Building an Offsite Backup NAS
90A scary reality for me is the possibility of losing all my data, so it’s time to do something about it. This is my old, terribly painted Cooler Master mod project system that I’ve been using on and off for something like eight years at this point. The biggest reason for me picking this system is that beyond the fact it’s built and I don’t use it much right now, it’s also using the Cooler Master MasterCase - a chassis designed for modularity, which includes endless hard drive bays. I’ve also made a little purchase - specifically three Seagate Exos X18 18TB hard drives. In this video I’m going to get the system up and running - which includes switching to an APU to save power - then get it set up with I think TrueNAS Core as my OS of choice. I use UNRAID for my main production server I call Overkill, but I think TrueNAS is going to be a better fit for this off-site machine. So, let’s get building!
