An update on my home NAS / server:
The Good:
I have the PI 4 running Open Media Vault 5.
It's in a purple anodised heatsink case.
Connected via ethernet to the LAN.
I have the powered USB hub. With the return power cable snipped.
I have the two Toshiba 1Tb USB drives and another old 500Gb USB drive plugged into it.
I have the transmission docker running via a VPN.
I have a CUPS docker running, sharing my elderly printer with the household.
I have a Minecraft server docker running, for the kids.
All of the above works and works as fast as I would like it to.
The bad:
OMV 5 (for good reasons) does not support RAID for USB drives.
I have not yet set up a merged file system across the drives, so I have two "media" drives totalling 1.5Tb and a 1Tb "files" drive.
I need a backup solution for the files. Probably rSync to one of the Media drives.
The Ugly:
See photo. It's a mess.
