Jun 5, 2023 · Absolutely. Its just standard server hardware running Linux and some custom scripts on top. If you're keeping it for Datto backups, would recommend reinstalling as to Siris Imaged so you can put in any hardware without Datto Support getting uppity about upgrade paths and such. If you want to install any other OS for other purposes, that works too.

Jun 20, 2023 · I pulled out a 5 year old datto siris3 s3b1000 and was able to create a local account with new login credentials. Logged in a couple of days ago just fine. Today I wanted to replace the two 1TB drives with two 4TB drives.

Dec 7, 2022 · The scrapper whom I get my units from has had some broken NAS boxes from Datto. They looked identical to the U-NAS 410. I imagine they would be able to fit any ITX board wtih an integrated CPU, just like the U-NAS. I don't know if Datto puts the J3455-ITX board into them or a different board, though. Coincidentally (before coming accross the ...

Sep 25, 2018 · Hello, curious as to if anyone has ever successfully decommission a Datto box (such as an SL1000) and been able to remove the security put in place to turn it into some form of NAS box or a storage device?

Apr 26, 2024 · I got a Datto Siris S3B3000 for free. I found the specs to be an Intel Xeon D 1521, 32GB ram and a 250 PSU. I opened it up and noticed it does have an open PCIe slot. "If" I am able to fit a gpu in there through some jankery (say a quadro P2000), and the PSU can handle this power draw. Would this cpu be able to handle running plex with all the ...

Nov 15, 2023 · s3b1000 gpu? Hey guys, I recently picked up an old used S3B1000 unit with the intentions of installing truenas and using it as a backup/plex server. I don't have the unit in front of me, but I know it has no external expansion slots, and I haven't opened the case yet, so I don't know with absolute certainty, but it looks like from what I can ...

Jun 22, 2023 · Its like Datto pigeon holes the customer into not upgrading and sacrificing full backup and recovery because the current appliance and inept storage and insane pricing to upgrade. This causes the prior MSP to take shortcuts, or prevents them from upgrading into the correct sized appliance they SHOULD have, and thats a dangerous place to be!

Nov 29, 2022 · I am attempting to get into the BIOS of our organization's Datto SIRIS 4 Pro. A previous MSP had set it up for them. I've read just about every post on Reddit and the internet about this, "R@ster", "Northern", and "NorthernLight$" do not work. DATTO support was very helpful on the first call, offered to escalate it and everything.
