  1. #TIL: if you have 2 disks, one slow and one fast in an LVM software RAID 1, you can configure the LV to only read from the faster disk, but write to both. Obviously you won't reach the writing performance of the faster drive, but you'll read much faster. Perfect fit for a #HomeLabServer with just one NVME and one SATA. #Linux

  2. So, I'm considering taking some risks and leaning into setting up AD and domain on my home network, with my homelab.

    I'm concerned about what risks I should watch out for, and things I should keep in mind while setting it up and configuring it. My only hands on experience with setting that stuff up, was in a lab setting for one of my classes for school, and it was a very basic overview, and didn't cover the security risk side of things.

    I don't really have a huge need or reason to do this, largely just curious about the setup and management of a dozen or so computers on a small network like this.

    Also concerned about configuring my network shares for Android devices that exist on the network, that access the shares for media streaming as well.
