Cum arata home serverul vostru?

Vezi r/homelab . LE3: am avut synology DS920+ dar era overkill cu Home Assistant in Synology (6GB ram se evaporau practic). Iar Plex in Synology la un film 1080 e o gluma, daramite sa pui un 4k mai ales ca nu are placa video dedicata. Eu am server sh cu 64GB ECC cu Intel cu 10 coreuri si 20 Threadur

Bought a SSD for 1300$ last week. Order got canceled because they were "out of stock". They're suddenly back in stock for twice the amount (2880$). Thanks a lot AI buble...

If I'm not mistaken, there are scripts to get rid of the Synology requirement. But it's some BS that Synology still requires branded SSDs. When I upgrade from my 920+ it's not going to be a Synology NAS.

Best way of storing backups with a single node?

I have a single PVE node, consisting of a 1 liter/usff Dell Micro box. One m.2 (120GB) for the host OS, one SSD (1TB) for the guest VMs and LXCs. Beyond that, data storage - including backups - is on my Synology DS920+ NAS, over gigabit ethernet. No, it's not the most high performing system out ther

Beginner here - Synology sounds like an amazing ecosystem, but it also feels like a lot of people are jumping ship. Could someone offer insight?

Use any factory built NAS, strictly as a NAS and it'll be awesome. Synology specifically screwed their brethren by forcing the purchase of drives that are 2x the price of an identical drive from another manufacturer. Period. The NAS and OS are very nice and friendly. So. I'd still recommend Synology

What's your setup?

I've got a Mac Mini that is the brains of my stack and currently storing everything on a Synology DS920+ with... 36 TB of storage (I had to check). It all lives on there. At some point this year I hope to replace the Synology with at least one Ubiquiti NAS. I only need it for storage at this point a

How to migrate from linuxserver's docker image?

Because it eats unnecessarily my resources of my little NAS (Synology DS920+). Constantly 20% CPU and 3gb RAM. After that memory and swap is full and baaaam, freezing. Switched now to offical qbittorrent-nox, problem gone!

Got my 42U Rack delivered today

I'm using the DS920+ right now, but I've been thinking about upgrading to something with 10GbE and enough power to seamlessly transcode 4K remux movies. I've looked at the UniFi NAS, but I haven't really done much research on it yet. And yeah, I read about the hard drive fiasco. Someone at Synology

Synology NAS Experts, would you get a NAS just for storage purposes?

I run some containers on it. But even with having added additional memory however doing that much more with my ds920+ is likely not really going to fly, as running windows within VMM is rather slow and tedious. But still have to add some ssd to the mix, after having added additional memory, to impro

Your best settings & recommendations for self-hosting immich?

Nice, I am thinking to utilize my pi5 8G for the same. However I have immich setup in Synology 920+ docker, which is very slow at the moment. By migrate the database to Pi5 docker, hope the browsing speed will be improve.

Any Advice? (Please)

Personally if you want to learn and tinker, I reccomend proxmox. You can run as many virtual machines as your ram allows which means you can separate out one for your production server, and other for testing and tinkering. This of course adds a whole level of complexity to learn. It can help that it
