This is the BEST video on youtube about this awesome topic (an openmediavault NAS with a RPi 4 with 8 gig ram, boot from the microSD, & a SATA 2.5 SSD) my $100,000 question is with a brand new SATA 2.5 SSD, Do you format the unused (not formatted) drive? with an RPi Linux doesn't already know what to do with the drive. When does this solid state drive have an assigned a file system to it? I would appreciate help with this, my project is NOT working and I keep returning brand new SSDs because I can't mount them in OpenMediaVault.

Worked like a charm, thank you so much for this excellent guide! OpenMediaVault is great, finally no more fiddling with mounting, Samba configurations or Windows access issues. Additional hint for those wanting to connect an existing NTFS formatted drive: 1) Make sure the drive label contains no blank space. 2) In the "Filesystem" configuration step, use OpenMediaVault's "Mount" instead of "Create" function. 3) In the "Shared Folders" step, set the relative path to "/".

Hi Chris, I built one of these and it worked perfectly with OMV5 with Linux and Windows laptops. I'm now using OMV6 which works with all the Windows laptops however none of the Linux machines can see the NAS. Could you do a video showing how to set up NFS?

<<@bobrae3350
says :
A great video that has enabled me to set up a Pi5 as an OMV7 as a NAS drive for Windows PCs, but I'm frankly stumped when it comes to trying to access the Pi5 NAS drive from another Raspberry Pi. Can you do that using SMB/CIFS or do you have to use NFS - and, if so, how? The next time you do an OMV video it might be worth considering connecting to Linux and Windows systems. All the best, Bob.

Hi Chris - I were trying the other day to install OMV on a Raspberry Pi, but I have a external hard drive, already full of content. I can only find videos or documentation of creating a new share on a empty formatted drive, but nowhere a guide/tutorial how to share a drive with content already on it. It would be wonderful if you can do another tutorial for RPI with OMV and add a tutorial to show how to share an existing drive with content, instead of formatting a new drive to share. Since this tutorial of yours is now 1 year old about, maybe an updated one will be great. Like your videos, informative, professional, as always!

Greetings to you! If you ever wondered whether your 'old' presentations had been revisited, you'll be happy to know that they definitely have! For several months, I've been tinkering with a Nextcloud installation on my Raspberry Pi 4 (in an Argon One V2 box, of course). It works, it's pretty, but there's always a little something that gets in the way. On reflection, I watched this video again and installed OMV 7. Everything's humming along beautifully, no problems at all, we're not talking about it any more! Thank you so much!

I finally got this to work and it's great! I can now back up all my data and also that data is available to any device connected to my local network (and that means multiple computers and phones by wifi too). However, it has been a bit of a struggle, which I would like to share, in the hope that this may help others. 1) Install Legacy Bullseye and NOT the current Bookworm version. I chose 64-bit Legacy LITE for a Raspberry Pi 4 (8GB). 2) Most annoying was that the script would stop with this error: "openmediavault package failed to install or in a bad state". 2a) I checked the SSD on Windows, and found the drive would not show at all. Not faulty, but need to be assigned a drive letter by using Disk Manager. I then formatted the drive. Transferred the SSD to a Linux machine and formatted again with ext4 file system. 2b) Instead of typing the tinyurl command, I instead typed the github command given in the acompanying documentation link. That did the trick. In the future I would like to explore a rsync incremental backup method. Bye for now, John Robert Smith.

Thx to that very helpful video. I was now able to get my NAS to work through the video. Although I had some difficulties when using Putty, the entry for the SSH connection was NOT integrated as a group at root. But I managed it. Now I wanted to ask if you could create a video of how I integrate an external HDD that already contains data in order to then access it in the system. I'm not coming back. My hard drive is constantly displayed to me, but I can ONLY access the free space on the HDD, but not the existing data. It would be very nice of you if a video like this could be made. Thanks in advance. And thank you for all the work and effort you put into your videos. I use a Raspberry PI4 8 GB and OVM6.

Sir. I have been a fan for years. I truly enjoy your videos, as they are clear and explain the theory as well as the end goal in a way that is easy to comprehend and flow. To many you tubers spend to much time just filling the videos with fluff to run the clock out. Or spend endless hrs’ talking about how intelligent they are and never getting to the point of the project. I have made many of your projects, and enjoy them all. A few years ago I set up OMV on a Pi 4 via one of your tutorials. One thing I have always wanted to do was replace the USB drive with a RAID system. OMV will not let you RAID Usb drives. Put the new Pi 5 has that PCIe slot so I was thinking,, Hint Hint! Thanks and keep up the great work! Tony

<<@minigpracing3068
says :
An update to this... OMV 6.9.x will not install on Bookworm yet. It errors out and tells you that you need to use Bullseye. Also, be aware that if you set your Pi up to use wifi, OMV might turn that off. I started via ssh on wifi, after installing OMV and reboot my Pi was no longer on the wifi. I had to connect a cable to get back in which wasnt really convenient for the work I was doing. Something people should consider when they start this process. Going to add Jellyfin after I get OMV set up.

Absolutely amazing video for someone like me, who is very new to Linux! I used this video to set up OMV6 on my Raspberry Pi with great success! I've been just using it as a LAN server to share one HDD between a few different Windows 10 machines and it's been wonderful! However, I ran into a huge problem today! I logged into OMV and it mentioned I had 60-some updates to do. I thought it would be fine to go ahead and do those. Everything updated, got an error that through searching the web, I resolved by simply clearing my cookies. Now everything looks the exact same as how I had it set up before. NONE of my machines can access my shared folder anymore! None of my settings seem to have changed, I'm able to access my Pi via SSH and log into OMV through my browser, but I cannot get any of my machines to connect to my Pi or see my shared folder anymore. Did something perhaps change in the past few months that would necessitate me changing... settings?

I installed Rpi OS lite 32 bit, updated, upgraded, ran the omv install and it stops at [omvinstall] Unsupported version, Only Debian 10 (Buster) and 11 (Bullseye) are supported. Exiting... I went to OMV page and ran their installer command and got same message, so I take it Rpi OS is now running a new version that OMV doesn't support yet?

I attempted this in October 2023 and failed; my first issue was not using the legacy Buster W/O desktop (there are newer ones); then I got the message "unable to fetch some archives...failed to install openmediavault package."

4:18 other note: you want to install the 64bit version of the os if you plan on playing with docker containers (supported in gui by omv) in the future. most docker images are only available for armv8 64bit os (not just the kernel but also the rest of the os, use getconf LONG_BIT to make sure), thats why im currently reinstalling omv and going through a long backup process (just in case im not able to reconnect the shared folders)

Chris, you're a godsend. I watch other's videos for a "rough cut" at what I'm attempting, and then look your channel up. Your video-quality and narration set you apart. Clear and spare enunciation and that British wry humour serve to put the listener at ease. No squinting to read poorly chosen fonts or hand-draw diagrams in stomach-churning colours. Invariably you choose sane options for any software you're explaining or demonstrating thus saving me inadvertently making lunatic selection(s). God does not necessarily always protect fools and newbies! Keep the excellent work up and ignore those saying otherwise. Enjoy Summer 2023 knowing that your work is valued

In the year, plus since this video has been posted, I suspect something in this process has broken. Two years ago, I followed the previous (OMV5) video which worked flawlessly. I followed OMV6 video to the letter, except the beginning RP OS used in this vid, flashing a new SD card each time. Then swapped in Pi used in OMV5. Still failed exact same way, at least 6 times: "E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1) "failed to install openmediavault package." Then, I came across the RP OS image used in my OVM5 install (2021-05-07-raspios-buster-armhf-lite) started with that and THAT worked. However, instead of OMV6, OVM5 (5.6.26-1) was installed. The result was identical with both the two year old board and the two week old board. (Always swap parts, one at a time, when error trapping!) I could not locate an image for the RP OS you used (2022-04-04, my ideal staring point for replicating a successful install with OMV6) and my failed installs began with 2023-05-03-raspios-bullseye-armhf-lite image. I can only surmise that this newer OS version is what breaks the OMV installation process. ADD'L: Found 22-04-04. Ran thru process. Failed just as before.
