It' been 3 month since i have builded my own nas serveur not using openmediavault....
My actual specs:
Nextcloud server 13.0.x
Based A8-6500 16MO with Motherboard Gigabyte GA-F2A88XM-D3HP
RAID6 with 6 HDD Seagate IronWolf PRO 4 TB, ST4000NE0025
4.9.0-6-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 4.9.88-1 (2018-04-29)
Apache 2.4.29 / php 7.0.27 / 10.1.26-MariaDB / mysqlnd 5.0.12
phpadmin 4.6.6deb4 / Redis server v=3.2.6 / HTTP2 / Fail2ban abuseIPDB /
I have made some changes since initial build:
- Updated the Motherboard to an Gigabyte GA-F2A88XM-D3HP for the 8 native sata ports. The extended SATA controller cards were too unstable due to heating, and the old motherboard was getting old.
- Updated the 8Mo to 16Mo as nextcloud is more reactive. Also, i am running an IDS firewall and it needed more ram, plus all other software or options.
- Updated all my HDD for brand new Seagate IronWolf PRO 4 TB, ST4000NE0025
Actually, i am running in a strange Smartmontool (smartd) problem as the ST4000NE0025 is actually not present in the smartd-database. The ST4000NE0025 is the PRO version of the 4TO HDD, the public version is the ST4000NE0004 and i have strange smart reading... Still working on.
I am very happy with this build. Using Debian instead of openmediavault or other specific distribution was the right move for me. Having 100% knowledge of the build is really a plus. Of course, no more nice GUI for setup. But also, no more strange behaviors or bugs.
Futur updates:
- i may update to more ram as nextcloud gallery eat out a lot of ram.
