#rackserver — Public Fediverse posts

While looking for new hardware for our home server (a 19'' mini rack server is very tempting...), I just came across project #minirack

10" rack server builds using a mix of off-the-shelf commercial and #diy #3dprinted mounts, panels, frontplates etc.

Looks interesting (and the mini racks are also rather cute).
Maybe interesting to some of you.

This holiday season, an old Big Iron gets a CPU upgrade, and a tiny #OpenWRT wireless bridge for remote management. One more saved from the #ewaste pile.

So there seem to be 28TB #HDDs available already.. And here I was surprised that I could pick up a 24TB disk after thinking 22TB was the largest you could buy.

I know that there's those SMR 32TB drives as well but I want to stick with CMR for the new #NAS.

Now having 3 of them means I can setup my new #unraid parity (at 2 disks) and have a single data disk for the pool. Also being that I'm using 28TB disks I should have close to a 220TB raw pool once I'm done adding all 10 disks.

I also picked up 2 4TB NVMe drives for the cache pool that I'll run in mirrored mode, so the new server should have a decent amount of throughput. I'll stick in the 10Gbe ethernet adapter I saved from my old Threadripper system but that means I might need another switch in the office that provides 10Gbe RJ45 😅

Frage an die Server Expert:innen hier im Fediverse: Könnt ihr einen Online-Shop für vorkonfigurierte 19" #RackServer empfehlen (private Nutzung)? Vor allem im Sinne von Preis-Leistung.

Empfehlung für einen konkreten Server (Typ/Modell) sind natürlich ggf. auch sehr willkommen 😊

Über einen Boost würde ich mich sehr freuen!

Danke!
