Description

## Hardware
A Ryzen 7 7700 powered hard mount NAS with 6x 4 TB WD Red Plus hard drives in RAIDZ2. Using AMD (and this ASRock motherboard) allows me to get ECC on a consumer CPU platform. The hard drive mounts are [3D printed](https://www.printables.com/model/142325-10-rack-harddrive-mount) out of PETG. Unfortunately, due to the PCIe slot being occupied by the HBA card, I am unable to install an NVIDIA or Intel GPU for hardware-accelerated video encoding and transcoding, so it is all brute-forced on the Ryzen 7.

[Here](https://pcpartpicker.com/user/KellyNyanbinary/saved/xC8kjX) is the part list.

## Software
TrueNAS SCALE
- SMB (which I use for backing up OneDrive)
- Jellyfin
- Immich (for backing up iCloud photos using my phone as an intermediary)
- Auxiliary apps
- Cloudflared for a reverse proxy for remote access
- MakeMKV
- File Browser

Everything is then also backed up to Backblaze B2.
