Curious on how you set this up? I have Apache2 and PHP installed already. Is it a specific software on sourceforge (not WebDAV, I know there's a lib for that)?

Here's a howto based on redhat, but it should be pretty much the same for ubuntu...

http://www.twilight-systems.com/flac...ache2-rh9.html

I assume it comes with apache 2.x, if so, the above should work.

Webdav is very handy to have when trying to remotely access the NAS without a trusted windows network ID. FTP should work too, but DAV is a lot easier.

thanks,
mike

Thanks. Do you have a particular client that you use to interface with the WebDAV?

Oh, well, you can just turn on Directory Indexing in Apache for Firefox. WebDAV is a little more special and there are actual clients that interface with WebDAV (subversion aka SVN can use WebDAV to serve files to DAV-enabled clients like Eclipse). Something like this: http://www.bitkinex.com

Sorry, what i meant was is that there are dav plugins for both ie and firefox. I use them that way and its quite handy...

thx

For what its worth I've been using FreeNAS for over a year now and have ben pretty happy with it. It has been very stable for me and most all of the problems I've had with it are hardware not software.

I originally was running 4 drives. 2 80GB drives software mirrored for general storage and 2 250GB drives for video recordings. I was recording via 2 tuners across a 100MB wired network with no problems. This was on an Athlon 1300 Tbird with about 300+MB of memory

Just switched some hardware around and now have 4 drives setup hardware mirrored on an old asus board with a promise controller and 3 additional 250MB drives for recordings. 600MB of memory and 1333 Athlon Tbird.

Only had this running for a few weeks and again I'm very happy with the reliability and low cost.

Just giving other options.

FreeNAS is a pretty good implementation, and getting better all the time. However, if you are looking for the best hardware compatibility, it's hard to beat linux, whereas FreeNAS is built on freebsd. No SATA PMP support, support for bunches of disk controller hardware etc... Freebsd 7 will be much better here, but freenas is still 6.x based.

The filesystems freenas supports are pretty limited. They recommend UFS (!) of all things. XFS is REALLY what you want for media storage where you have really big files that need to be handled. freebsd 7 is supposed to support sun's ZFS, which obseletes a bunch of volume management that is typically done via lvm today, but again, no such support for the current versions of freenas.

If you are looking for high performance, getting all the the oopmh oout of the hardware you have, freenas is going to disappoint you.

That said, if you don't know much linux, have only a few disks and have limited need for performance, it's a pretty nice package, and can be completely managed via http. At least it does software RAID unlike WHS and unraid.

Thanks,
mike

Here's those updated graphs that you were wondering about Mike. This now tests the EVMS volume that contains to MD arrays.

Write speed for 8GB file: 165MB/sec
Read speed for 8GB file: 100MB/sec

Something isn't right here. This is slower than it should be.

Are you using my diskopt.sh script? Is it setting the readahead appropriately for all devices?

Thanks,
mike

Let me know if you want my modified diskopt that has that output.

The last 4 drives output 31 because they're connected to the NV ports and is doesn't support NCQ.

Interesting. Are you sure all your 7200.10's are in SATA II mode? (No jumper set for SATA 1 operation)...

Thanks,
Mike

Yup, I pulled those jumpers off. I ran into that on my 750gb drives when I got them and noticed that they were only running at SATA150 after a while...so I knew when I got these to remove those.

Here's all the dmesg text related to the drives. What's interesting is that it is listing port 5 of both port multipliers coming up at SATA150, but I swear I don't have anything plugged into that port (unless it is the HOST port??).

[edit]It also looks like the drives on the NV ports do have NCQ enabled at 31/32, thus the 31 showing up in the status I posted earlier. I just can't seem to set it to 1...would that be causing any problem? Should I move those drives to the PMPs?[/edit]

Hmmmm... Generally if the PMP code isn't there, it's port 3 that shows up as a direct attach to the 3132 port, not port 5. I would drop Tejun a note on this and ask why it's reporting as a disk is there when it isn't.

Thanks,
Mike

Do you think any of these lines are bad?

Got the longer SATAII certified cables in the case tonight and the larger intake fan also and put the harddrives back the way they should be. They still run hotter than the smaller drives closer to the intake fan, but they're easily 10C cooler than before. There are two spots on the back of the case for additional outlet fans that I didn't notice before. Perhaps if I add those fans the flow will be good enough to keep them down in the mid-30C range.

[edit]Ordered two 80mm fans that both move 46CFM...that should suck all the air out! [/edit]

Just throwing in what I did, in case someone's interested:

Hardware I had laying around:

* 3Ware 8-port 7608 (I think that's the number) RAID controller
* Old Dual-300MHz PC
* 2-500GB ATA/100 Hard Drives

I bought 6 more 500GB ATA/100 drives at $100 a pop, filled up the RAID controller, and am running RAID-5.

Running WinXP and 3Ware's software, the NAS was up and running pretty quickly.

I don't do any HD recordings, so I can't say whether or not the system could handle that kind of throughput.

I have ton's of DVD's and music archived plus all my backups...with plenty of room to spare. Sage records directly to it...and I rarely see any hiccups. Sometimes, but rarely, I'll see a few blips if I buy a new DVD and am copying it to the NAS, while watching another DVD, and while Sage is recording a TV show simultaneously.

All total, I've broken it into 1TB and 2TB partitions. For me, since I had the hardware laying around, it was a great deal. Ended up with a 3TB NAS for the price of 6 drives, and it does a great job for me.

Had to spend a little time building an aluminum frame to fix the drives into the old PC case so it could hold 9 drives (1 OS + 8 RAID), and mounts for the big fans...but it was worth it.

The NAS sits in the garage with plenty of fans...so I don't care how loud it is.

I'm trying to set up a NAS similar to mikesm and kjake. I'm not sure my hardware is being recognized correctly by Ubuntu 7.0.4 Server 64 bit.

1. The network can't tell me what link speed it is running at
2. I'm using Maxtor 7200.10 SATA2 Drives and when I run hdparm -tT against them vs. against an IDE ATA133 drive, I'm seeing ~150MB on buffered read on the SATA2 and ~50MB on the ATA133 drive. Shouldn't the difference be bigger?

The hardware is:

CPU AMD X2 3800+
MB Chipset nForce 430
Memory 1GB DDR 2100

Not sure what more information would help.

Try: ethtool eth0 (or eth1-n depending on what your primary interface is). That'll tell you everything about your network connection.

Make sure you've taken off the SATA compatibility jumper on the SATA2 drive, looks like it is running at SATA1 speeds. If I'm reading this right, you're getting abuot 50 megaByte on an ATA133. The 133 stands for megabit which converts to 16.6 megaBytes per second. I've squeaked out 17MBps on an ATA100, so maybe 50MB on an ATA133 is possible. Or maybe you're mixing up byte and bit?

Thanks,

Actually, ATA133 is 133 MBytes/sec. SATA actually doesn't really make that big of a difference in throughput - it's advantages are in other places.

50 MB/s is pretty poor for a new disk. But not bad for an old one. As KJake said, please describe your specific hardware config - CPU (939 vs AM2), model of disk, model of motherboard, etc... Some boards stick the disk and ethernet through a PCI bus instead of PCIE, and then you get into contention issues. You also want to make sure the ATA disk is really in ATA133 mode, and not in PIO or lower speed DMA setting. hdparam will tell you a lot.


Thanks,
Mike
