A LOCAL STORAGE GOD

GOOD MAN

FUCK THE CLOUD

BUILD A NAS

I have

>>213290174 (OP)
too stupid to just buy one of these?

>>213290174 (OP)
why do all of this instead of keeping all my files on a hard drive?

has Jay always been some sort of master hax0r and we just never knew?

I want to set up a NAS but how does it handle transcoding if there's something my TV doesn't support?

At best there’s 10Tb of data in the world actually worth saving

>>213291179
plex mostly. if you dont care about consuming media on your phone, its pretty useless.

>>213291154
This is expensive. Can you recommend anything cheaper ?

>>213290174 (OP)
i doubt he backed up his own media. mastercard, fbi, shut this man down. there is no good reason a law abiding man should own have more than 1 terabyte on his pc, anyone with a "NAS" should be suspect.

>>213291154
you don't use ssds for storage you dingus

>>213291203
I know how jellyfin behaves
by default hw acceleration is off, meaning the cpu will do the job and usually it can do few streams unless you have absolute garbage
jellyfin just puts a real load on it and real power consumption while it transcodes

if you have igpu then you enable few settings and it uses igpu for the job which means it can plenty of concurrent streams without even looking like theres any load

>>213291343
I have plex media server on my PC and the 7800x3D heats up mad whenever it transcodes

holy based

>>213291411
last I heard about plex it does not support amd igpu
so yeah it transcodes straight on the cpu
while jellyfin can do VAAPI

>you can't just buy a 20 TB hard disk for your regular computer because...you just can't ok!!

>>213291468
It allows you to stove it away in a cot where the noise don't bother you

>>213290174 (OP)
It's extremely sus that every hard drive in that array has hardware encryption, and the whole thing is running in an air-gapped network.

>>213291582
I already have a PC

>>213291468
Server autists are turbo cringe. It's one thing if it is your job and you maintain servers for a company, but having one at home and obsessing over it is gay.

>>213291607
As do I, and it's completely silent, M2 SSD only

>>213291582
I don't hear any of my hard drives because my case is heavy and insulated
those flimsy glass / mesh cases to show off RGB are another nu meme that causes problems

>>213291643
HDs aren't louder than your CPU, GPU, or AIO fan you faggot nigger

What's the difference between this and buying a cheap PC and adding a lot of hard drives?

>>213291746
the ick

>>213291746
Hard drives are hot-swappable. Also, server hardware is designed for longer service life and has higher-quality electrical components.

>>213291746
you can act better than the average PC owner

>>213290174 (OP)
based Jay

>>213291701
not him, but they are if you are not poor fag and know your shit
the only things generally making noise in your PC are fans and spinning drives
case fans and cpu fans are easy to get under control and be inaudible from 1m
psu if you have good budget can be semi passive, same for gpu fans..
so that leaves the disks
and some disks might be decently quiet, but 7200 18TB exos wont be

>>213291783
My pc case has hot swap drives at the front

>>213291746
The cheap PC will likely have all kinds of other components that are useless in comparison. That and it will be bloated will a full operating system. The NAS is just there to provide files, not to do all kinds of other shit you'd normally do with a regular PC. Its storage

home sever for movie / tv seems dumb to me. how many times will you even watch the same file? once every few years?
stash (porn) is based thoughever

>>213290174 (OP)
>Jay has the Noctua NH-D15
based

>>213290174 (OP)
I chuckle whenever a faggot tech YouTuber does a clickbait "I can't believe people still pay for Netflix!" video that's just them building a NAS without detailing anything about the software or content acquisition
it's funny to see 3rd worlders in the comments sperging out that it's not a step-by-step guide to piracy

I do that too. My kinos are self-hosted on fmovies.to

>>213291827
Its the same as with physical media. How often will you pull a specific dvd/bluray off the shelf. The difference is you don't need a room full of shelving

>>213291879
lol

I just don't care anymore. I used to download everything and obsess over keeping up a good ratio on pass the popcorn, but I grew tired of it. All these online communities attract the absolute worst janny-tier tranny faggots.

I hardly watch anything, and if I end up watching a movie released within the last few years, I just use some online stream and watch it in bed on my laptop.

redpill me on the synology situation
Need a NAS to save all my data/porn horning that I've accumulated over 35 years on the interwebz
Is synology still safe or is it better to build a DIY NAS?

>>213291879
it is cringe attention whoring imo
>and here is where I organize all my illegal drugs and sex slaves! pretty cool huh don't ask how I have them

Can someone explain what a home server is to me?

Do you stream your own material essentially? Whether you store it on an hdd or in the cloud. Cause I don't think I need to do that since I just have my computer hooked up to my tv using an hdmi

>>213290174 (OP)
brainlets on /tv/ are poor and too stupid to set up a disk shelf. currently at 90tb for media.

>>213290174 (OP)
retard here
what is he using to self host? like what are those physically?
I thought people used old laptops and such for passwords, images etc

>>213292000
>guys look at all this slop that I never consoom

Where do I start?

>>213292000
>disk shelf

>>213292038
myspace has porn now? its been a few 20 years.

>>213292043
whats your budget

>>213291468
You want to access it on the living room tv, the gaming PC and download from your bedroom tablet or from your phone while you're on a trip to Antarctica.

>>213290174 (OP)
>HEY FEDS DID YOU KNOW I PIRATE MEDIA?
>HERES A PICTURE OF MY ILLEGAL SERVER LOL
genius

>>213292018
hard drives, a special controller card so all the hard drives can talk to each other, a special rack type case since this computer doesnt need traditional components like a gpu and off the shelf parts for the rest

>>213291746
Server hardware is more reliable to run 24/7 but if you're just hosting your own videos it doesn't matter. Plenty of people start out with a small PC with a big HDD in it, start getting into running services on their little server, and upgrade to something with a bunch of cores and RAM down the line to host more things at home. It's like any hobby, the beginner stuff is fine but sometimes you grow out of it.

>>213292000
>look at all this h*ckin' storage that I store things on!!!!

>>213291937
I don't even know how to seed with a proxy anymore because DHT doesn't work

>>213292112
lmao

>>213291866
he got the reddit color because of course he did

Why wouldn't I just buy an external hard drive? It's like 10% the size

>>213291879
You can rip your own discs you already bought.

>>213292025
you'll be trading me gasoline for seasons of The Office once the bombs drop

>>213292051
I'm not sure what retard symantics you're getting at disk shelf is the same as an array.
>>213292112
implying that's all it does

>>213292174
lmao

>>213292158
You can totally do that. It's just not as fancy or fast, and you gotta make sure to make backups in case the drive ever fails.

>>213291827
I guess it’s good if you want to watch something on your smart tv or on your pc or phone. Also Jay has to edit a ton of footage from movies so it makes way more sense

>>213291979
yes you stream files locally using some app that makes a nice UI with covers for movies etc.

it is for macfag types who buy expensive laptop with no storage capacity so then they need ANOTHER overpriced gadget just to store files

>>213291746
>cheap PC and adding a lot of hard drives
that's all a NAS is, fundamentally
you can turn any decade old pc into one easily

>>213291746
A lot of people (myself included) do just this. I turned my old gaming PC from college into a "server". It has all my TV shows, movies, manga and music and I can even access it from anywhere via Tailscale. I haven't paid for a streaming service in years.

>>213292206
plex and jellyfin and other garden walled 'apps' are that, but home servers themselves aren't
mine is just a simple windows pc file hoster and i can watch movies in a browser window on any device

>>213292043
saw reviews of TerraMaster on nascompares youtube
they would be my choice if I would be starting

$500 - F4-424 - 4 bay
$600 - F6-424 - 6 bay

n95 as the cpu is same as n100 which is more than enough for streaming and some other containers, 2.5gbit is always nice

>>213292098
any PC can do that

>>213292187
>disk shelf is the same as an array.
never heard anyone ever call a rack - a disk shelf
array is just how you setup your disks, either for lowering downtime or to have one large pool

>>213292379
>server is just a computer with lots of cores and ram in addition to lots of storage
No it's not, a server is just a computer that serves data to clients.

>>213292329
disk shelf or disk array is the appliance not the rack, nigger.

>>213292201
Is media stored on a server more secure than on an external hard drive?
Can I turn a server off and store it when I don't need it?
I don't know a lot about this stuff but I have 10TB of movies and shit I wanna keep

>>213291937
this. also i will watch some 1.4 gigabyte torrent. download in sequential order so i can 'stream it'

>b-b-but the bitrate/quality!
don't give a shit. my eyesight is getting worse, i can watch the film. might even be a cut above some streaming services, certainly better than old aXXo shit, it's fine.

>>213292416
never heard NAS or DAS or JBOD be called a disk shelf either lol

>>213291746
A server is essentially just a PC stripped of everything but the bare essentials.

>>213292000
>IBM System x

how old is that shit, grandpa

SHUT IT DOWN
THE GOYIM KNOW

>>213292158
external hard drives are slow and clunky
they take up USB slots
it's better to buy a bigger case if you have a PC and use internal drive. unless you want to travel with it

>>213290174 (OP)
>windows 11 scans his drives and finds illegal content
>os locked until content is deleted
>infraction auto reported to government
nice try but they've got you more outgunned than you understand. the era of media as a library is over, back to paying 20 bucks for a cd is coming soon.

>>213291154
Not even remotely the same use case.

>>213292428
>Is media stored on a server more secure than on an external hard drive?
Not really, if you backup your data to another external drive and leave it at your friend or mom's house that's basically as secure as data can get. Servers can protect from hard drive failures with RAID configurations but it wouldn't protect from physical damage to the system.

>>213292621
>>213292428
The only reason people use servers is for speed and convenience, there's nothing fundamentally different from using an external drive as long as you back it up, it just means you can access the data from other devices on your network.

>>213292025
>e-hoarders are pathetic
As an Aussie who is about to get his innanet cucked in about 4 months: e-hoarders are smart.

Keep hoarding. Host it all local. You don't have as long as you think.

>>213291979
>Do you stream your own material essentially?
by own material you mean shit you pirate right?
you also run bunch of services so you can watch anything thats out there in matter of minutes just because you search for it

you then also can open ports and watch it from anywhere if you have public IP
give access to people and they can watch your library

you also start hosting lot of other shit
you have your own netflix - jellyfin
your own spotify - jellyfin + finamp
your own google photos - imich
your own streaming gaming - sunshine and moonshine
your own password manager - vaultwarden
your own security cameras - frigate
your own home automation - home assistant

It honestly breaks my disbelief every time I hear them talking on RLM and they're like "Oh I bought this Blu-Ray" or "I rented this on digital for $20"

>>213290174 (OP)
Very sensible, old servers and disk arrays are cheap from ebay.

>>213292268
You have to keep it on and run services in the background that reduce performance if you're also using it for desktop. Running a gaming PC with windows costs you more in electricity than buying an old NAS or SBC type thing. I record my security cams to a $150 thing with one built in fast terabyte SSD. If your main focus is storagemaxxing you want NAS with the old hard disk that spin up. They can sleep when you don't use them so the electric bill is low.

>>213292733
>he doesn't own an OLED lmao
nope, 15+ year old 1920x1080 computer monitor. was good enough back then, still works great today. not like my vision has gotten BETTER with age, don't care about muh blacks or muh banding.

>>213292758
even if it's to get clips for the video, do they not just download some existing encode/rip? they do that themselves?

>>213292773
on larger screens, like my 83in sony oled, you can physically see the artifacts hence why I like high bitrates. bigger screen would help the eyesight you know.

>>213292758
RLM always said that only ""weirdos"" pirate movies, at least in america

>>213291154
You're a fucking idiot if you have one of those. They're prone to failure.

>>213292914
So what the fuck is on Jay's giant, proudly DRM-free server? You can't even buy DRM-free studio releases

My only gripe with having a home server is that if my internet goes down I lose connection to that computer. But it shouldn't. I should be able to connect to the drives even if my internet shuts off due to storms, maintenance, etc. Maybe I'm legitimately retarded.

Out of every person or guest on RLM, Jay seems the most peculiar to me. Even after 15 years there's just something about him I can't put my finger on. Having such a strange obsession and limitless encyclopedic knowledge in obscure, low-budget horror films from Italy or Poland. Also being able to recall the names of every director/writer/actor of a black and white Swedish film made in 1964 that only 100 people in the world have actually seen. He seems to really be afraid to show any genuine emotion becuase it might put him on the same level as all the other asshole movie critics. Even the slightest jab from Mike or Rich gets him irritated then he slowly shuts down all together. Jay's the type of guy to make snarky remarks hinting that he has better taste than you. He can be a snobby douche and I honestly think it comes from his repression of being a in the closet homo. His weird parasocial "Jay can do no wrong" fans on /tv/ are creepy as hell though.

Just get a hard drive or 2 and select what you want to watch using a barebones file explorer. Jesus christ the amount of fucking about setting all that crap up, the ridiculous expense of it all, and the end result is the same as if you just chucked some files on a hard drive the normal way.

That's his name and he wasn't buckbroken by the mind probe when this came out. That he was portrayed as a princess was a coincidence.

Hot server rack on carpet.
(This is assuming Jay's got the unit under a desk on the floor like a classic computer case and isn't just sitting on the floor for easiest photography options).

Even with only outpressure (fans sucking air from inside, filtered intake vents or zero intake vents) fibers, dust, and dead skin flakes will creep into those openings and give your computers a fine to coarse dirt layer. Even with all the fans running, the carpet can act as in insulator causing case heat to increase quite a bit. Only bonus is a carpeted floor decreases some unit vibration factor by a tiny amount. It's better to have the server unit AT MINIMUM above a floor higher than shoe height to prevent accidental kicking and to improve air cooling.

Good news is you can build these cheap with Raspberry Pi units and Google TPU mini cards and get AI boosts and an external memory cluster for big video editing projects.

THESE DAYS... you can rig up far cheaper homebrew backups with literally any junk literally laying around. Not bullshitting you in the slightest. What's crazy cheap these days? Paper.

You could create a QRCODE type system (monocolor dots) and save a few MB to each sheet of paper. BUT DEAR FRIENDS, that's not your only option. You could use solvent printer to add data dots to a long cloth ribbon and use "ribbon memory" for a few TB of physical ROM media. You could etch a coil of metal with burning laser etchers then polycoat it to protect the media so the etching doesn't get ruined in storage. Another choice is using a CNC with a fine point drill tip to etch dots into a media strip (which would be polycoated to protect the dots) of flat sheets or long coils or rings of various diameters (welded at the ends).

If you're not using QR CODES, use DATAGLYPHS (symbols are literally "/" and "\" with redundant error correct coding).
https://free-barcode.com/barcode/barcode-types/dataglyphs-2d-barcode.asp
DataGlyphs barcode, also known simply as DataGlyphs, is a technology developed by Xerox Palo Alto Research Center (PARC). It allows for the embedding of digital data into images, such as photographs or graphics, in a way that is nearly imperceptible to the human eye. This technology leverages the principles of steganography, which involves concealing information within other non-secret data. DataGlyphs are particularly notable for their ability to encode information within a half-tone image or background shading pattern, making them appear as natural variations in the image itself.

As BLU-RAY discs stop being manufactured and DVDS are becoming scarce, it never hurts to have literal piles of physical media as an ownership flex, but a "you cannot take this from me" power that streaming thief services cannot remotely undo.

That would be Rich, he's built a PC on stream before.

Other choices are CRYSTAL ETCHING DATA STORAGE. You could brag that you're the owner of a crystal laser etched with the whole George Lucas collection of movies saved in a format that he cannot ever fuck up later.

Now of course, with the EIGHT YEARS OVERDUE wait for 3D FLASHCARD storage which promised multitudes of fingernail sized 300 TB storage, we can choose other options in the meantime.

Samsung launches their 61.44 TB BM1743 SSD and teases new 120TB model —July 9, 2024

Of course, that's not the only CHEAP ROM media options. Bead memory (think of it like a TORRENT format, random chunks, lots of pieces). Basic theory, take rice grains, laser etch each grain with data chunks of a movie file (multiple redundancy copies), to rebuild the movie, you suck up the rice, read each grain, move to next one. Except you use plastic beads or pellets or even a string. Bead memory could also be clear marbles etched with a chunk of digital file media and its TORRENT CHUNK indexing codes. If you've got a microscope, laser etch or scanning tunneling microscope (they are CRAZY CHEAP if bought used) sand grains or glass dust balls used for glazing ceramics or glitter circle/square fragment surfaces. Imagine hiding movie torrents in a locket as digitally etched dust materials.

Fiber memory would be a thread like used for clothing, each containing a physical dot or a magnet dot. If you want better durability, ROD MEMORY. Stainless steel rods, etched, then inserted into locking slots in a bigger wood rod. Etched rods pop out for reading, pop back in for protection and storage.

Jay, I can't and won't make this any simpler for you. You failed at life. You failed. When one thinks of what man is capable of, pushing himself to the limits physically, mentally and emotionally to achieve heights of success never before mentioned, your name will not be whispered in the same, reverent fashion that others have. Nobody will remember Jay Bauman. You aren't even a header or a footer in the career of someone else. You are nobody. Nothing. Nada. Zilch. In short, you are an enormous failure. Jay, being that you're about 45 years old and your brain has probably hard-wired itself to accept such failures by now and write off such criticism by being "flippant", really suggests that you've passed beyond the proverbial breaking-point. There's no turning back. This is your career, this is what defines you and this is what you'll defend to the end. The abhorrent failure that is Red Letter Media, Jay Bauman, that is your legacy. Maybe I'm over-reaching, however. Who knows? People CAN change. Maybe you'll read this, Jay, and think long and hard about what a wasteful life you've led. Maybe you'll think, "wow. It's incredible just how abysmal and pathetic I really AM!" Maybe you'll lift some weights in the morning. Maybe you'll take a self-help class. Maybe in a couple of years, Jay, you'll have learned from this failure. I doubt it, though. I genuinely doubt it.

Using monocolor Dataglyphs gets you:

Based on the Canon PIXMA iP110's maximum print resolution of 9600 × 2400 DPI and the technical specifications of Data Glyphs encoding, here’s a detailed calculation of the data capacity for an 8.5" × 11" (Letter) paper with 0.25" margins:
Raw data would be 1.935 Gb (about 0.242 GB), but we need error correction. Using 25% Reed-Solomon ECC overhead, the net usable capacity becomes 1.547 Gb or 0.193 GB per page.

With 4 colors you get 2^4 (8 times more storage), if you use "solvent printer" colors (UV-CURE poly resin) which can give you 6 to 8 colors (usually silver or clear or extra white, but can be 1/2 intensity color or even UV or infrared or magnetic ink for bank checks) you get 2^6 (32 times more storage) or (2^8= 128 times more storage).

That's not touching on Microfiche Media (photo microdots on film limited by grain density) or micro laser etching.

One big bonus of a solvent printer (UV light cure of polymer resins). If you can build 3D objects as a cold 3D resin printer.

Note that all the limitations of crystal laser etching goes away with Stratasys printing at you can literally put built in Raman Scattering mirrors to read any 3D layers. Hell, you wouldn't need to buy microchips as their tech gets better, just print them on the spot. Surprised the 3D NAND guys aren't just making Jacob Ladder Toy type layers then stacking layers and adding in connection lines. Of course, actual 3D memory chips need prefix routing code bits (00, no change, 01 up a layer, 10, down a layer, 11 undefined).

Why isn't the best option to just buy two $200 20TB externals. Keep one for backup and if either drive fails just buy another one. Doesn't take up any space, electricity, or time.

I would not want to wait around for my millions of printer paper ones and zeros to decode themselves back into a watchable video and audio stream

Was a meme in like 2010 when manufacturers were new at ssds. Solid state is inherently more reliable than spinning magnet disks a millimeter away from a flimsy robotic arm thing.
