1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:04,840 This is William Osmond. And whether he's building a freaking DIY x-ray machine 2 00:00:04,840 --> 00:00:09,120 in his basement or turning Simone Yetch's car into a giant computer mouse. 3 00:00:09,120 --> 00:00:12,520 Yes, you heard that right. He's clearly a pretty smart cookie. 4 00:00:12,520 --> 00:00:17,340 So Galaxy Brain, in fact, that he created an event called OpenSauce 5 00:00:17,340 --> 00:00:20,840 where he and all the other Galaxy Brains can hang out and do whatever it is 6 00:00:20,840 --> 00:00:24,040 that a bunch of nerds in a large room together do. We're gonna find out soon 7 00:00:24,040 --> 00:00:28,000 since some of that stuff gets filmed and will be put on Sauce Plus. 8 00:00:28,000 --> 00:00:32,080 But here's the thing. That requires storage, a lot of storage. 9 00:00:32,080 --> 00:00:36,680 And we all know that building a NAS or network attached storage is way harder 10 00:00:36,680 --> 00:00:40,320 than building an x-ray machine. Is this it? No. 11 00:00:40,320 --> 00:00:43,720 See, I was being facetious before. Normally building a NAS is actually super easy 12 00:00:43,720 --> 00:00:46,960 because it would look like this and you would just slot the drives in the front. 13 00:00:46,960 --> 00:00:50,420 But when the customer asks for it to be portable 14 00:00:50,420 --> 00:00:54,040 and gives you a month to do it and then asks you to build two of them, 15 00:00:54,040 --> 00:00:58,620 sorry, then it gets more difficult. Actually, I lied, that is one of them. 16 00:00:58,620 --> 00:01:01,220 But the other one is going in here. Come, come see. 17 00:01:03,020 --> 00:01:06,360 Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! 18 00:01:06,360 --> 00:01:08,860 Oh! Oh! Oh! 19 00:01:10,780 --> 00:01:14,180 I know you've built robots and stuff but have you ever actually built a computer? 20 00:01:14,180 --> 00:01:17,980 I'm building a new computer. Yes, you say that like it's harder than building a robot. 21 00:01:17,980 --> 00:01:21,820 Well, no, not that it's harder. I just thought it would be beneath you to even bother. 22 00:01:21,820 --> 00:01:26,340 No. Okay. Have you ever built a NAS? Just sliding hard drives into a Synology account 23 00:01:26,340 --> 00:01:30,120 is building a NAS. Oh! Sure. But we're not building a NAS. 24 00:01:30,120 --> 00:01:35,600 All right, network attached storage. We're building an anywhere storage server. 25 00:01:35,600 --> 00:01:38,680 Ass. Ass? Right. 26 00:01:38,680 --> 00:01:42,600 And one of the most important things for ass is that it's solid. 27 00:01:42,600 --> 00:01:45,760 Solid ass! Well, you don't want liquid. 28 00:01:45,760 --> 00:01:50,680 That's a lot of solid ass in your hand. I've never seen that much in one place. 29 00:01:50,680 --> 00:01:55,680 To make sure that this portable ass would be as robust as possible, 30 00:01:55,680 --> 00:02:00,680 we opted for a set of four Keoksia CD6 data center SSDs. 31 00:02:00,840 --> 00:02:05,840 Each of these holds a whopping 15.36 terabytes of data. 32 00:02:06,480 --> 00:02:10,440 So do the math and you've got 45 terabytes of usable data 33 00:02:10,440 --> 00:02:14,440 and lightning fast. This is cool. This is not ass. 34 00:02:14,440 --> 00:02:17,680 No, it is ass. Oh yeah, it is ass. Anywhere storage server. 35 00:02:17,680 --> 00:02:21,240 It's like a professional term in this context. You can't be like, hee hee. It's not funny. 36 00:02:21,240 --> 00:02:25,600 No, this is not funny. This is serious business. Serious ass. Serious solid ass. 37 00:02:26,600 --> 00:02:31,200 So you can buy things like this that hold these special NVMe drives 38 00:02:31,200 --> 00:02:34,760 except the one for PCAE Gen 4, not even Gen 5. 39 00:02:34,760 --> 00:02:38,400 It's 500 US dollars. Just for the case? Just for the thing? 40 00:02:38,400 --> 00:02:42,080 Well, for the case and also the board at the back. Yeah, the backplane. 41 00:02:42,080 --> 00:02:45,560 We're not going to use a board at the back. We're going to use cables though. So that's a lot cheaper 42 00:02:45,560 --> 00:02:49,600 and we didn't want to spend the money on you. No, I understand. I wouldn't spend the money on me either. 43 00:02:49,600 --> 00:02:52,760 Yeah, that's me, ass man. Here you go. 44 00:02:52,760 --> 00:02:57,640 And a backpack? LTT Stradoc. Oh God, yes. LTTStor.com, you can get, what is this? 45 00:02:57,640 --> 00:03:01,000 Backpack? Commuter backpack. Commuter backpack? Can we get it right now? 46 00:03:01,000 --> 00:03:04,680 Yeah. Right now, for only 169 dollars. 47 00:03:04,680 --> 00:03:08,600 I'll just AI dug your voice. Yo, wait, that's sick. 48 00:03:08,600 --> 00:03:12,560 You can see when your bits are missing. Ha ha ha ha. 49 00:03:12,560 --> 00:03:13,400 Will it work? 50 00:03:16,920 --> 00:03:20,720 Hell yeah. Jesus. He broke it. 51 00:03:20,720 --> 00:03:24,360 It does eventually come out. Now he's going to do revision 43. 52 00:03:24,400 --> 00:03:28,920 This is super cool. It's a server motherboard, but it uses socket AM5, 53 00:03:28,920 --> 00:03:32,960 meaning that you can put a regular consumer chip in it. What's the difference between a server motherboard 54 00:03:32,960 --> 00:03:38,960 and a regular motherboard? Fundamentally, not that much, other than that they have an extra network port right here 55 00:03:38,960 --> 00:03:43,520 that is designed for remote access. And I can reboot the system remotely 56 00:03:43,520 --> 00:03:46,880 or I could even flash my BIOS over a network connection 57 00:03:46,880 --> 00:03:51,920 because a server motherboard is designed to sit in a data center where realistically the administrator of it 58 00:03:51,920 --> 00:03:55,600 never actually physically touches the thing in their entire life. 59 00:03:55,600 --> 00:03:59,080 This is the motherboard tray. Nice. Cute, right? 60 00:03:59,080 --> 00:04:02,240 Did you print it vertically? No, flat. 61 00:04:02,240 --> 00:04:08,360 No, see, you printed it in like the weakest orientation. Listen, if it breaks, don't call me. 62 00:04:08,360 --> 00:04:12,560 Here's the CPU we went with for you. It's a Ryzen 9 9950X3D. 63 00:04:12,560 --> 00:04:15,760 Basically the fastest consumer CPU on the market. 64 00:04:15,760 --> 00:04:19,840 16 cores, 3D vCache. We're probably going to have to run it in like eco mode 65 00:04:19,840 --> 00:04:25,200 because even though the X3D chips do have lower TDPs than their non-X3D counterparts, 66 00:04:25,200 --> 00:04:29,000 this is not exactly the world's best ventilated case, so. 67 00:04:29,000 --> 00:04:33,160 Another thing that ASS is going to have in it is a network switch because I was told that multiple computers 68 00:04:33,160 --> 00:04:37,120 need to connect to this. ASS, which is a Unify Pro XG8 PoE. 69 00:04:37,120 --> 00:04:41,720 It's a eight port, 10 gig PoE plus plus, plus two SFP plus 10 gig. 70 00:04:41,720 --> 00:04:45,920 So we get 10, 10 gigabit ports. And we needed a way to pass the Ethernet cables 71 00:04:45,920 --> 00:04:51,440 out of inside. That's going to go on the outside. And then it has to put the little Ethernet guys in there. 72 00:04:51,440 --> 00:04:55,680 What if we glued the opposite polarity so that it won't close? It just constantly flips open. 73 00:04:55,680 --> 00:05:00,040 Oh wait, I have to deal with it. I don't want to do it. Amazing to me that in a world 74 00:05:00,040 --> 00:05:03,920 where channels like yours exist, we get a hard time from our audience 75 00:05:03,920 --> 00:05:07,840 about doing things too janky or temporary. Why set the bar low from the beginning? 76 00:05:07,840 --> 00:05:10,920 Have we ever actually explained the point of this? 77 00:05:10,920 --> 00:05:15,160 The Pelican case. It's a portable rugged NAS that can be taken to open source. 78 00:05:15,160 --> 00:05:18,360 Okay, I'm going to give you a task. We got the Minisform MS-A2. 79 00:05:18,360 --> 00:05:24,000 This is a very small, but very powerful computer. It has a 16-core CPU in it, not unlike that one, 80 00:05:24,000 --> 00:05:27,640 but just more power efficient. This is going to be the hard drive NAS, 81 00:05:27,640 --> 00:05:31,280 but the problem is these get hot and they need cooling. 82 00:05:31,280 --> 00:05:35,600 So your options are either we fit a specifically portioned fan right here 83 00:05:35,600 --> 00:05:38,640 that already is wired, but you need to cut this heat sink, 84 00:05:38,640 --> 00:05:42,440 or you design a thing to put a fan on the outside. 85 00:05:42,440 --> 00:05:45,600 And it blows down on the card over the thing. Yeah, we'll trim it. 86 00:05:45,600 --> 00:05:48,960 We'll cut the heat sink. We should put some stuff in this Pelican case, right? 87 00:05:48,960 --> 00:05:54,160 That guy? Boom. Just kidding, you got to take it apart first. 88 00:05:54,160 --> 00:05:58,360 Sorry, I'm just very distracted by them. Oh, that's way worse. 89 00:05:58,360 --> 00:06:04,280 Fine, we'll go outside. Just go to the shop. Honestly, I would spend most of my time back here 90 00:06:04,280 --> 00:06:08,040 if I was them. This place is great. There's bushes with thorns. 91 00:06:08,040 --> 00:06:11,320 There's rat traps. There's greenery. 92 00:06:13,960 --> 00:06:18,360 All I need is 10 more minutes and I'll have sod through this heat sink. 93 00:06:18,360 --> 00:06:20,880 I can't believe they don't have better tools. Just go to the shop. 94 00:06:22,160 --> 00:06:27,680 Maybe 20 minutes. Okay, so you have mounts. Prepare to be mounted. These are polycarbonate carbon fiber. 95 00:06:27,680 --> 00:06:31,920 It's incredibly high temperature resistant. This can handle fresh off the printer 96 00:06:31,920 --> 00:06:35,240 like 100 degrees Celsius. 110 degrees Celsius maybe. 97 00:06:35,240 --> 00:06:39,560 And if you anneal it, apparently you can do like 130 degrees Celsius, 98 00:06:39,560 --> 00:06:43,120 which is pretty hot for plastic. Are you guys doing okay out here? 99 00:06:43,120 --> 00:06:46,720 Oh, I'm doing great. So you found a scrap piece of lumber. 100 00:06:46,720 --> 00:06:51,240 Yeah, in the backyard. And I'm in nature right now. 101 00:06:51,240 --> 00:06:54,400 I feel like a man. Jesus, you butchered that thing. 102 00:06:54,400 --> 00:06:57,800 Whoa, that is not straight. Oh my God. 103 00:06:57,800 --> 00:07:01,800 Why did we let him do that? You see how when I move it around, it reflects like a mirror? 104 00:07:01,800 --> 00:07:03,680 I'd rather have Microsoft Edge. 105 00:07:06,800 --> 00:07:11,600 That's how much paste I've put on it. That is a f***ing lot of thermos. 106 00:07:11,600 --> 00:07:15,960 It's a lot? That's a f***ing lot of thermos. That might actually be a problem. 107 00:07:15,960 --> 00:07:20,320 This was smart. You picked the not bad side. You see, look, he undid his mistake. 108 00:07:20,320 --> 00:07:23,840 He controls Ede that. Oh, they're gone. 109 00:07:23,840 --> 00:07:27,600 Does everybody happen like this? Yeah. 110 00:07:27,600 --> 00:07:31,440 Just sort of a disaster and the editors have to like figure out how to put it together. 111 00:07:31,440 --> 00:07:36,120 Yeah. Boom. The first vibration mount is in. 112 00:07:36,120 --> 00:07:41,760 I have good news and bad news. I know what the bad news is. The bad news is I definitely didn't have the drill bit 113 00:07:41,760 --> 00:07:46,160 straight when I was marking these holes. Oh my God. The good news is I can just kind of stretch 114 00:07:46,160 --> 00:07:50,240 the ass a little bit. Yeah, put your finger in there, Jake. 115 00:07:50,240 --> 00:07:54,080 Jesus. It's not that straight. Dude, it's so crooked. 116 00:07:54,080 --> 00:07:57,480 Yeah. You really did a bad job. He's supposed to like take this on an airplane. 117 00:07:57,480 --> 00:08:01,200 Yeah, exactly. Dude, if it's a luggage handler's handling, it's totally fine. 118 00:08:01,200 --> 00:08:04,400 Look, it's not going anywhere. That's the whole point, Jake. 119 00:08:04,400 --> 00:08:07,560 It's fine. See? It looks fine. 120 00:08:08,920 --> 00:08:12,360 Totally fine. I can't believe you've done that to my ass like that. 121 00:08:12,360 --> 00:08:15,720 Did it shake a little bit? Oh, yeah. It did shake a little bit. 122 00:08:15,720 --> 00:08:19,280 That's cool. Now, of course, if we're putting a computer in here, we also need a computer power supply. 123 00:08:19,280 --> 00:08:22,360 And that's where this HD Plex gallium nitride 500 watt 124 00:08:22,360 --> 00:08:26,280 power supply is going to come into play. It's very small, which is pretty much why I'm using it. 125 00:08:26,280 --> 00:08:30,160 And this will just screw into the side like there or something like that. Dude, that thing looks mint. 126 00:08:30,160 --> 00:08:34,560 From one second to the next, he's like, that looks terrible. 127 00:08:34,560 --> 00:08:39,000 That looks ass. That looks so crooked. And then the next second, he's like, oh, that looks mint. 128 00:08:39,000 --> 00:08:42,200 No, I didn't say mint. You literally, you were recording. 129 00:08:42,200 --> 00:08:46,480 Did I say mint? Dude, that thing looks mint. Dude, that thing looks mint. 130 00:08:48,480 --> 00:08:52,320 Okay, but the real question that we need to answer 131 00:08:52,320 --> 00:08:54,200 is will this computer survive? 132 00:08:55,320 --> 00:08:58,840 Oh, did you put it in there before you did that? I heard things start moving. 133 00:08:58,840 --> 00:09:01,160 How many of these motherboards do we have? None. 134 00:09:02,960 --> 00:09:06,440 Hey, remember when I said you used the wrong screws for that switch? 135 00:09:06,440 --> 00:09:10,240 Guess what came detached? Well, not fully. You see that hole? 136 00:09:10,240 --> 00:09:13,280 You see how much it was in there and how it's not at all? 137 00:09:13,280 --> 00:09:16,800 So the PCIe bracket for this was the normal long one, 138 00:09:16,800 --> 00:09:20,560 but this computer right here, which is the... Mini's form, MSA2. 139 00:09:20,560 --> 00:09:24,800 It doesn't have the long bracket. It's like cut it and ground it down 140 00:09:24,800 --> 00:09:28,400 and now it fits perfectly. Look, you can't even tell. I'm holding up something. It looks stuck. 141 00:09:28,400 --> 00:09:33,600 Ta-da. Jake, what do you think? The cut that you did, the bracket is fantastic. 142 00:09:33,600 --> 00:09:38,160 I was trying to figure out how we were gonna make these fit together and then... 143 00:09:38,160 --> 00:09:41,640 Boom. And how is it gonna screw in? Right into the ass? 144 00:09:41,680 --> 00:09:45,000 Yeah, we could just screw that in from the other side. M3 screws? Yeah, with Loctite. 145 00:09:45,000 --> 00:09:49,040 Oh my God, that is a lot of clearance take. No, no, I'm not using it. 146 00:09:49,040 --> 00:09:52,640 This isn't even a screw. This is the date you put it in. Geez. 147 00:09:52,640 --> 00:09:54,640 They just fight the whole time. They're just fighting. 148 00:09:56,560 --> 00:09:59,920 Okay, so here's what we're gonna do. I'm gonna put this one in. 149 00:09:59,920 --> 00:10:06,040 Then I'm gonna take this one and I'm gonna kinda eyeball line up this one 150 00:10:06,040 --> 00:10:09,440 and then I'm gonna kinda eyeball line up the rest of them. 151 00:10:09,440 --> 00:10:14,960 That seems like a really good idea. So you think I'm joking? There is no way. 152 00:10:14,960 --> 00:10:18,120 Look at it this way. It's just plastic. So if we have to make another hole, 153 00:10:18,120 --> 00:10:22,160 it takes like two seconds. Yeah, and it's more airflow. 154 00:10:22,160 --> 00:10:25,320 Yeah, that's on there. I could huck this at the ground right now. 155 00:10:25,320 --> 00:10:29,040 If you do it, I feel... Oh, did you put it in there before you did that? 156 00:10:29,040 --> 00:10:33,520 I heard things start moving. I will spray paint your mouth with this. 157 00:10:33,520 --> 00:10:37,160 Wow, it's actually not even that crooked. Under normal circumstances, 158 00:10:37,160 --> 00:10:40,640 Jake and I would absolutely advocate for proper cooling for these drives, 159 00:10:40,640 --> 00:10:45,240 but based on how hard these guys are gonna be hitting them, it really might not matter. Oh, we should probably talk about open sauce. 160 00:10:45,240 --> 00:10:49,280 Oh yeah, 18 seconds. I have 18 seconds. Open sauce, it's like, 161 00:10:49,280 --> 00:10:53,280 imagine your favorite YouTube channel does an event and then they stop doing the event, 162 00:10:53,280 --> 00:10:57,680 but you still want to go to a similar event. You can come to open sauce instead. 163 00:10:57,680 --> 00:11:00,840 Dude, you like... I just stabbed him right in the heart. 164 00:11:00,840 --> 00:11:04,240 Do you see this? Look how cool this is gonna be when it's done. Boop. 165 00:11:04,240 --> 00:11:07,360 Okay, what have you done? I'm gonna do it right now. What, why not? 166 00:11:07,360 --> 00:11:11,140 With plastic dip? What are you, weak? Do you paint? No, I just sniff. 167 00:11:11,140 --> 00:11:14,940 Yeah, so she goes pretty, yep, and there you go. Oh, he's got the technique. 168 00:11:16,940 --> 00:11:20,300 That looks good. Oh, geez, dude. 169 00:11:20,300 --> 00:11:24,220 Oh my God, you got overspray. It's part of it. It's all over it. 170 00:11:24,220 --> 00:11:27,380 Okay, that does look pretty sick, though. That's sick. 171 00:11:27,380 --> 00:11:30,580 That looks like shit. Where did it get all like... 172 00:11:30,580 --> 00:11:33,580 Oh, it was... Oh my God, there's so much overspray. 173 00:11:33,580 --> 00:11:36,180 You got a paint problem, I'll solve it. Hi. 174 00:11:37,380 --> 00:11:40,940 Yeah, this is not coming off at all. What about electrosolve contact cleaner? 175 00:11:40,940 --> 00:11:44,860 You think that would work? Why is it working? Because it's a solver. 176 00:11:44,860 --> 00:11:48,940 What did they put in here? Somebody shouldn't have made a bunch of overspray. I didn't make the overspray. 177 00:11:48,940 --> 00:11:52,140 Excuse me, I didn't touch the primer. Liner and gasket. 178 00:11:52,140 --> 00:11:56,060 Is he always like this? That looks great. Actually, wait, wait, wait. 179 00:11:56,060 --> 00:11:59,380 Why did you get it down here, Linus? I didn't do that. 180 00:11:59,380 --> 00:12:04,220 That is exactly the question you need to be asking right now. I'm gonna mark the pass through for the Ethernet, 181 00:12:04,220 --> 00:12:07,740 and then we're gonna cut this out. Yeah, yeah, you're getting it. It only took all day. 182 00:12:07,740 --> 00:12:11,660 What do you cut that with? I was thinking... That exact knife? Yeah, the razor blade, yeah. 183 00:12:11,660 --> 00:12:14,660 Cut most of it out with that, and then we'll use the soldering iron 184 00:12:14,660 --> 00:12:18,340 to clean up the edges. That's psychotic, I'm just gonna use the Dremel. Oh, okay. 185 00:12:18,340 --> 00:12:24,900 Let me just try this for a second. That absolutely not gonna work. He's, but he's got to slice the whole blade. 186 00:12:28,740 --> 00:12:32,500 Do I have stuff on my face? Yeah, you got some little pieces of ass there. 187 00:12:32,500 --> 00:12:35,780 That's it, it's just some ass splatter on my face. Okay. 188 00:12:38,740 --> 00:12:41,740 Perfect, look at that. 189 00:12:41,740 --> 00:12:42,740 The ass is done. 190 00:12:44,860 --> 00:12:48,140 Of course, one of these is not aligned. 191 00:12:49,460 --> 00:12:52,660 Did you not check that? Have you ever mounted anything to anything 192 00:12:52,660 --> 00:12:58,540 in your entire life? I don't understand how you have it. I have three children. You left, that's exactly where my mind went with that too. 193 00:12:58,540 --> 00:12:59,940 Look, glue's TPU together. 194 00:13:01,940 --> 00:13:02,780 Super glue. 195 00:13:04,980 --> 00:13:08,380 The super glue totally holds the TPU together, and you can't even break it. 196 00:13:08,380 --> 00:13:11,580 Wow, actually I thought it would break. 197 00:13:11,580 --> 00:13:15,700 Oh my God. It's not breaking at all. Oh, dude, that is on there. 198 00:13:17,820 --> 00:13:21,340 You doing okay there, bud? Look, if it's any consolation, 199 00:13:21,340 --> 00:13:24,940 he's just gluing it together at this point. I need a hand with this real quick. 200 00:13:24,940 --> 00:13:28,340 I already want the hands. Okay, this is not quite what I had in mind. 201 00:13:28,340 --> 00:13:36,220 Actually, where you were was probably pretty solid. Oh, my love, my darling. 202 00:13:37,420 --> 00:13:41,420 Is there gonna be a full thing exclusive for this shoot? You are somebody to put this square one. 203 00:13:41,420 --> 00:13:45,060 Something special. Ah! Oh my God, making stuff. 204 00:13:45,060 --> 00:13:48,740 I can tell you for sure that not everything is gonna make it into the YouTube cut. 205 00:13:48,740 --> 00:13:52,620 Is it that spicy? It's not even spicy, it's just terrible. 206 00:13:52,620 --> 00:13:57,100 Half. It's half. LMG.GG slash Floatplane. 207 00:13:57,100 --> 00:14:00,300 This is a NetApp DS4243. 208 00:14:00,300 --> 00:14:04,540 It's basically a giant box that holds hard drives, but it doesn't have a computer in it really, 209 00:14:04,540 --> 00:14:09,660 so you have to supply your own computer. We got our mini's form here. We got the lovely card that you modified. 210 00:14:09,660 --> 00:14:14,380 We take a mini SAS HD cable, plug it in there to QSFP, 211 00:14:14,380 --> 00:14:20,780 and you plug it in there. Boom, now you have a server with up to 24 hard drives. 212 00:14:20,780 --> 00:14:26,900 And fortunately for you, server part deals provided you 16 of these 18 terabyte WD SAS hard drives. 213 00:14:26,900 --> 00:14:30,900 That's like 300 terabytes. That sounds about right to me. So we're gonna do something called RAID Z2. 214 00:14:30,900 --> 00:14:34,060 So we'll take our 16 drives and split them up into two groups of eight. 215 00:14:34,060 --> 00:14:38,420 And then in each group, two of the drives are parity. So you can lose two drives 216 00:14:38,420 --> 00:14:45,100 and not lose any data per each group. Meanwhile, I'm getting our last external component 217 00:14:45,100 --> 00:14:48,700 locked tighted and mounted. What do you want? I got a template for you. 218 00:14:48,700 --> 00:14:52,540 What do you want? I have a template for you. What do you want? Take it. 219 00:14:52,540 --> 00:14:56,060 Receive my template. Okay, give me your template. Receive the seed. 220 00:14:56,060 --> 00:14:59,300 Oh, that's such a weird thing to say. 221 00:14:59,300 --> 00:15:02,940 Do you like it? I do. You can put it on my ass. 222 00:15:02,940 --> 00:15:06,580 I have some pretty good news though, gentlemen. The switch totally fits now. 223 00:15:06,580 --> 00:15:10,340 Woo-hoo! With the boost now, it works. Is that what you call this? 224 00:15:10,340 --> 00:15:13,740 Yeah, the boost shoes. Lift kit? It's like for people who want to be taller, 225 00:15:13,740 --> 00:15:16,940 they wear like boost shoes. He knows exactly what I'm talking about. 226 00:15:16,940 --> 00:15:21,420 Why would you bring that up? I'm just, I didn't, I thought that was normal. 227 00:15:21,420 --> 00:15:24,620 Now I feel like an a**hole. No, I'll show you an a**hole. 228 00:15:24,620 --> 00:15:28,340 Now we'll line us in, William, work away on our lovely that. 229 00:15:28,340 --> 00:15:33,220 It's time to finish off the other server, our hard drive setup, which fortunately is way easier. 230 00:15:33,220 --> 00:15:38,020 There are a few choice upgrades, however, I've got a pair of these saverant four terabyte SSDs, 231 00:15:38,020 --> 00:15:41,140 rather than storing basically where the files are 232 00:15:41,140 --> 00:15:45,220 on the hard drives themselves. We're going to store that data on really fast SSDs. 233 00:15:45,220 --> 00:15:50,460 So when you go to navigate that big file structure of whatever files William Osman has on his NAS, 234 00:15:50,460 --> 00:15:54,700 it looks and feels like an SSD server when it's really not. 235 00:15:54,700 --> 00:16:01,020 And last but not least, a serious upgrade to the RAM. We're adding 96 gigabytes of DDR5. 236 00:16:01,020 --> 00:16:04,820 This will be plenty to act as a RAM caching layer 237 00:16:04,820 --> 00:16:10,020 for our ZFS pool once we have TrueNAS installed. That just means our hard drives will be faster. 238 00:16:10,020 --> 00:16:13,140 All right. That's actually sick, dude. That looks great. 239 00:16:13,140 --> 00:16:16,620 This is kind of cool. It's a professional work. Kind of awesome. 240 00:16:16,620 --> 00:16:19,820 For those of you who have watched this long and gone, what are they building? 241 00:16:19,820 --> 00:16:23,340 This right here is a solid state storage NAS. 242 00:16:23,340 --> 00:16:26,500 So basically allowing them to capture any footage 243 00:16:26,500 --> 00:16:30,380 at open source or almost any number of cameras, practically speaking. 244 00:16:30,380 --> 00:16:34,780 We've got a couple of power supplies, one for the computer as well as one 245 00:16:34,780 --> 00:16:39,780 for the integrated network switch that will allow them to plug up to eight editors 246 00:16:39,780 --> 00:16:43,220 into this thing at once. Now's a good time for us to give a quick shout out 247 00:16:43,220 --> 00:16:48,060 to server parts deals, minis forum, as well as AMD for sending over some of the parts for the setup. 248 00:16:48,060 --> 00:16:51,780 G skill. It's going to be a pretty sick flipping setup when we're done. 249 00:16:51,780 --> 00:16:56,180 So the idea is that they'll be able to not only capture everything to the Pelican NAS 250 00:16:56,180 --> 00:17:01,060 or the ass as we call it, but they'll be able to back everything up offsite 251 00:17:01,060 --> 00:17:05,060 to this J-Bod, minis forum, Frankenstein's monster. 252 00:17:05,060 --> 00:17:08,620 I just met you and this is crazy, but I'm glad we built an ass here. 253 00:17:09,700 --> 00:17:13,900 Takes two people to make an ass this big. How would you mount this whole setup with- 254 00:17:13,900 --> 00:17:17,940 You need a rack. A rack? Okay, so I have an ass and I'm missing a rack. 255 00:17:17,940 --> 00:17:21,100 You need a rack for your ass. I am ready to create the pool. 256 00:17:21,100 --> 00:17:25,620 We're going to call it ass backup. No, it's got to be back that ass up. 257 00:17:25,620 --> 00:17:27,220 Back that ass up. 258 00:17:29,300 --> 00:17:33,060 Look at that. You have 186 tippy bites. That is psychotic. 259 00:17:33,060 --> 00:17:36,700 204 terabytes. You got some 32 cores. 260 00:17:36,700 --> 00:17:39,700 Wait, that, in this box? 261 00:17:39,700 --> 00:17:43,540 96 gigabytes of RAM. And 32 cores. 32 threads. 262 00:17:43,540 --> 00:17:48,500 I'm off the goalless for it to look like ass. Mission accomplished, boys. 263 00:17:48,500 --> 00:17:52,220 If you only store a video, it doesn't really matter, but there's some cool stuff you can do in ZFS, 264 00:17:52,220 --> 00:17:56,900 like native file system compression. So if you have like a bunch of photos, 265 00:17:56,900 --> 00:18:00,140 you just put them on the drive and it in the background compresses the data 266 00:18:00,140 --> 00:18:03,820 so it uses less space. Specifically like raw photos, like less compressed data. 267 00:18:03,820 --> 00:18:07,700 ZFS is extremely robust, whether you're using the compression features 268 00:18:07,700 --> 00:18:12,420 or whether you're not. I do a bunch of cable management and then I will fly this ass to you. 269 00:18:12,420 --> 00:18:15,460 This one, you got to figure it yourself. This one? Yeah. 270 00:18:15,460 --> 00:18:18,820 No, we'll ship it to you. Yeah, we'll ship it to you. Oh my God. Oh my God. 271 00:18:18,820 --> 00:18:22,180 Oh my God. Oh my God. Oh my God. Oh my God. 272 00:18:22,180 --> 00:18:25,540 Oh my God. Oh my God. Oh my God. Oh my God. 273 00:18:25,540 --> 00:18:29,940 Oh my God. Oh my God. Okay. I'm sick. 274 00:18:29,940 --> 00:18:35,020 So when we built this thing, I didn't know how it was going to connect to anything. Ian, who's like William Osman's homie 275 00:18:35,020 --> 00:18:40,820 that does open soft stuff was like, we might hook up some Mac mini. So it's a 10 port, 10 gigabit switch in there. 276 00:18:40,820 --> 00:18:44,580 So we could hook up a lot of Mac minis. We can bring some camera feeds in. We can do whatever you want. 277 00:18:44,580 --> 00:18:48,660 Okay. We don't have power yet. Right. So what I'm thinking is today we set it up 278 00:18:48,660 --> 00:18:52,060 somewhere here that we have networking where all the network info is going to be the same. 279 00:18:52,060 --> 00:18:57,020 So we can like configure whatever subnet you got. And then it can just get moved later. 280 00:18:57,020 --> 00:19:00,380 Yes. You might want to censor the next bit. 281 00:19:02,940 --> 00:19:06,300 The moral of the story is everything sucks and I just have to set it up temporarily 282 00:19:06,300 --> 00:19:09,500 and fix it another day. Great. 283 00:19:09,500 --> 00:19:13,260 Thanks William. Let's see if it still works. I brought this on the airplane. 284 00:19:13,260 --> 00:19:17,740 Like it went through the scanner thing and they didn't say anything. They were just like, see you later. 285 00:19:17,740 --> 00:19:21,660 Fortunately, I did do most of the setup already. It's got true nasty scale on it. 286 00:19:21,660 --> 00:19:26,340 It's seemingly working. The problem is once I got it booted up 287 00:19:26,340 --> 00:19:30,700 and I was looking at stuff, I realized we forgot to add cooling to the SSDs. 288 00:19:30,700 --> 00:19:34,060 Under normal circumstances, Jake and I would absolutely advocate 289 00:19:34,060 --> 00:19:39,580 for proper cooling for these drives. They were idling at 70 degrees, 290 00:19:39,580 --> 00:19:43,060 which wasn't enough to kill it, but I'm sure as soon as we went to like 291 00:19:43,060 --> 00:19:46,900 write any data to this thing, it would have been game over. Fortunately, Mark Roberstein came to the rescue 292 00:19:46,900 --> 00:19:50,820 and helped me print out this little like bracket thing 293 00:19:50,820 --> 00:19:53,820 that's going to sit on top of the SSDs, kind of like that. 294 00:19:53,820 --> 00:19:56,980 We'll add a fan and it will hopefully be enough cooling. 295 00:19:56,980 --> 00:20:01,780 I also forgot a power button. There's no power button. You use the screwdriver to turn it on. 296 00:20:03,460 --> 00:20:07,820 There we go. Beautiful. It coil winds really bad though. 297 00:20:07,820 --> 00:20:12,500 You hear that wind? It's brutal. If you have your mouth up in your ass, 298 00:20:12,500 --> 00:20:16,060 you just really can hear it. I don't know if this is going to work. I literally didn't test this at all. 299 00:20:16,060 --> 00:20:19,300 It's just going to have to work. That'll be fine. 300 00:20:19,300 --> 00:20:22,420 I mean, it's just for William Austin. It can't be too nice, right? Fans on. 301 00:20:22,420 --> 00:20:26,380 Looks like it fits. I had to like use heat set inserts as washers 302 00:20:26,380 --> 00:20:30,060 because the screws were too long and we're hitting the top of the drives. 303 00:20:30,060 --> 00:20:35,220 And there's another problem. I 3D printed new TPU inserts to give us space 304 00:20:35,220 --> 00:20:39,700 for the brackets that this mounts with, except I left them in Mark Rober's office 305 00:20:39,700 --> 00:20:43,220 and nobody has TPU. So I don't know what I'm going to do. Duck tape maybe. 306 00:20:43,220 --> 00:20:44,940 I'm going to kill him. 307 00:20:47,740 --> 00:20:50,380 I came all the way from Canada to give you this ass and you didn't even show up. 308 00:20:50,900 --> 00:20:55,460 You're so late. My ass? It took this whole time. I love my ass. 309 00:20:55,460 --> 00:20:59,380 I love your ass too. You see it has fans now. This is the best feature. 310 00:20:59,380 --> 00:21:02,820 We were driving the giant robot truck around. I couldn't. What? You see it outside? 311 00:21:02,820 --> 00:21:05,980 Can we put the ass in the robot? You put the ass in the robot. That thing looks like shit. 312 00:21:09,260 --> 00:21:12,500 This looks like ass. At least it does now. 313 00:21:14,620 --> 00:21:18,420 We can't set it up till tomorrow, but at least we made it. 314 00:21:21,260 --> 00:21:24,580 Okay, see you later. I'm going back to Canada. Thanks for the ass. Good luck. 315 00:21:24,580 --> 00:21:28,700 There you go, William. Hand delivered and set up for you at OpenSauce. 316 00:21:28,700 --> 00:21:32,780 And while I didn't get to go, I heard nothing but amazing things about the event, 317 00:21:32,780 --> 00:21:36,060 including all the gadgets and creators that we're able to attend. 318 00:21:36,060 --> 00:21:39,820 If you want to see more footage of the event, you can head over to softplus.com, 319 00:21:39,820 --> 00:21:43,460 which by the way was built using the back end of Floatplane. 320 00:21:43,460 --> 00:21:47,140 So not only would you be supporting William by subscribing, but also us. 321 00:21:47,140 --> 00:21:50,420 Another way to support is by checking out this message from our sponsor. 322 00:21:50,420 --> 00:21:53,420 If you guys enjoyed this video, why not check out the time we built a NAS 323 00:21:53,420 --> 00:21:58,500 for the one and only Mark Rober? Wait, are there other people named Mark Rober? 324 00:21:58,500 --> 00:21:59,940 Can someone fact check that?
