Thing is: I've still got my old HP Gen8 #microserver which, while limited to 16GB RAM, is more than powerful enough for what I want to do with it. I stopped using it because of the power draw of the Xeon CPU and 4x spinning disks, but if I'm looking at spending ~£300 on a new system, how long will it take me to realise £300 worth of power savings, even with our crazy UK leccy prices?

HPE MicroServer — его хотел каждый, и как его сознательно убили
Привет, постоянные и не очень читатели! Если вам нравятся компактные железки, вроде plug-компьютеров (розеточных), различных mini ITX форм-факторов и других Raspberry Pi и Intel NUC, то вы удачно наткнулись на этот лонгрид :) Здесь я расскажу про некогда великий и ужасный маленький и прекрасный HPE ProLiant MicroServer . Посмотрим на путь от небольшой и любимой админами башни на базе AMD Athlon Neo до приплюснутого дорогущего сервера с внешним БП; пробежимся по всем поколениям MicroServer (от N36L до Gen11). Из этого лонгрида вы узнаете, как эта железяка сначала покорила сердца домашних админов и энтузиастов, а потом разбила их ко всем чертям. И в конце уже традиционный опрос :) Приятного чтения, друзья!

Qui veut des galères de démarrage ?
Saleté de #proxmox qui ne laisse pas choisir le partitionnement des disques (et le serveur ridiculement stricte). -

HomeLab [2025-06-02]: poorly server
After half-term week, where the hope of getting "adulty" things done gently fades into obscurity, I was chomping at the bit to crack on with #homelab tasks. I had various tasks ahead of me: Strip down and attempted to repair #MicroServer MS03 Install #Proxmox on three MicroServers Tidy and organise all cabling at the back of the cabinet Factory-reset the #Netgear #firewall…

My HP N54L MicroServer with TrueNAS is about 14 years old. As are the HDDs in it. It'll happily do ~90 MB/sec transfers on my Gigabit network as much as I ask it to. Pretty awesome if you think about it.

J'ai été confronté a un problème de lenteur lors de l'installation de Proxmox 8 via iLO sur un HP MicroServer Gen 8. Je vous montre comment remédier a ce problème. Il devrait être présent sur la plupart des OS récent (Debian 12). Bonne lecture !!

Мой сервер бэкапов
Дошли наконец-то руки сделать персональный сервер бэкапов, который будет стоять не у меня дома. С этой мыслью я уже несколько лет хожу, делал несколько подходов, но вот наконец-то звёзды сошлись — у меня и железка под него образовалась, и дисков в достаточном количестве, и ОС наконец-то более-менее подобрал. В качестве железа выбрал старенький HP Microserver Gen7. Продавать большого смысла не видел, куда-то в продакшн ставить тоже — он почти на любой чих под 100% загружается, если какие-то сервисы вешать или просто в несколько потоков файлы по гигабитной сети копировать. А вот с простым хранением файлов он ещё справится.

Boot times are SLOW (fine if it's on all the time, but not great if you're maintaining it). It currently has no hardware transcoding, and adding it is a pain. I want to add another drive (plan is for 4x HDD in RAID10 and 2x SSD in RAID1), but I'll need an HBA. If you don't want to boot off one of the main four SATA ports (where my RAID10 is) you have to do this weird setup where you put the bootloader on a USB stick or microSD card and then point it to another drive...

In other non-Psion projects, I really need to get on with rebuilding my home server.
I'm pretty settled on giving #FreeBSD a go for the first time (although I might revisit #microOS). The question is the hardware.
I've had a Gen8 #Microserver since new. The case size is perfect. It's had various mods: fan and controller, Ivy Bridge CPU, Noctua CPU cooler, PicoPSU. The PicoPSU has really improved power consumption over the stock PSU. Having an iLO is really handy, too.
However, has its issues.

For those who're interested, perhaps @withaveeay and @david, my Fediverse server is a Linux container running on a quad-core Intel N100 micro-server (see picture).
It's running Proxmox VE, currently with 4 LXC containers (including a GoToSocial server and a mail relay) and a full VM which is just acting as a docker host for a single docker container.
It uses about 9.5W at the wall when idle, blipping to 10.5W, and 15W when maxed out. The processor has a 6W TDP. The fan is usually off, and only comes on after a prolonged period of stress (once the case gets hot, it tends to stay hot), and it's pretty much silent. It could use a bit less power, but for some reason I felt the need to put 32GB of RAM in it, which currently is about 28GB more than I actually need 🤣

Moved from #Ubuntu to #Debian on my #HP #Gen8 #MicroServer recently and apart from needing the fix linked below, everything went pretty smoothly.

#Xeon E3-1265L v2 successfully installed in the #HP #Microserver #Gen8 🙂
It's the most powerful CPU this machine accepts, with four hyperthreaded cores (8 threads).
But it has a lower TDP than the i3 that it replaces !
