What do you do when you come across 48TB of HDD storage? You build a NAS!

This board is still $300 on ebay
wow, 4 years later low and behold im doing this config in raid 50 instead. I didnt even know linus did this video, i even looked into an l2 cache, whould have saved some time if i had seen this. yeah the l2 cache doesn't help. this has me wondering what work load you would be needing to fully use an L2 cache.
we COULD post a parts list or something in the description
He used to think 48 tb was huge wait till petabyte project
can we get a 2018/19 update on making this? im finding nothing on small cases with alot of drive bays
Those Atoms had a habit of dying. I'm assuming you no longer use this board, but do you know if it still works?
Link to that motherboard. Thanks.
Back in 2014, the amount of 48 TB sounded more impressive….now, it's barely a 4 bay unit…..(although 6 bays is better to go RAID 6, at least)
You need all that to watch the walking dead?
2014 Linus: 48TB NAS 😱
2018 Linus: Petabyte Project
yea all nice if you have a about a grand for new or 700 or so for a used. out of my price range. LOL
Lol we have 14 TB drives now
Video starts here: https://youtu.be/KYBok-XGsKM?t=70
needs a refresh for 2019
It's 2019. If you guys still have this sitting around, I would be happy to take it off your hands! Even if it's just the MB, case, and RAM!
How much did it cost
Wait, if you're running in a RAID 6 equivalent then you've only effectively got 36TB of storage.
So what would this look like in 2019?
any up date for 2019
or 2020?
Wow, LTT has come a long way since this video.
Well did not age well
What do I do, once the mainboard dies? Can I just switch the mainboard reboot the OS and the files are still readable from the HDD's?
In 2020 that nas is enough just for the clips where he drops stuff
i need this on 2020
idk why this was in my reccomended but its a nice video
48TB to 3 Petabytes in 5 years. Noice
you have annoying eminem voice..better to make hip hop bro..:D
I miss the old much slower and relaxing ltt videos….
I hope to build a raid 6 storage server sometime in the near future. Probably around 10tb
i miss this intro
idk when i booked marked this but damn this Motherboard is still expenisve as heck but damn been booked marked since 2014 all hail the comedy of Tech and love this channel
… If you could only do something bigger… Like a petabyte server… Or maybe 2 petabyte… I think this Linus guy should talk with 45 drives and make such a project… Their are also from Canada
Needs a refresh for 2020. Fractal, Silverstone – your cases are old and outdated. DS380 needs an update (and I don't mean DS381!!!), also Node304 needs a downsizing / SFX only etc / maybe hot swap.
unironically this is the build that i'm likely to build in the upcoming months, can we have a refresh of this initiative ?
Having too little ram doesn't risk losing data in ZFS ( 3:29) , where did that idea come from? If you have a bit less than the 1GB RAM per 1TB of storage rule of thumb that just has to do with caching efficiency.
Just wondering where was this NAS trashed lol
How did I get here? How come this server only have 48TB instead of petabytes? And more importantly, how come this be a server build without Anthony?
Me, sitting in 2021 on my 30TB NAS thinking it's way to little storage… How times change
A 2021 update (including part list /links to Amazon for purchase) would be great. A 'build a PC for Dummies' approach would be appreciated. This card has a video out, and comes with a processor, right? So, case, PS, Ram, HD are the only other items, right?
When I researched HHD's, more particularly HHD's for servers, I found that almost all server banks avoided Seagate. They cited longevity as the deciding factor. Hitachi was their #1 choice with WD coming in second. Seagate was dead last! Imagine my surprise when Linus parades out a lineup of 8 Seagate HHD's and proceeds to talk them up like he's a salesman for Seagate and he's trying to close a multi-million dollar deal! Sorry Linus, Seagate really screwed me over in the past and I just don't forgive that easily…not even for you.
Watching this in 2021 after the latest one built in his new home, its a hard hitting realization on how swiftly technology moves.
Hey Linus, can we have one for 2021?! Please
8 years later and this wouldn't be a 48TB NAS but a 160TB NAS
