Toss snails Star (1)

Thursday on April 23rd, 2020Net Web

In fact, I only recently learned to associate snails Star, and was attracted to this price, spend two or three hundred dollars can buy a multi-bay chassis, 4G memory, 16GSSD also includes power supply board and so the whole thing, though from the mine, many accessories are cottage industries, but such a cheap price, used to play, to be a NAS or soft route or something, are very cost-effective, I personally feel very values.

I bought the D section, in fact, there are 4 snail Star appearance, online detailed configuration comparison, but almost all the same configuration, the card is simply the difference between single and double models and network ports, it is recommended to buy the card i211, in general D models are the most expensive, because it did not take long for the mine, purity is the best, when I got the hand that almost overturned, mainly transport process extrusion, there are power burst open a little, apart from outside the machine really new, only slight wear, interior and chassis fan dust that can be said at all.

???

fan

Generally snail Star comes with cooling fans are very noisy, so the first thing is another silent fan, the fan speed is only 1200, after the change more quiet.

??

power supply

Snail Star power also I am more tangled things, is also a no-name brand cottage, also heard of this brand, I open the power look, feel layout is reasonable, at least better than I expected, but it feels more general use of materials, weight very light, afraid burst ah! This power is simply to interstellar snail design, including wire, it does not have the graphics power lines, power supply lines only motherboard, CPU power supply line and two big 4pin hard drive power supply line.

??

Ever since the Internet to find a 1U Delta disassemble the power of 400W, though not new, but that is the manufacturers, but also more at ease with the original estimate is 200W with four hard drives can not afford, and now should be 400w enough of, the component is also heavier than the original, not very satisfied with the voice of the fan is still a little big, but have to rely toss, first endured to accept it. If there is not bad money can buy the whole module, this will reduce a lot of useless lines, convenient cable management and saves space, such as my power lines and more, finishing more trouble, and only the protection of the cooling fan remove the cover, or hard to plug in the power supply line is difficult.

hard disk

There are a number of 2T on hand Western red plate, snail interstellar seller even made screws, lock the hard disk box directly on it, the money to buy a combination of multiple hard drives RAID, there is a reason for this is uncertain stability of this machine exactly how to test for some time to say it. Built-in power lines are very general, for a power line at right angles, so that the wall can save space. Because the machine is still very new, I did not remove the motherboard and SSD and did not give to the CPU painted grease. SSD performance is very general, but if used to hold the NAS system and the soft route, then it is possible.

??

Synology

Incidentally, with snails Star experience a Synology DSM, really powerful, Synology involved here do not do something elaborate, now install Synology is also very convenient, are combo, do not need U disk, and some even can be washed, I am here only for testing and use, long-term use is recommended OpenMediaVault install U-NAS, or open source.

to sum up

Wire workmanship and materials not online so bad some say, the heat is not too large, after the change of power supply and fan noise is not large, do NAS performance quite enough. NAS recommended for experience and toss with the soft route, as if important data storage still have to be careful, I mainly used to store files and video surveillance as home video storage center. Currently used for some time is still very stable, pure toss Taiwan wants to buy, but in fact A section is also good, the price is the cheapest, there is a 2.5-inch SSD bay, can do a HTPC.
