WEBVTT 00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:04.840 This is William Osmond. And whether he's building a freaking DIY x-ray machine 00:00:04.840 --> 00:00:09.120 in his basement or turning Simone Yetch's car into a giant computer mouse. 00:00:09.120 --> 00:00:12.520 Yes, you heard that right. He's clearly a pretty smart cookie. 00:00:12.520 --> 00:00:17.340 So Galaxy Brain, in fact, that he created an event called OpenSauce 00:00:17.340 --> 00:00:20.840 where he and all the other Galaxy Brains can hang out and do whatever it is 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 00:00:24.040 --> 00:00:28.000 since some of that stuff gets filmed and will be put on Sauce Plus. 00:00:28.000 --> 00:00:32.080 But here's the thing. That requires storage, a lot of storage. 00:00:32.080 --> 00:00:36.680 And we all know that building a NAS or network attached storage is way harder 00:00:36.680 --> 00:00:40.320 than building an x-ray machine. Is this it? No. 00:00:40.320 --> 00:00:43.720 See, I was being facetious before. Normally building a NAS is actually super easy 00:00:43.720 --> 00:00:46.960 because it would look like this and you would just slot the drives in the front. 00:00:46.960 --> 00:00:50.420 But when the customer asks for it to be portable 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, 00:00:54.040 --> 00:00:58.620 sorry, then it gets more difficult. Actually, I lied, that is one of them. 00:00:58.620 --> 00:01:01.220 But the other one is going in here. Come, come see. 00:01:03.020 --> 00:01:06.360 Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! 00:01:06.360 --> 00:01:08.860 Oh! Oh! Oh! 00:01:10.780 --> 00:01:14.180 I know you've built robots and stuff but have you ever actually built a computer? 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. 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. 00:01:21.820 --> 00:01:26.340 No. Okay. Have you ever built a NAS? Just sliding hard drives into a Synology account 00:01:26.340 --> 00:01:30.120 is building a NAS. Oh! Sure. But we're not building a NAS. 00:01:30.120 --> 00:01:35.600 All right, network attached storage. We're building an anywhere storage server. 00:01:35.600 --> 00:01:38.680 Ass. Ass? Right. 00:01:38.680 --> 00:01:42.600 And one of the most important things for ass is that it's solid. 00:01:42.600 --> 00:01:45.760 Solid ass! Well, you don't want liquid. 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. 00:01:50.680 --> 00:01:55.680 To make sure that this portable ass would be as robust as possible, 00:01:55.680 --> 00:02:00.680 we opted for a set of four Keoksia CD6 data center SSDs. 00:02:00.840 --> 00:02:05.840 Each of these holds a whopping 15.36 terabytes of data. 00:02:06.480 --> 00:02:10.440 So do the math and you've got 45 terabytes of usable data 00:02:10.440 --> 00:02:14.440 and lightning fast. This is cool. This is not ass. 00:02:14.440 --> 00:02:17.680 No, it is ass. Oh yeah, it is ass. Anywhere storage server. 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. 00:02:21.240 --> 00:02:25.600 No, this is not funny. This is serious business. Serious ass. Serious solid ass. 00:02:26.600 --> 00:02:31.200 So you can buy things like this that hold these special NVMe drives 00:02:31.200 --> 00:02:34.760 except the one for PCAE Gen 4, not even Gen 5. 00:02:34.760 --> 00:02:38.400 It's 500 US dollars. Just for the case? Just for the thing? 00:02:38.400 --> 00:02:42.080 Well, for the case and also the board at the back. Yeah, the backplane. 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 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. 00:02:49.600 --> 00:02:52.760 Yeah, that's me, ass man. Here you go. 00:02:52.760 --> 00:02:57.640 And a backpack? LTT Stradoc. Oh God, yes. LTTStor.com, you can get, what is this? 00:02:57.640 --> 00:03:01.000 Backpack? Commuter backpack. Commuter backpack? Can we get it right now? 00:03:01.000 --> 00:03:04.680 Yeah. Right now, for only 169 dollars. 00:03:04.680 --> 00:03:08.600 I'll just AI dug your voice. Yo, wait, that's sick. 00:03:08.600 --> 00:03:12.560 You can see when your bits are missing. Ha ha ha ha. 00:03:12.560 --> 00:03:13.400 Will it work? 00:03:16.920 --> 00:03:20.720 Hell yeah. Jesus. He broke it. 00:03:20.720 --> 00:03:24.360 It does eventually come out. Now he's going to do revision 43. 00:03:24.400 --> 00:03:28.920 This is super cool. It's a server motherboard, but it uses socket AM5, 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 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 00:03:38.960 --> 00:03:43.520 that is designed for remote access. And I can reboot the system remotely 00:03:43.520 --> 00:03:46.880 or I could even flash my BIOS over a network connection 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 00:03:51.920 --> 00:03:55.600 never actually physically touches the thing in their entire life. 00:03:55.600 --> 00:03:59.080 This is the motherboard tray. Nice. Cute, right? 00:03:59.080 --> 00:04:02.240 Did you print it vertically? No, flat. 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. 00:04:08.360 --> 00:04:12.560 Here's the CPU we went with for you. It's a Ryzen 9 9950X3D. 00:04:12.560 --> 00:04:15.760 Basically the fastest consumer CPU on the market. 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 00:04:19.840 --> 00:04:25.200 because even though the X3D chips do have lower TDPs than their non-X3D counterparts, 00:04:25.200 --> 00:04:29.000 this is not exactly the world's best ventilated case, so. 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 00:04:33.160 --> 00:04:37.120 need to connect to this. ASS, which is a Unify Pro XG8 PoE. 00:04:37.120 --> 00:04:41.720 It's a eight port, 10 gig PoE plus plus, plus two SFP plus 10 gig. 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 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. 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. 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 00:05:00.040 --> 00:05:03.920 where channels like yours exist, we get a hard time from our audience 00:05:03.920 --> 00:05:07.840 about doing things too janky or temporary. Why set the bar low from the beginning? 00:05:07.840 --> 00:05:10.920 Have we ever actually explained the point of this? 00:05:10.920 --> 00:05:15.160 The Pelican case. It's a portable rugged NAS that can be taken to open source. 00:05:15.160 --> 00:05:18.360 Okay, I'm going to give you a task. We got the Minisform MS-A2. 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, 00:05:24.000 --> 00:05:27.640 but just more power efficient. This is going to be the hard drive NAS, 00:05:27.640 --> 00:05:31.280 but the problem is these get hot and they need cooling. 00:05:31.280 --> 00:05:35.600 So your options are either we fit a specifically portioned fan right here 00:05:35.600 --> 00:05:38.640 that already is wired, but you need to cut this heat sink, 00:05:38.640 --> 00:05:42.440 or you design a thing to put a fan on the outside. 00:05:42.440 --> 00:05:45.600 And it blows down on the card over the thing. Yeah, we'll trim it. 00:05:45.600 --> 00:05:48.960 We'll cut the heat sink. We should put some stuff in this Pelican case, right? 00:05:48.960 --> 00:05:54.160 That guy? Boom. Just kidding, you got to take it apart first. 00:05:54.160 --> 00:05:58.360 Sorry, I'm just very distracted by them. Oh, that's way worse. 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 00:06:04.280 --> 00:06:08.040 if I was them. This place is great. There's bushes with thorns. 00:06:08.040 --> 00:06:11.320 There's rat traps. There's greenery. 00:06:13.960 --> 00:06:18.360 All I need is 10 more minutes and I'll have sod through this heat sink. 00:06:18.360 --> 00:06:20.880 I can't believe they don't have better tools. Just go to the shop. 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. 00:06:27.680 --> 00:06:31.920 It's incredibly high temperature resistant. This can handle fresh off the printer 00:06:31.920 --> 00:06:35.240 like 100 degrees Celsius. 110 degrees Celsius maybe. 00:06:35.240 --> 00:06:39.560 And if you anneal it, apparently you can do like 130 degrees Celsius, 00:06:39.560 --> 00:06:43.120 which is pretty hot for plastic. Are you guys doing okay out here? 00:06:43.120 --> 00:06:46.720 Oh, I'm doing great. So you found a scrap piece of lumber. 00:06:46.720 --> 00:06:51.240 Yeah, in the backyard. And I'm in nature right now. 00:06:51.240 --> 00:06:54.400 I feel like a man. Jesus, you butchered that thing. 00:06:54.400 --> 00:06:57.800 Whoa, that is not straight. Oh my God. 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? 00:07:01.800 --> 00:07:03.680 I'd rather have Microsoft Edge. 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. 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. 00:07:15.960 --> 00:07:20.320 This was smart. You picked the not bad side. You see, look, he undid his mistake. 00:07:20.320 --> 00:07:23.840 He controls Ede that. Oh, they're gone. 00:07:23.840 --> 00:07:27.600 Does everybody happen like this? Yeah. 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. 00:07:31.440 --> 00:07:36.120 Yeah. Boom. The first vibration mount is in. 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 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 00:07:46.160 --> 00:07:50.240 the ass a little bit. Yeah, put your finger in there, Jake. 00:07:50.240 --> 00:07:54.080 Jesus. It's not that straight. Dude, it's so crooked. 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. 00:07:57.480 --> 00:08:01.200 Yeah, exactly. Dude, if it's a luggage handler's handling, it's totally fine. 00:08:01.200 --> 00:08:04.400 Look, it's not going anywhere. That's the whole point, Jake. 00:08:04.400 --> 00:08:07.560 It's fine. See? It looks fine. 00:08:08.920 --> 00:08:12.360 Totally fine. I can't believe you've done that to my ass like that. 00:08:12.360 --> 00:08:15.720 Did it shake a little bit? Oh, yeah. It did shake a little bit. 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. 00:08:19.280 --> 00:08:22.360 And that's where this HD Plex gallium nitride 500 watt 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. 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. 00:08:30.160 --> 00:08:34.560 From one second to the next, he's like, that looks terrible. 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. 00:08:39.000 --> 00:08:42.200 No, I didn't say mint. You literally, you were recording. 00:08:42.200 --> 00:08:46.480 Did I say mint? Dude, that thing looks mint. Dude, that thing looks mint. 00:08:48.480 --> 00:08:52.320 Okay, but the real question that we need to answer 00:08:52.320 --> 00:08:54.200 is will this computer survive? 00:08:55.320 --> 00:08:58.840 Oh, did you put it in there before you did that? I heard things start moving. 00:08:58.840 --> 00:09:01.160 How many of these motherboards do we have? None. 00:09:02.960 --> 00:09:06.440 Hey, remember when I said you used the wrong screws for that switch? 00:09:06.440 --> 00:09:10.240 Guess what came detached? Well, not fully. You see that hole? 00:09:10.240 --> 00:09:13.280 You see how much it was in there and how it's not at all? 00:09:13.280 --> 00:09:16.800 So the PCIe bracket for this was the normal long one, 00:09:16.800 --> 00:09:20.560 but this computer right here, which is the... Mini's form, MSA2. 00:09:20.560 --> 00:09:24.800 It doesn't have the long bracket. It's like cut it and ground it down 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. 00:09:28.400 --> 00:09:33.600 Ta-da. Jake, what do you think? The cut that you did, the bracket is fantastic. 00:09:33.600 --> 00:09:38.160 I was trying to figure out how we were gonna make these fit together and then... 00:09:38.160 --> 00:09:41.640 Boom. And how is it gonna screw in? Right into the ass? 00:09:41.680 --> 00:09:45.000 Yeah, we could just screw that in from the other side. M3 screws? Yeah, with Loctite. 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. 00:09:49.040 --> 00:09:52.640 This isn't even a screw. This is the date you put it in. Geez. 00:09:52.640 --> 00:09:54.640 They just fight the whole time. They're just fighting. 00:09:56.560 --> 00:09:59.920 Okay, so here's what we're gonna do. I'm gonna put this one in. 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 00:10:06.040 --> 00:10:09.440 and then I'm gonna kinda eyeball line up the rest of them. 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. 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, 00:10:18.120 --> 00:10:22.160 it takes like two seconds. Yeah, and it's more airflow. 00:10:22.160 --> 00:10:25.320 Yeah, that's on there. I could huck this at the ground right now. 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? 00:10:29.040 --> 00:10:33.520 I heard things start moving. I will spray paint your mouth with this. 00:10:33.520 --> 00:10:37.160 Wow, it's actually not even that crooked. Under normal circumstances, 00:10:37.160 --> 00:10:40.640 Jake and I would absolutely advocate for proper cooling for these drives, 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. 00:10:45.240 --> 00:10:49.280 Oh yeah, 18 seconds. I have 18 seconds. Open sauce, it's like, 00:10:49.280 --> 00:10:53.280 imagine your favorite YouTube channel does an event and then they stop doing the event, 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. 00:10:57.680 --> 00:11:00.840 Dude, you like... I just stabbed him right in the heart. 00:11:00.840 --> 00:11:04.240 Do you see this? Look how cool this is gonna be when it's done. Boop. 00:11:04.240 --> 00:11:07.360 Okay, what have you done? I'm gonna do it right now. What, why not? 00:11:07.360 --> 00:11:11.140 With plastic dip? What are you, weak? Do you paint? No, I just sniff. 00:11:11.140 --> 00:11:14.940 Yeah, so she goes pretty, yep, and there you go. Oh, he's got the technique. 00:11:16.940 --> 00:11:20.300 That looks good. Oh, geez, dude. 00:11:20.300 --> 00:11:24.220 Oh my God, you got overspray. It's part of it. It's all over it. 00:11:24.220 --> 00:11:27.380 Okay, that does look pretty sick, though. That's sick. 00:11:27.380 --> 00:11:30.580 That looks like shit. Where did it get all like... 00:11:30.580 --> 00:11:33.580 Oh, it was... Oh my God, there's so much overspray. 00:11:33.580 --> 00:11:36.180 You got a paint problem, I'll solve it. Hi. 00:11:37.380 --> 00:11:40.940 Yeah, this is not coming off at all. What about electrosolve contact cleaner? 00:11:40.940 --> 00:11:44.860 You think that would work? Why is it working? Because it's a solver. 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. 00:11:48.940 --> 00:11:52.140 Excuse me, I didn't touch the primer. Liner and gasket. 00:11:52.140 --> 00:11:56.060 Is he always like this? That looks great. Actually, wait, wait, wait. 00:11:56.060 --> 00:11:59.380 Why did you get it down here, Linus? I didn't do that. 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, 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. 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. 00:12:11.660 --> 00:12:14.660 Cut most of it out with that, and then we'll use the soldering iron 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. 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. 00:12:28.740 --> 00:12:32.500 Do I have stuff on my face? Yeah, you got some little pieces of ass there. 00:12:32.500 --> 00:12:35.780 That's it, it's just some ass splatter on my face. Okay. 00:12:38.740 --> 00:12:41.740 Perfect, look at that. 00:12:41.740 --> 00:12:42.740 The ass is done. 00:12:44.860 --> 00:12:48.140 Of course, one of these is not aligned. 00:12:49.460 --> 00:12:52.660 Did you not check that? Have you ever mounted anything to anything 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. 00:12:58.540 --> 00:12:59.940 Look, glue's TPU together. 00:13:01.940 --> 00:13:02.780 Super glue. 00:13:04.980 --> 00:13:08.380 The super glue totally holds the TPU together, and you can't even break it. 00:13:08.380 --> 00:13:11.580 Wow, actually I thought it would break. 00:13:11.580 --> 00:13:15.700 Oh my God. It's not breaking at all. Oh, dude, that is on there. 00:13:17.820 --> 00:13:21.340 You doing okay there, bud? Look, if it's any consolation, 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. 00:13:24.940 --> 00:13:28.340 I already want the hands. Okay, this is not quite what I had in mind. 00:13:28.340 --> 00:13:36.220 Actually, where you were was probably pretty solid. Oh, my love, my darling. 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. 00:13:41.420 --> 00:13:45.060 Something special. Ah! Oh my God, making stuff. 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. 00:13:48.740 --> 00:13:52.620 Is it that spicy? It's not even spicy, it's just terrible. 00:13:52.620 --> 00:13:57.100 Half. It's half. LMG.GG slash Floatplane. 00:13:57.100 --> 00:14:00.300 This is a NetApp DS4243. 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, 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. 00:14:09.660 --> 00:14:14.380 We take a mini SAS HD cable, plug it in there to QSFP, 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. 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. 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. 00:14:30.900 --> 00:14:34.060 So we'll take our 16 drives and split them up into two groups of eight. 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 00:14:38.420 --> 00:14:45.100 and not lose any data per each group. Meanwhile, I'm getting our last external component 00:14:45.100 --> 00:14:48.700 locked tighted and mounted. What do you want? I got a template for you. 00:14:48.700 --> 00:14:52.540 What do you want? I have a template for you. What do you want? Take it. 00:14:52.540 --> 00:14:56.060 Receive my template. Okay, give me your template. Receive the seed. 00:14:56.060 --> 00:14:59.300 Oh, that's such a weird thing to say. 00:14:59.300 --> 00:15:02.940 Do you like it? I do. You can put it on my ass. 00:15:02.940 --> 00:15:06.580 I have some pretty good news though, gentlemen. The switch totally fits now. 00:15:06.580 --> 00:15:10.340 Woo-hoo! With the boost now, it works. Is that what you call this? 00:15:10.340 --> 00:15:13.740 Yeah, the boost shoes. Lift kit? It's like for people who want to be taller, 00:15:13.740 --> 00:15:16.940 they wear like boost shoes. He knows exactly what I'm talking about. 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. 00:15:21.420 --> 00:15:24.620 Now I feel like an a**hole. No, I'll show you an a**hole. 00:15:24.620 --> 00:15:28.340 Now we'll line us in, William, work away on our lovely that. 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. 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, 00:15:38.020 --> 00:15:41.140 rather than storing basically where the files are 00:15:41.140 --> 00:15:45.220 on the hard drives themselves. We're going to store that data on really fast SSDs. 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, 00:15:50.460 --> 00:15:54.700 it looks and feels like an SSD server when it's really not. 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. 00:16:01.020 --> 00:16:04.820 This will be plenty to act as a RAM caching layer 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. 00:16:10.020 --> 00:16:13.140 All right. That's actually sick, dude. That looks great. 00:16:13.140 --> 00:16:16.620 This is kind of cool. It's a professional work. Kind of awesome. 00:16:16.620 --> 00:16:19.820 For those of you who have watched this long and gone, what are they building? 00:16:19.820 --> 00:16:23.340 This right here is a solid state storage NAS. 00:16:23.340 --> 00:16:26.500 So basically allowing them to capture any footage 00:16:26.500 --> 00:16:30.380 at open source or almost any number of cameras, practically speaking. 00:16:30.380 --> 00:16:34.780 We've got a couple of power supplies, one for the computer as well as one 00:16:34.780 --> 00:16:39.780 for the integrated network switch that will allow them to plug up to eight editors 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 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. 00:16:48.060 --> 00:16:51.780 G skill. It's going to be a pretty sick flipping setup when we're done. 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 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 00:17:01.060 --> 00:17:05.060 to this J-Bod, minis forum, Frankenstein's monster. 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. 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- 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. 00:17:17.940 --> 00:17:21.100 You need a rack for your ass. I am ready to create the pool. 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. 00:17:25.620 --> 00:17:27.220 Back that ass up. 00:17:29.300 --> 00:17:33.060 Look at that. You have 186 tippy bites. That is psychotic. 00:17:33.060 --> 00:17:36.700 204 terabytes. You got some 32 cores. 00:17:36.700 --> 00:17:39.700 Wait, that, in this box? 00:17:39.700 --> 00:17:43.540 96 gigabytes of RAM. And 32 cores. 32 threads. 00:17:43.540 --> 00:17:48.500 I'm off the goalless for it to look like ass. Mission accomplished, boys. 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, 00:17:52.220 --> 00:17:56.900 like native file system compression. So if you have like a bunch of photos, 00:17:56.900 --> 00:18:00.140 you just put them on the drive and it in the background compresses the data 00:18:00.140 --> 00:18:03.820 so it uses less space. Specifically like raw photos, like less compressed data. 00:18:03.820 --> 00:18:07.700 ZFS is extremely robust, whether you're using the compression features 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. 00:18:12.420 --> 00:18:15.460 This one, you got to figure it yourself. This one? Yeah. 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. 00:18:18.820 --> 00:18:22.180 Oh my God. Oh my God. Oh my God. Oh my God. 00:18:22.180 --> 00:18:25.540 Oh my God. Oh my God. Oh my God. Oh my God. 00:18:25.540 --> 00:18:29.940 Oh my God. Oh my God. Okay. I'm sick. 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 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. 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. 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 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. 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. 00:18:57.020 --> 00:19:00.380 Yes. You might want to censor the next bit. 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 00:19:06.300 --> 00:19:09.500 and fix it another day. Great. 00:19:09.500 --> 00:19:13.260 Thanks William. Let's see if it still works. I brought this on the airplane. 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. 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. 00:19:21.660 --> 00:19:26.340 It's seemingly working. The problem is once I got it booted up 00:19:26.340 --> 00:19:30.700 and I was looking at stuff, I realized we forgot to add cooling to the SSDs. 00:19:30.700 --> 00:19:34.060 Under normal circumstances, Jake and I would absolutely advocate 00:19:34.060 --> 00:19:39.580 for proper cooling for these drives. They were idling at 70 degrees, 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 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 00:19:46.900 --> 00:19:50.820 and helped me print out this little like bracket thing 00:19:50.820 --> 00:19:53.820 that's going to sit on top of the SSDs, kind of like that. 00:19:53.820 --> 00:19:56.980 We'll add a fan and it will hopefully be enough cooling. 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. 00:20:03.460 --> 00:20:07.820 There we go. Beautiful. It coil winds really bad though. 00:20:07.820 --> 00:20:12.500 You hear that wind? It's brutal. If you have your mouth up in your ass, 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. 00:20:16.060 --> 00:20:19.300 It's just going to have to work. That'll be fine. 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. 00:20:22.420 --> 00:20:26.380 Looks like it fits. I had to like use heat set inserts as washers 00:20:26.380 --> 00:20:30.060 because the screws were too long and we're hitting the top of the drives. 00:20:30.060 --> 00:20:35.220 And there's another problem. I 3D printed new TPU inserts to give us space 00:20:35.220 --> 00:20:39.700 for the brackets that this mounts with, except I left them in Mark Rober's office 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. 00:20:43.220 --> 00:20:44.940 I'm going to kill him. 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. 00:20:50.900 --> 00:20:55.460 You're so late. My ass? It took this whole time. I love my ass. 00:20:55.460 --> 00:20:59.380 I love your ass too. You see it has fans now. This is the best feature. 00:20:59.380 --> 00:21:02.820 We were driving the giant robot truck around. I couldn't. What? You see it outside? 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. 00:21:09.260 --> 00:21:12.500 This looks like ass. At least it does now. 00:21:14.620 --> 00:21:18.420 We can't set it up till tomorrow, but at least we made it. 00:21:21.260 --> 00:21:24.580 Okay, see you later. I'm going back to Canada. Thanks for the ass. Good luck. 00:21:24.580 --> 00:21:28.700 There you go, William. Hand delivered and set up for you at OpenSauce. 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, 00:21:32.780 --> 00:21:36.060 including all the gadgets and creators that we're able to attend. 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, 00:21:39.820 --> 00:21:43.460 which by the way was built using the back end of Floatplane. 00:21:43.460 --> 00:21:47.140 So not only would you be supporting William by subscribing, but also us. 00:21:47.140 --> 00:21:50.420 Another way to support is by checking out this message from our sponsor. 00:21:50.420 --> 00:21:53.420 If you guys enjoyed this video, why not check out the time we built a NAS 00:21:53.420 --> 00:21:58.500 for the one and only Mark Rober? Wait, are there other people named Mark Rober? 00:21:58.500 --> 00:21:59.940 Can someone fact check that?
