Making the Most OVERKILL NAS - Testing 8TB SSD Cache, 10Gbit LAN, 72TB!!

Video Description

Ugreen NASync Private Cloud Storage Solution, up to 35% OFF before 5/9: https://kck.st/3UlMMi7 This has been something I've been scared to do, but finally did... I built a NAS. Ugreen sponsored the video, but maannn I was gonna do this anyway so I was like "sick". NAS's are extremely useful for backing things up, making a vast, central storage system, and to run any personal server-related things at all times. They are also extremely customizable and can be very budget-friendly. So we took this thing- maxed out the RAM, went to 10Gbit network, gave it 72TB, and used SSDs to basically eliminate any issues that hard drives have. I honestly love this thing and since you can customize SO much and is SO easy to set up- I think a NAS is a great solution for almost anyone, especially when you can share it with others. It's awesome and I hope you enjoy! 18TB Seagate NAS Hard Drives (*new*- but also consider used ones, they're a LOT cheaper!): https://amzn.to/3UGJmYZ 4TB WB NAS NVME SSDs: https://amzn.to/4aTye0r Zyxel 10Gbit Managed Network Switch: https://amzn.to/3Uj4HX2 SFP+ 10G to RJ45 Adaptor: https://amzn.to/44j4JTf 10Gbit- 2 Port Network Card: https://amzn.to/3wim8yP 32GB SODIMM DDR5 RAM: https://amzn.to/4bdOA3J 64GB SODIMM DDR5 RAM: https://amzn.to/49YBRRl (^ links above are affiliate links, if you're interested they go to support the channel at no cost to you!) ==JOIN THE DISCORD!== https://discord.gg/xbVEkhPJ72 0:00- I'm Scared... 1:54- What is NAS? 3:40- NAS is whatever you want it to be mannn 4:30- Setting up the NAS is ez 8:48- Upgrading to 10Gbit NETWORKING! 13:46- 10Gbit is WILD 15:45- 64 GB of RAM might be too much lol 19:15- SSD Cache 22:20- HDDs plus SSDs is bonkers 26:02- Everything a NAS can do
