The problem with such advance Sw is the overwhelming list of options and the lacks of sane defaults

It is not the same to find 10 different (and complex) solutions when you are evaluating what you can do for solving a problem. It adds more noise to the solution than anything else. And of course the minimum resources needed ;)

For the downloading I suggest you to have the download folder and the main storage both exported under the same nfs folder. Quite handy.

1. It depends of what you want as future proof (expansion capabilities). Usually home user nases come with low power cpu, a high power cpu usually is a enterprise grade nas, really costly for a home user. So having it separated makes the cpu upgrade easy but now you have 2 boxes. But if your terramaster comes with a decent cpu I don't see any problem.

2. True nas scale is really a behemoth able of almost everything. I would start with something more reduced like omv or unraid. You really don't need the advance enterprise features of that and it will add only complexity to the setup.

3. If you use NFS for exporting folders from your nas, the "computing box" will see this as a local folder, so no need to have 2 copies of the same file.

Hope it helps

Huh????

Honestly I don't see your problem, a nuance? Sure! An unsolvable problem? For sure not.

If you want to have your system reachable from the Wan then you will need a domain name. If you have a domain name then it is needed to be resolved by a dns server.

If there is a dns resolver then you would able to update it dynamically every time your ip changes.

True that the time alive of the dns records must be low enough to ensure that an ip change does not let your system down for an unacceptable amount of time.

You got it quite well :)

Have fun with the build

Yeah, but even if they seems to be contradictory messages, they are not.

RAM is always the first resource that is depleted is a nas/homeserver built, more ram or the possibility of expanding the ram is always a safe bet. But for a nas or a non Realtime system ddr4 is also not mandatory.

Reduce the cooling goes into the direction that the system is not going to be under high cpu load, so no need to dissipate, you can even reduce the cpu.

SSD is not necessary for a nas but it will make you VMs or containers snappier.

So coming back to the subject, your cpu is overkill, and therefore your mother board too (it has even support for sli!), having more ram is always good but my opinion is with 16gb you are good to go for a good amount of time (my server runs on 8gb and I don't experience any problem yet), obviously, your cooling needs to pair your cpu tdp.

SSD or m2 memories are cheap additions, and like somebody else suggested, it is good to have many pci slots even if they don't go full speed (x16) but will give you the flexibility to add more sata ports or Ethernet connections on the 10gb.

Honestly, if budget is not a concern you can not be mistaken with this built, but I can see potential to spare like 100 bucks in hw and another 100 in bills in next years

Honestly, I have the impression your setup is oversized (knowing nothing about what you want to run)

NAS systems set on idle like 90% of the time unless your are doing really crazy things with de duplication and distributed iscsi for super big volumes, that I have the impression your are not going to do.

You can probably cut the performance/specs to the half and still being good for the following 10 years and the extra that you will save on electricity too.

As a comparison I checked this built against your synology and in the multicore setup is x10 more powerful (https://www.cpu-monkey.com/en/compare_cpu-intel_celeron_j4025-vs-amd_ryzen_5_5600x)

Just my two cents

In Europe there is the penal recognition to criminal inducement, you may not be the real committer but the one who has been pushing and convincing people to do it.

And yes, if the person commits suicide, it falls in this category

Well, it itcks all boxes.... But yeah, you need to replace the battery at least

A galaxy s10e, super solid phone in a compact size (that's for me a plus), the battery is a bit on the line but quite decent.

Because the modification of that computer is order of magnitudes more difficult than a mechanical modification of a moving part. The humanity / regular human is able to understand much better the interactions of the mechanical parts that usually are always local and well defined.

This does not exist in the Sw, FW and digital hw, the interactions are not local and are millions timesmore complex to understand and properly modify.

It would be an utterly irresponsability to modify (blindly) the Sw of an xray machine that could make it unsafe and ultimately it could kill humans, and it is the same concept with the car. It is irresponsable to make a modification that can make the system unsafe.

For the rest? Regulations, free software foundation and good selfhosting Cheers

Then don't buy tesla, or force legislation about introducing such feature.

But make yourself a favor and don't play Russian roulette with something that you can not understandbecause there are not data available.

And for final tip, if you really cares about that then enforce the fsf (fsf.org)

It is not comparable, not even by far.

Assuming your are not a psycho, to safely drive a car is orders of magnitude (in plural) easier than modifying the Sw in a safe and deterministic way.

It is not only that bad people exists, it is about that making a small mistake can kill you
