HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 21 авг 2024
- In this video I expand my Synology DS1815+ with a 10TB disk that came from my Synology RS1219+
I am replacing a 4TB with a 10TB. It took the NAS 4 days to finish the expansion.
Also I test out two 10TB SAS drives,, with out reviarling to much,, with less luck.

My PlayHouse is a channel where i will show, what i am working on. I have this house, it is 168 Square Meters / 1808.3ft² and it is full, of half-finished projects.
I love working with heating, insulation, Servers, computers, Datacenter, green power, alternative energy, solar, wind and more. It all costs, but I'm trying to get the most out of my money, and my time.
I see we are saying "their" name again, hm, i wonder what that means for future videos ........ thanks for another nice video Morten
We are not happy about it either,,, I will punish myself...
I used to follow your channel around the time you got your braces, then for some reason I moved on. I decided to search for new videos and subscribe again and it seems you bought a house in my country, in a region I know well. I wish you the best for the future, it's a beautiful region and the people there are wonderful. Older people might not be very happy seeing so many foreigns moving here, just smile and be warm and they'll start bringing you food every weekend :)
Thank You,, We all move on and find new interests.. :-)
@@MyPlayHouse I subscribed again, I look forward to your new projects 👍👍
Excellent video, as always! 👍
Only You put SMR drive in Synology NAS.. Great, that this is just a offline backup.. Now we can see how long it will last..
Thank You.
Those whitelabel WD drives should not be SMR.
@@MyPlayHouse I hope it's true, but all other drives from EMAZ, EZAZ family is SMR.. 😉 WD may put SMR in external boxes to prevent shucklin for NAS.. Older parties come with different drive family..
I've been buying 16TB Toshiba drives at ~dkk2100. They don't come with an USB enclosure though. One from the red shop was DoA, immediate swap with no discussion, so no complaints there.
Hi Kasper Pedersen

I like to see that you are catching up with all my videos :-) Thank You!

I am running with a 47 year uninterrupted uptime,, not to Dodgy :-)
Some people needs a short vacation to be not dodgy for 3 years
You should use a medium between the table and the server laid upon it to insulate against acoustic amplification/vibration induced by the wooden table, the shape of the table underneath is acting like a speaker too :)
Humm Yarh maybe that would give a little noise reduction.
Hi Morten, I would recommend updating to DSM 7. Just checked and your DS1815+ can be updated :)
Thank You,, it´s not that important,, as I turn it on,, copy some data, and turn it off,, it does that really well :-)
Due to using SHR1(or raid5/1) before performing an drive replacement you should really do a backup first (this is your backup so not this one) then run a data scrub (ideally should be enabled to run automatically every month like say the 5th) and all other drives should have passed previous smart extended scan as well (ideally should be ran as a task every 3 months usually say day 15th)
Data scrub is only fully effective if your using btrfs and have enabled Checksum on all share folders (as it checks the filesystem data first and attempts to correct before running a raid sync witch would prevent that)
Synology also has secure erase option witch triggers the drives built in ATA secure erase (zero clears it) it can sometimes bring a bad drives back to good health but should only be used in SHR2/RAID6 for possible reliability reasons (unless it's been disabled in firmware then secure erase will be grayed out, drive must be in a deactivated or not initialised state for secure erase to be available and drive has to support it witch most do)
I do not have to back up,, as this is a backup,, the off-line backup.
This is one of three copies... there is the 24/7 copy, the off-line backup and the off-site copy.
@@MyPlayHouse I think you missed the bit where I said "this is your backup so not this one" (might have worded it not very well sorry)
As this is an information video most people don't back up there Nas and still use SHR1 and don't usually understand that this is a really critical state when a disk has failed or even more dangerous when rebuilding as it can fail due to another drive failing and sometimes destroying all the data
Backup first, data scrub and smart extended scan then replace drive, if this SHR2/RAID6 you can mostly skip all them steps because you still have redundancy and it's extremely unlikely 2 drives never mind 3 drives to fail (assuming maintenance tasks have been ran, like data scrub and smart extended, as they usually pickup on a bad drive early) , backup is still recommend first even when using SHR2/RAID6 as raid is not a backup 😁 (on its own)
if this is a backup (witch yours was) then if it blows up you just reset it backup and rerun backup (more care needs to be taken when when it's your only nas pulling a drive and hoping for the best)
It the drive has surface issues, the vendors disk utility can often fix it. At least for a period of time.
Hi kjakobsen
Thank You very much! glad you liked the video :-)
Thank you for watching! :-)
The Seagate Exos X20 18TB drive is the same price as the 14TB WD external drive.
Yes the WD external drive, are not as good a deal, as it us to be.
I wish Santa had filled my stocking with WD Red Plus 14TB HDDS… 🙁
Did you send him your wishlist :-)
I started to do the shucking last year (2022) but I now just grab the Toshiba MG line from amazon they are slightly cheaper in the UK and less faffing about but get sent from US
search for "MG Series 3.5" SATA HDD"
MG series are the rebranded for synology (5 years warranty)
Hope this helps :)
Yes the WD external drive, are not as good a deal, as it us to be.
@@MyPlayHouse The UK prices £245 for the 16TB and mine only took 5-7 days to turn up (ordered 30th Dec arrived 5th Jan)
EXPAND MY WHAAAT ???? This "no-name" NAS ? ^^
The sindfull NAS :-/
18 is way to go - prrices will eventually start to drop for reg people out there sweet spot for used spinning rust is moving from 4tb to 6tb #kroner per tb
I do not want drives that is to small,, better to pay a bit more and they will be relevant for longer.
I like the Seagate Exos X16 ST16000NM001G 16TB internal hdd prices on PriceRunner
That is actually a little cheaper per. TB
@@MyPlayHouse and it might be a better drive, but might also be a little more noisy, but that wouldn't be a problem in the datacenter
Yep i bought these too over a year ago. You get 16 or 18 TB for less than 300/350 Euro's and these are real enterprise drives!!
when you upgrade the Primary NAS can you also cover the Drive Location option?
You mean to let it light up on the drive that I want to replaces ?
@@MyPlayHouse yes
Bad luck with the drives. Surprised you say you're happy to pay a bit more, but then shuck external drives rather than buy NAS specific drives. I guess you buy more of them than me. Just got myself a new Synology - finding their snapshot replication is an excellent use for the old one, though hope I never need to use it.
I have not had a shuck drive go bad,, and I have done quite a few now.
poor lighting mate
Synology,, I joined the dark side.... :-)
Maybe saving energy… need all to the fans of the NAS
