homelab

I'm using old laptop as a home server....

Hey, y'all!...

I just recently got 1 gigabit up/down at home when they put in fiber....

Some background: I have a Synology NAS already with plenty of space on it. It runs my Jellyfin server in a docker container. I also have a Raspberry Pi 3b running Pihole....

I currently have my reverse proxy on my NAS. That means I forward all of my 443 HTTPS traffic to my NAS. I am using OpnSense for my router, and there are several options for reverse proxies on that. Everything works the way it is now, but I do wonder if it would be "better" if I moved all of the reverse proxy stuff to my router....

Looking to build my first server out, trying to figure out if there is a "better" platform for my needs. Right now I'm just planning a mix of machines and containers in Proxmox for running a NAS and Plex server, router of some sort (also, any preferences on wireless access points?), a pihole if that's not just as easily done in...

Does this look like a decent starting point for a first router build?...

So I was wondering, what is exactly the use case of owning a server rack with huge CPUs and 256GB of DDR4 RAM with 1PB of storage?...

Hello all!...

Having got my Raspberry Pi for Christmas, I was finally able to enter the world of home labs and I'm slowly getting everything up and running....

I have a network set up something like the following:...

I am able to fit an HDD and an SSD in the drive bays that it came with. However, I'd like to put as many HDDs in it as I can....

As I'm in the beginning steps of sorting out my homelab, I'm starting to ask questions I haven't asked before and come across conundrums I hadn't considered previously. One of which is how to sort out pi-hole given that my ISP has locked down the router tighter than a tight thing....

I have a small client on the side that I am looking to get more durable off-site backups done. I personally use restic and resticprofile in my homelab without issue. The issue is that I would like to give them some kind of GUI and from what I see, none of the restic ones will do it....

I have a P400 in my storage server which currently also runs some media containers like Plex, sonarr-sma, radarr-sma, Jellyfin, exploring Immich, etc. I have the GPU surfaced via docker and added it to each of the containers that needed access to the GPU for hardware acceleration needs. Is it possible to be able to leverage the...

Two friends and I would like to build a PC as a server in my house. The idea would be to have a headless server with 3 VMs. I was wondering what would be the best thing to do so that everyone could have their own private space, while optimizing disk space as much as possible (1TB M.2 SSD + 8TB HDD via RAID1)....

I recently stated out loud that my homelab was stable, and now my UPS is posting less than 30 minutes of estimated normal load. What's everyone using as a UPS?...

I'm curious how much people are interested in using this? I see posts are fewer, especially if compared to reddit....

It seems good based on the price of just the CPU. If it's good, what kind of server case would it need?

Not that this hasn't been asked before, but what are your favorite NAS cases on 2023?...

I am still very much a novice in the self-hosting space, Linux etc. having fairly recently switched from using macOS as my daily driver and not tinkering much at all....
