of being called and I quote the most powerful Tech event in the world the show runs out of Las Vegas where the hotels don't exactly have the fastest internet so instead of sending our footage back home to the studio to be edited we have to bring our editors to the footage and there's a lot of footage so much so that a couple of years ago we built this and you might think think wow lus that looks like a crappy old business machine and you're right but I promise it's got a heart of gold and a heart of kokia cm6 NVMe storage specifically 60 terabyt of it that allows our editors to work on location with the same speed and efficiency as they would with the crazy servers we have here in our studio all without even having to think about running out of space it's small enough to fit in a yes thank you for that Jake carry-on and it has enough networking to support more editing machines than we could ever need at the show but it has a major flaw it's at least with the case way too heavy I actually almost missed my flight last year because of this thing it just so happened that like the airline check-in manager was a fan and was like okay he can go we don't want that to happen again so it's time for a portable Nez V2 smaller lighter but just as capable and we're going to be using oh oh yeah you have the box do you want the box or the actual thing sorry meet the mini Forum ms01 Mini PC this thing's got to be what a quarter of the volume of what we built before and if the spec page is to be believed we'll be making basically no compromises to Performance perhaps the best part is you could just buy one of these online no weird modifications required check this out I can't even fit our sponsor in there threat Locker their cyber security event zero trust world is a great way to get some hands-on experience on how to protect against modern threats click our link and use code ztw lt25 to save $200 on your registration today we promis basically no compromises compared to our older Nas machine so why don't we start with networking any storage system that we use is going to have to be at least 10 gig Ethernet good for around 1 gab per second of throughput to the MacBooks that our editors bring to CES but this has not one but two onboard Intel powered 10 gig SFP plus ports not unlike the system that it's replacing but on top of that it also has dual 2 and2 gig and dual 40 gig USB 4 ports which could easily Run 10 or even 25 gig Thunderbolt adapters now we wouldn't want to bring a 25 gig switch with us to CES right you're not are you no I'm not what well I don't know I'm not going to can never tell with you where am I going to put that I'm going to bring that on the airplane I'm going to end up on a watch list the point is the onboard 10 gig is already lots for what we're doing but it's cool that we could go faster if we wanted to speaking of faster is that a freaking PCIe by 16x slot on a computer this small it's a half height slot so there are some limitations I call them lus slots that's a great name for them unfortunately while it is a 16x slot only eight of the lanes are hooked up but that's still a ton of bandwidth to play with if you wanted to add something like a couple additional ssds or in our case an NVIDIA Quadro p1000 a half height oh my God it's so cute single slot workstation GPU now this might be a bit of an older card but realistically it's powerful enough for our purposes actually why do we need a workstation we're going to get into that in this read the bloody script brother which we'll talk about in a minute but the system officially supports up to NVIDIA's current gen RTX 2000e Ada with a whopping 16 gigs of vram or if you're feeling crafty you can install this sick custom single slot cooler From Nerd Weare onto an RTX 40008 sff like craft Computing showed off recently we're going to have all that Linked In the description if you wanted to do something like this for yourself as for why we need a GPU in a NZ I mean we're not running a Plex server on it are we well I don't think I told you but I actually did find a place place in Vegas with good internet hyperx Arena Esports venue and they offered to let us keep this machine there which is great it's just that they're not open 24/7 like everything else in Las Vegas so we need to like export a video at 2: in the morning which going to try not to happens it happens this way we can run a VM on this machine remote in and render a video from wherever that is awesome and it will still have good internet but why not go with something newer I think I know the answer workstation cards are expensive and that was on the Shelf and because I had a better idea huzzah the new Mac Mini M4 it's so small and this is so small that I can bring both and to be honest this Mac Mini will absolutely crush this system even with the best GPU we could possibly put in there yeah this thing is actually kind of incredible especially for the price and for Adobe apps macOS is better anyways so that's why we use MacBooks for our editors normally here we're a PC house but Premiere is just so much more stable on the MacBooks and we don't have time to screw around with that stuff when we're a show of course anything would Shred the performance of our ms01 in its current state while you can buy it in a ready to go out of the box system we got ours as a be bones so it still doesn't have any memory or storage oh cool ddr5 sodiums let's go every once in a while I'm like oh yeah mushkin still exists they actually have some really cool stuff it doesn't have labels on it so you wouldn't know what it is oh but it's on here oh no are you kidding me yeah those are dual 48 gig ddr5 5600 megga transfer soda wow so we are technically downgrading our capacity 128 to 96 but it's close and we're going from 3200 to 5600 it's not going to be a problem now I just have to figure out how to get it into the system Philips zero perhaps yes sir yes sir o that's cute you can take the fan off without actually removing the heat sink to get the Thum slots oh and that gives them lots of air flow too I love it yeah but you're going to remove the heat sink anyways oh I heard through the grave Vine that the thermal paste they use on these not the greatest a lot of the mini fors boxes use Liquid Metal but this one does not okay screws her out but no there's two more they're under the foam if you feel it right what I got to take the foam off there I just poke through oh that's horrible Jake where's the other one e it's not the worst thing everever I I I'd actually rather you do it like that than rip the foam off cuz it probably won't stick back on remember when CPUs were Square I do I mean look at this thing it's a laptop chip it's a tall boy it's a laptop chip or a short wide boy I assume this is Intel then cuz AMD doesn't look like that yeah they actually sell a few different versions of the ms01 but we went for the top dog core I9 13900 H given the forrator like I said it is a laptop chip but it is no slouch 14 cores six of which are high clocking performance cores reaching Peak speed needs up up to 5.4 GHz with the rest being low power efficiency course but this chip is rated for a max turbo Power of 115 watts how is that a mobile chip well it's a I mean I guess that's why their CEO's gone yeah I was just primed to say yeah I wasn't expecting you to say that Jesus that's nice he he's prepared to agree with me even when he hasn't heard what I said I mean usually not but I just I mean with the size of this cooler or the size of the cooler in any lap top it's not going to be able to do that kind of wattage sustained No in fact minis form actually limits it to 80 watts in the bias but they do allow you to change it and since I heard that the thermal paste is kind of crappy PTM 7950 from LP store.com okay and maybe we can turn the wat up then yeah this stuff's actually perfect for this application funnily enough the reason we started carrying it was because of the crazy improvements people were seeing after upgrading laptop chips with it because on a normal desktop CPU which has a metal heat spreader the thermal pce might only see like 70 80° but on a laptop chip it's a bare die and you might actually see temperatures of 110° which normal thermal paste is not made for this stuff it handles it we'll uh throw some screenshots on the screen maybe a before and after to see what the the temps are like oh did you get before temps oh yeah I'm sure it's quite a bit better here's the application process by the way you just cut yourself a little piece peel the one side hope that you cut the right size piece and then peel back the top that's a lot what's trippy is it goes on like a thermal pad especially if you put it in the fridge or freezer before you work with it so you can see it's a it's a solid right now but once it heats up it changes to a liquid so that it fills in all the grooves just like a more traditional paste would oh I forgot to clean that yep I believed in you though I thought too much of you you put so much oh my God that's fine you can't put too much paste on something we proved it recently that you cannot you definitely can you can put it even in between the pins and the CPU really and it still worked oh yeah oh my God you're not what that's the GPU mounting solution look okay Justin has not had time to make a bracket for this GPU because it's missing the half height bracket and he's going to today before we go to CES tomorrow I'm sure it'll definitely happen now since we're talking about using this as a Nas we should definitely talk about storage which is another one of this system's strong suits it has not one not two but three m.2 storage slots which is kind of crazy now in the old system we used two of Kia's 30 TB cm6 ssds because well we had them on the shelf and it's nice to not have to worry about capacity and while we could still use a 2.5 in SSD with this handy m.2 to 2.5 in adapter they actually include with the msl1 now that we have experience running a assas at a show we know that even three or 4 terabytes is lot so instead of me having to worry about lugging around a $20,000 in kyoki ssds on a plane we're going to install a pair of these sabrent Rock rocket 4 plus 8 TB drives they're still stupid fast with a ton of capacity but at about a tenth of the price of the kyia drives then for boot storage a normie 512 gig gen 3 Sab rocket and I think with that we're all ready to power this thing on this looks great the entire package with networking plus the Mac plus its external network card is smaller than our previous machine where is that thing look at this that's freaking awesome yeah I could honestly probably just like stuff that in an LTT Store backpack I think it's lighter than the previous setup too the whole thing 8.26 lb 10.68 not to mention we didn't have a Mac Mini before and that switch would have been with this computer too yeah this is awesome yeah does it work oh yeah as with most of our storage builds this system is running true Nas scale it's a staple in the network attached storage community and it makes use of ZFS a combo file system/ volume manager we have been using for years I already went ahead and put our two 8 TB drives whenever it loads into a mirror with is that enough storage space for the entire trade show we already addressed that I was working I had a meeting the point is that a mirror will create a redundant copy of any footage or projects that we copy to it so in the event of a drive failure which probably won't happen we will still have a fully functioning Nest are you going to talk about your Windows 11 virtual machine with Premier wait why do we even need that if we're going to be using the Mac to this is our plan C if for whatever reason the Mac not responsive we can't get into the building right so we're just out of luck well we put the GPU in there we might as well have the VM ready to go so if I start it up that's also part of why it wasn't worth going to buy a fancy new one right right cuz we probably won't use it this is our plan C and so you've just got it passed through to the VM yep cool and I don't even need to leave the VM running like we can just if we need to turn it on are we using like a p KVM or something like that for the machine itself uh it's funny you should ask another super tiny thing the Nano KVM they finally open source the firmware on this thing and this is the more expensive one with the screen and stuff but the base model version of this is like $30 basically what this does is it takes any computer uh desktop laptop uh you know little mini PC like this Mac Mini and it turns it into almost like a server with a remote management interface so you plug this into your network you plug this into your USB port and your HDMI port and remote access over the network to any machine like a digital keyboard and mouse so cool actually this one is pretty cool too cuz it has those pins if you have this in like a desktop computer and I guess in theory you could do it with this you can run little wires to like your power on switch so if the system the bed you can hard restart it that is so awesome are we going to wire it up no I don't think that's going to be a problem the system also does technically have Intel's I think it's called the vpro management thing so you can wake on land but like extra super special wake on land I think it'll be okay okay I like this one a lot too because unlike the pi KVM it doesn't require uh additional power oh it can just be powered off the system unless the machine doesn't output enough but as far as I know it does is it off I wouldn't know because you know is it you got to put the press the power button on the bottom smart design let's look at Plan B yep that's a fast processor got the M4 Mac Mini is sick yeah I mean like if you tried to build a computer with the same amount of money I'm sure you could build one that was like technically faster for editing oh right and it costs twice as much once you increase the RAM and storage One Step yeah but all we would realistically use it for is taking a final video making a couple little edits and exporting and sure that might take 45 minutes instead of 30 minutes but at least we can do it at all I see how we're going to edit remotely if we need to but how are we planning to ingest footage to the nas it's actually pretty similar to how it's set up right now just instead of a Mac Mini MacBook Pro they already have an SD card slot right there all we have to do is take uh sorry if that's still open in Premiere wow take our 10 gig dongle I mean we're all going to bring one so it's fine we don't have to share plug it in copy over your footage the place that I told you that has the internet they're just going to let us have some editors hang out there no way yeah it's like an orts venue oh yeah the thing that drives me crazy is none of that used to be necessary the Arya and the vidara used to have great internet and then as far as I can tell because of just like the ownership group for pretty much all the hotels on the Strip being either like one or two and them all basically colluding to make sure that none of them are too much better than the others um meant that the fast internet went away yeah they all as far as I can tell have the same internet service provider and it's all like 10 megabit yep and they used to have hardwired Jacks in the rooms and they just they pulled them out yeah it would have cost them literally nothing to just leave them there but they couldn't do that everything's Wi-Fi so everything is dog yeah I'm not recommending this but sometimes they have you know the AP or just plugged in you can just unplug it plug it into your laptop I didn't tell you to do that I did the same thing in Japan sometimes it works of course not all of our editing is going to be done down in Vegas what about what we have to send back to the office here right we have faster internet than we usually do but not like 10 gig like we have at the office so we're not going to be sending the raw footage instead we're going to start using proxies so the editor's back home with our fast but not crazy fast internet can get proxy footage and then they send the project file back and then since we have the raw footage here you take your Mac Mini or your laptop and you conform the raw footage which is basically like replacing the proxy with it and render the video cool and I think all that's left is to show how all of it fits into our commuter backpack LTT Store.com here we go I'm going to put that power cable there going to put that computer right there I'm going to put this other power brick which I don't even know what it's for right here oh no wa that's for the computer it should fit right well you still left your Tech sack in there yeah I know well I need my tech sack how am I going to take stuff apart at the show if I don't bring my text you're bringing this I put that over there I don't know man this is looking spicy no no no I up this well this can just sit right there easy and then this no they're good they're good put the put the cable up there okay easy easy peasy squeezed lemons oh my God and macman is going to have a giant scratch on the top of no no it's going to be fine it's on the bottom where no one will ever see it except when they turn it on and off which nobody does apparently mhm oh God oh it should be uh what what did you say 9.6 lbs heavier it's pretty heavy now I got a lot of screwdrivers in there too you can't bring those on the pl no no I know there it is commuter backpack no Pelican case required oh this says weigh it here we go with a water bottle not bad how full is it full 24 lb that's pretty awful and here's a 24lb segue to our sponsor threat Locker whether you're a multi-billion Dollar business or a scrappy young upstart
