I can confirm the ARM issue, I’m a newbie and I recently set up a NAS on an RPi 5.

I might be impressed if it wasn’t so fucking overhyped. It’s good at some stuff, it’s not very good at most of the other stuff. Stop shoving it down my throat.


It is a component of the keyboard shortcuts I use to swap between virtual desktops and snap windows to the left/right side.


I smell fear.


Looking forward to Louis Rossmann’s inevitable video on this.


Just bought a refurbished thinkpad for $350 that has windows 11 because I need it for school and work unfortunately. My quite-capable-yet-still-incompatible-with-windows-11 9-year old chonky thinkpad P51 is going to be my Linux-only computer that lives on my workbench.
For the time being I’m content with my little raspberry pi 5 running debian. I can stream 4K on my home network and that’s all the performance I need for now.


Glad I started out with Jellyfin

I like Slate but it’s not enough range for me
I still have my reservation but I’m tempted to switch to Telo
Aptera LFG!!!


People keep saying the Pi is CPU limited but it hasn’t gotten over 10% between all 4 cores while I’ve been transferring files. 16GB of RAM doesn’t seem very limited to me either. Thanks for the link!


Just getting my feet wet. I have plenty of other uses for a Pi so if the NAS doesn’t work out that’s fine, I’ll get something else. Worst case I’m out $70-ish for the Raxda SATA hat. Something is seemingly not right with my config, I haven’t gotten the Pi to break a sweat yet. Thanks for your input though.


16GB of RAM. I figured it might be overkill but I went all-in anyways.


I don’t know what ARC is and my searches so far haven’t helped. The CPU usage is pretty low, on htop is rarely passes 10%.
Edit: I asked chatGPT what it means, this seems like exactly the setting I was hoping to find. I’ll check it out and post an update.
Edit2: I changed the ARC size to 8GB and it definitely seems to have gotten slower.


I guess the Radxa Penta SATA hat would be considered the controller.


I haven’t seen more than maybe 32MB/s. The transfers I’ve done are all on my local network from my desktop to my NAS which is plugged into my router. I have samba installed, my NAS shows up as a network drive just fine and I’ve just been dragging/dropping on my desktop GUI. Before setting up RAID, when I did this I would get around 200MB/s. The Pi has 16GB of RAM and I’m using less than 1.5GB while making a large transfer from my desktop to the NAS.
I’ve been meaning to try it and a couple days ago I realized it was already in my Steam library.
