Radxa's Penta SATA HAT fits nicely atop the Raspberry Pi 5. Can I use it to build the ultimate Pi 5 NAS? Or will we run into issues?
This video is not sponsored, neither Open Sauce nor Radxa paid anything, nor did they have any input into this video-however I did recieve the Radxa Penta SATA HAT featured in this video for review, as well as the Pineberry Pi boards.
My build included the following (some links are affiliate links):
- Raspberry Pi 5 8GB: www.raspberrypi.com/products/...
- Radxa Penta SATA HAT: radxa.com/products/accessorie...
- TMEZON 12V 5A Power Adapter: amzn.to/3vB7dPR
- SanDisk Extreme 32GB microSD Card: amzn.to/3J2Cf6n
- Samsung 870 QVO SSDs: (NOTE: these went way up in price... I would recommend cheaper 2 or 4TB SSDs instead) amzn.to/4cI1fO4
- ThirdReality Zigbee Smart Plug Gen 2: amzn.to/4azSfbI
You have two options for 2.5 Gbps networking, if you want it. First, for all PCIe, and stackable boards:
- Pineberry Pi HatBRICK! Commander: pineberrypi.com/products/hatb...
- Pineberry Pi HatNET! 2.5G: pineberrypi.com/products/hatn...
But that will downgrade the PCIe connections to Gen 2.
The second option keeps Gen 3 speed for the disks and gets slightly better 2.5G performance (in fact, slightly better than the switch), using a USB 3 2.5G Ethernet adapter. I used this Plugable 2.5G adapter: amzn.to/4cGPxmF

A number of comments have asked about using a 2.5 Gbps USB 3 Ethernet adapter instead of the PCIe switch, which would allow me to run the disks at PCIe Gen 3 speed. I tested that with a Plugable 2.5G adapter (which is plug and play on the Pi 5), and you're right! I got 270 MB/sec writes for a 50 GB test folder, and 200 MB/sec reads. Check out the GitHub issue linked in the description for all the details. This little NAS just keeps getting better :)

@AngryAmericanWizard 25 днів тому
@@shapelessed You want a conductive material. Shielding is required for consumer PC's but because this is DIY it gets missed a lot. Processors put off EMI which can cause minor interference with wifi, bluetooth, etc and can cause other issues. That is why the FCC has guidelines, it's less of an issue the less energy is used but I'd still prefer some metal lining inside the wooden case. Plus if you're building an all SSD NAS might as well and make it as EMP resistant as possible.
@shapelessed 25 днів тому
@@AngryAmericanWizard I have already once built a similar NAS and the EMI has never yet been a problem, since the SoC only drew like 2W at highest and the drives were already shielded. But if it's such an issue, a metal mesh would probably be enough for any radiation the PI might produce. In fact, many small 4-port routers and APs commonly use plastic cases to help with signal strength, and they usually throw off more electricity into the air than the PI would.

I've built a NAS with this hat and Rock Pi 4B (that was long before Raspberry Pi 4 and Rock 4B does have that nvme slot with a few pcie lanes) but with 4 3.5” HDDs. Wiring them with SATA extender cables was funny, as the Chieftec chassis I've used has separate SATA data and power connectors. The 5V power supply on the hat is adequate: the datasheet for the step-down converter used on this hat specifies a maximum of 10A. So that's enough for the SBC and the drives (the 5V line is shared with SATA power). Overall a very solid and well-designed product. Too bad ARM means being limited to OpenMediaVault. It does run solid on Armbian so no quarrel here.

Radxa ROCK 3A was perfect for this build, 2x pcie 3.0 and 1x pcie 2.1, ideal for top board and 2.5G ethernet, SoC is limiting RAID performace, but still well over 2.5G. setup uses about 8W (I'm running this it for a while). I'm using 4A 12V for power, less waste. eSata is yet another sata for 3.5" drive. Useful for external big hdd with power. Probably You are using OMV7 which moved mdadm to external plugin. That is why there was no such thing in menu, easy to add. Btw, more interesting is quad sata hat, uses two usb3 but has HW RAID. You will get pcie for 2.5g ethernet or even almost 10G. Also You can get opposite of that. Any RK3588 is way better, support pcie bifurcation so you can get 6x sata and 10G nic, already has 2.5G, wifi slot still free (another 2.5G nic or 2x sata, or coral tpu), also eMMC is just way better than sd card.

They look like good options, though at the same price points, the value is a little reduced.

The Lite model is going to be a bit more annoying in terms of overall performance and desktop use, but could work out well in places where you don't need tiny desktop performance.

The issue with these PI competitors I find to be quite frequent is the utterly nonexistant software support. They either die off or shift the software support to some newer generations. There are driver issues and a bunch more problems. Sure, they are great, because they keep the PI foundation moving forward through competition, but I'd still pay a few dollars more to get a PI and a known ecosystem, with well-known and established software.

This is a neat little device. Prefect for a content creator just starting out on their channel as its MUCH cheaper than a standard NAS that typically takes big 3 1/2 NAS drives. Yes, those SSD's at that capacity can be pricey, but if you're gonna be doing content creation of some form it seems like a reasonable investment to me.

As an alternative that is already here. Due to adapters, anyone can fit up to 6 ssds in a $50 Thinkpad T430 or $100 W530 if you want 32GB ram capability. To get the 6 drive capacity, you need to get 2 sata to m.2 sata x2 adapters for the main drive and cdrom replacement. Ali express sells pc card to nvme adapters so you can mount a 2230 or 2242 nvme drive in the pc card slot. Add a msata drive to the wwan slot and you are done. I'm not sure about the T430 but the W530 has raid 1, 0, 5 and 10 available through bios after 1vyRain mod.

I feel like those things are ahead of their time. Why pay €1000 for an 8TB M.2 NVMe SSD when you can get an 8TB SATA SSD for €400? Even a single SATA SSD should be able to fill a 2.5gE Ethernet uplink almost 2x over again, let alone an array of them.

Wow! You could already do anything with the old raspberry pie, now it looks like you can do even more with the 5! Once again proving it's the most versatile dessert ever. Seriously though, I'd like to see this paired with a 4 bay hotswap 3.5" drive enclosure and some spinning rust drives. I'm currently in the market for replacing my Synology, and while this doesn't come close to meeting my requirements, it could definitely be an option for a tech person with lower-end needs. But a future version could be more interesting next time I'm looking for a NAS, especially looking at the trajectory of SSD prices.

24:58 didn''t watch everything yet, but before i forget, in OMV7 the software RAID management (mdadm) was moved to the plugin "openmediavault-md", or so i've heard.
@JeffGeerling 25 днів тому
OOOOH... so that explains why everyone's tutorial had it listed, but it's not in there by default? Seems a bit odd to take it out and not replace it with anything else for RAID, since that's my main use case for ever using OMV. The ZFS plugin seems mature enough, they could install that by default IMO.
@nurmr 23 дні тому
Also the documentation seemed to indicate that the drives needed to be wiped before RAID would work -- I'm not sure if that meant that the RAID option wouldn't even show up (I assume the plugin would need to be installed still though).

@keyem4504 24 дні тому
This is indeed a nice project. Great to see how far the PIs came. ZFS on one of these, wouldn't have thought that that's even an option. However, for a DIY NAS I'd go with a used Server like a Fujitsu Primergy or similar for ~70€ and TrueNas. This will be better in every dimension except power consumption.
@AuntJemimaGames 24 дні тому
I've been considering putting a NAS together myself, and using a spare raspberry pi to do it. One of the major drawbacks I see is potential corruption of the SD card on power loss, then you're looking at either the additional cost of another drive to run it on, or a UPS to ensure consistent power delivery. It seems the benefits of the pi in this use case outweighed by how cheap and performant budget prebuilt machines are now. Pi is an excellent choice for other hobby applications, but it seems like the inferior option unless you're trying to achieve the highest possible power efficiency.

My immediate thought when you enabled the SMB sharing was "oh, so they have improved SMB speed with Macs". Nice you caught that and retested with windows. I use sftp when pushing high volume data between Mac and Linux on the home network.
@magnawavezone 14 днів тому
MacOS Finder copies on SMB to samba in Linux can easily saturate 10G networking, but it seems (my working theory) is the finder is polling the remote server for updates a lot. So you need some addl CPU to handle the extra requests. Which likely the PI is running very close to its limits cannot handle without some slowdowns. Plus samba is single threaded per connection, so those extra requests take time away from the copy. But using a MacOS machine FOR benchmarking is real world if your intent is to use macOS as a client.
