12:16,399 --> 00:12:23,360
just off of a usb header for boot drives we used a couple of

170
00:12:20,160 --> 00:12:25,680
kingston 240 gig ssds and you can use

171
00:12:23,360 --> 00:12:29,200
basically anything for this the one thing i'd recommend is having two of

172
00:12:27,600 --> 00:12:34,240
them so that in the event of a boot drive failure you have a live backup of

173
00:12:30,959 --> 00:12:35,279
it ready to go okay not backup but copy

174
00:12:34,240 --> 00:12:38,720
there and i guess that's pretty much it isn't

175
00:12:37,519 --> 00:12:48,720
it yeah we're just gonna put up do it 24 cores 256 gigs of RAM 10 10

176
00:12:44,800 --> 00:12:51,760
gigabit network ports 24 drives 700

177
00:12:48,720 --> 00:12:54,399
watts of redundant power and a mirrored

178
00:12:51,760 --> 00:12:58,160
240 gig boot drive for one-fifth of the price now we just got to boot this puppy

179
00:12:56,959 --> 00:13:01,680
up ah um

180
00:13:00,160 --> 00:13:05,200
there's probably another cable oh look at another cable we've already installed

181
00:13:03,680 --> 00:13:08,959
trunas so we're just going to boot right up to that if you guys want to know how

182
00:13:06,959 --> 00:13:12,160
to install it patrick from serve the home did a great guide last time we

183
00:13:10,800 --> 00:13:16,720
collaborated so we're going to link that in the video description now that's a

184
00:13:14,000 --> 00:13:20,800
lot of network interfaces look at that 10 10

185
00:13:18,240 --> 00:13:23,279
that's 10 gigabits 10

186
00:13:21,600 --> 00:13:27,279
gig we could put them all together for 100 maybe yeah we could

187
00:13:24,880 --> 00:13:31,200
100 gigabytes would be a big nicktoon that would be way smarter if we just put

188
00:13:29,360 --> 00:13:35,839
100 gigabit nick in here and then a switch and still had lots of money left

189
00:13:33,040 --> 00:13:39,839
over but whatever we're direct attached now that we're fired up we're in that

190
00:13:37,440 --> 00:13:42,560
beautiful little web ui actually this has improved a lot since the last time i

191
00:13:41,440 --> 00:13:48,040
looked at it there's all those interfaces there's those power supplies

192
00:13:48,800 --> 00:13:53,600
by far the loudest fans in the system are the ones in the power supplies

193
00:13:52,160 --> 00:13:57,600
because they're just these little tiny things but if you're not into it

194
00:13:56,160 --> 00:14:01,680
just swap it out for something else because hey you built it you designed it

195
00:13:59,839 --> 00:14:05,440
you can do it the way you like so we've got two groups of 10

196
00:14:03,680 --> 00:14:09,199
and then like i showed you guys earlier we could lose

197
00:14:06,880 --> 00:14:13,120
up to four before we actually lose any data and in the true nash dashboard of

198
00:14:11,120 --> 00:14:17,279
course we can see our two raid z2s both with 10 drives and on the bottom we have

199
00:14:15,279 --> 00:14:21,519
our log drive as well as our cache drive so cache would be the level two arc and

200
00:14:19,440 --> 00:14:25,680
then log is the s log like we mentioned before

201
00:14:22,800 --> 00:14:31,839
i like calling it a slog slog it's gotta slog through those

202
00:14:28,560 --> 00:14:31,839
index entries

203
00:14:32,320 --> 00:14:38,240
all right slog through them what we're going to show you guys now because

204
00:14:36,560 --> 00:14:41,920
really the main point of this isn't how to set up truenose we want to show you

205
00:14:40,079 --> 00:14:47,120
guys how we're going to do the direct attach special magic that jellyfish

206
00:14:44,560 --> 00:14:50,480
ships so we've got a test system right here on our test cart that's got a 10

207
00:14:48,720 --> 00:14:53,839
gig network card in it we're gonna go ahead and run the oh my god that's not

208
00:14:52,160 --> 00:14:58,480
screwed into anything did you just pull it out uh well i didn't not pull it out

209
00:14:56,399 --> 00:15:02,079
you didn't not pull it out what does that even mean

210
00:15:00,320 --> 00:15:06,240
it means we're about to find out smart guy ah

211
00:15:04,160 --> 00:15:11,680
it's probably fine it's hot swap right you tried PCIe hot top right ah

212
00:15:08,800 --> 00:15:15,440
is that the right HDMI i think so well it was on before oh crap well you

213
00:15:13,839 --> 00:15:20,240
didn't screw the thing in well it didn't have a thing and we're just trying to do it quickly right here you could just

214
00:15:18,240 --> 00:15:23,519
move it i wasn't expecting you to just yoink all right i didn't he's a yoinker

215
00:15:22,320 --> 00:15:28,320
man you just you got to be careful around this well

216
00:15:26,000 --> 00:15:32,880
Linus tries to fix that um we're on the trunas side and basically all you need

217
00:15:30,240 --> 00:15:37,600
to do to set up a direct attach setup like the fancy jellyfish software would

218
00:15:35,279 --> 00:15:40,880
do is essentially just assign an ip address to both interfaces on either

219
00:15:39,360 --> 00:15:44,480
side and then the computer will facilitate transfer between the two

220
00:15:42,399 --> 00:15:47,120
machines in what's known as an unrouted subnet there's no router that's

221
00:15:45,760 --> 00:15:52,959
controlling the packets it's just the systems telling each other where it needs to go so we're in trunas i've set

222
00:15:50,480 --> 00:15:57,120
up 10.96.0.10 for this computer and we've got to make

223
00:15:54,560 --> 00:16:00,639
sure our subnet is the same so dash 24 and then on that side we'll do

224
00:15:58,720 --> 00:16:04,399
10.96.0.20 and you can set these to realistically

225
00:16:02,320 --> 00:16:08,880
whatever you want click apply there

226
00:16:06,720 --> 00:16:13,040
test changes oh man trueness has a super nice thing basically when you're doing

227
00:16:10,639 --> 00:16:17,360
network changes on trinas it will like try them for 60 seconds and if you don't

228
00:16:15,279 --> 00:16:20,800
confirm it in the dashboard it will just revert back to the way it was you can't

229
00:16:19,120 --> 00:16:24,000
screw it up and like make it so you have to boot it into recovery mode or

230
00:16:22,480 --> 00:16:26,880
something to change the settings and then on our Windows computer side we

231
00:16:25,680 --> 00:16:31,440
have set up the same thing but 10.96.0.20

232
00:16:28,959 --> 00:16:36,560
same subnet 2552.525 which is the same as 24. we're just gonna click okay there

233
00:16:34,320 --> 00:16:39,839
close that'll start to do its thing and then we'll just apply on this side

234
00:16:38,000 --> 00:16:43,279
and we should be pretty much good to go funny story that machine doesn't have

235
00:16:41,680 --> 00:16:46,800
premiere on it and it's actually faster for us to just go get a longer Ethernet

236
00:16:44,959 --> 00:16:50,959
cable and plug into one of our editing stations so we're just going to redo the

237
00:16:48,160 --> 00:16:54,000
ip setup over there one moment please after a quick reboot to get the network

238
00:16:52,480 --> 00:16:59,519
share remapped properly you can see we've got our j drive which is our

239
00:16:56,240 --> 00:17:01,920
jellyfish fryer and boom we are video

240
00:16:59,519 --> 00:17:06,319
editing off of our jellyfish fryer of course what we need to know now is

241
00:17:04,000 --> 00:17:10,319
how's it handling it and for that naturally we turn to pulseway

242
00:17:08,160 --> 00:17:14,480
unfortunately pulseway does not yet have support for freebsd based operating

243
00:17:12,160 --> 00:17:18,559
systems like truenas but we use it for all kinds of server related things here

244
00:17:16,640 --> 00:17:22,959
at the office and actually even ones that aren't necessarily server related

245
00:17:20,880 --> 00:17:26,480
with pulseway you can monitor all of your systems through a simple dashboard

246
00:17:24,799 --> 00:17:30,080
that's available right on your mobile device from here you can see i've

247
00:17:28,319 --> 00:17:34,559
created a little sandbox account with the machine behind me and one of our

248
00:17:32,080 --> 00:17:39,200
servers i can monitor everything from system resources like available memory

249
00:17:36,799 --> 00:17:43,600
or if we're running out of storage to patch policies to even remoting into

250
00:17:41,600 --> 00:17:47,600
these machines and taking control of them with pulseway you can also create

251
00:17:45,600 --> 00:17:50,880
custom scripts that simplify your it management and if Windows updates are

252
00:17:49,760 --> 00:17:54,640
our pain in your butt you can even manage those remotely and schedule them

253
00:17:52,799 --> 00:17:58,400
as well and if you look around here in the editing den

254
00:17:56,559 --> 00:18:02,720
we've had to do a lot more remote management than usual with a bunch of

255
00:18:00,400 --> 00:18:06,240
our staff working from home so try out pulseplay it's available for most

256
00:18:04,320 --> 00:18:10,080
operating systems including Windows Linux and mac and it's so powerful that

257
00:18:08,720 --> 00:18:14,160
i'm always learning about new functionality apparently you can use it

258
00:18:12,160 --> 00:18:18,000
to send a wake wake-on lan ping like a magic packet to one of the machines on

259
00:18:16,000 --> 00:18:22,000
your network if for whatever reason it's stuck in sleep and you have no way of

260
00:18:20,559 --> 00:18:28,240
waking it up because you're halfway around the world that's cool stuff even for home users so

261
00:18:25,840 --> 00:18:33,919
it works great and how much did we pay overall before tax including everything

262
00:18:31,360 --> 00:18:40,400
we've currently got deployed around 12 000 us dollars that's a lot of money but

263
00:18:36,720 --> 00:18:42,480
it is nowhere near the 58 000 that

264
00:18:40,400 --> 00:18:47,440
lumaforge charges for their equivalent and before you ask yes we also accounted

265
00:18:45,600 --> 00:18:51,919
for the two cold spare drives that aren't even installed that lumaforge

266
00:18:49,520 --> 00:18:55,600
does include with the jellyfish we could even comfortably step up to

267
00:18:53,520 --> 00:18:59,760
ironwolf pros which aren't enterprise per se but do have three

268
00:18:58,000 --> 00:19:03,280
years of data recovery included if you're into that kind of peace of mind

269
00:19:01,520 --> 00:19:07,919
thing so yeah i can understand the appeal of a

270
00:19:05,679 --> 00:19:12,240
solution that is all pre-set up for you and has some fancy software for

271
00:19:09,679 --> 00:19:17,679
connecting to it or whatever but for the price difference you could quite

272
00:19:14,080 --> 00:19:20,400
literally hire an it person for like

273
00:19:17,679 --> 00:19:24,240
half a year to spec this thing build it for you deploy it and show you how to

274
00:19:22,720 --> 00:19:28,720
use it i mean you'd probably have some money left over to send your team on a nice vacation i see how you snuck that

275
00:19:27,360 --> 00:19:33,760
in there Jake that's that's good that's a good one you know we can't do workation this year as for us this

276
00:19:32,000 --> 00:19:39,200
machine is destined to become the new local backup server for our NVMe editing

277
00:19:36,080 --> 00:19:41,440
machine aka new new wanik so wanna go

278
00:19:39,200 --> 00:19:46,480
check out that video if you haven't seen it yet and go check out pulseway

279
00:19:44,000 --> 00:19:51,120
pulseway is absolutely fantastic whether you want to simplify your it management

280
00:19:48,799 --> 00:19:55,440
tasks monitor your servers remote desktop in apply patches pulseway has

281
00:19:54,080 --> 00:19:59,039
got you covered and you can do everything from their mobile app
