  1. 🐢 Wow, a 3D rack tour! Just what the world needed: a virtual field trip to stare at servers. 🚀 Who knew that walking through expensive hardware with a mouse click could be this exhilarating? 🙄 #TechInnovationOrSnooze

  3. While I'm posting obscure hardware woes in a time when buying hardware sucks, I need to get a server rack for my homelab. In general I know folks tend to hate wall mounted because it can hinder back access, but I don't have many options as space is limited.

    Looking at tripplite.eaton.com/smartrack-. I'm hoping to buy once, cry once and get a rack that'll last a while. Currently running 12 disks in a tower and looking to move to a netapp ds4246.

  4. The new server rack is almost alive! 🔋

    It features multiple Raspberry Pis running Podman containers, a dedicated backup server, and plenty of storage — basically a self-hosted powerhouse. 🗂️

    The custom PC frame at the bottom started as an OpenFrame case and now fits perfectly in the shallow rack. 🖥️

    Just a few parts left… can’t wait to see it fully operational. ⚙️

    Do you run your own server setup? 🪄

  5. Ah yes, because who hasn't looked at a server rack and thought, 🥬 "Perfect for lettuce!"? When you're so done with tech that turning to farming in a 42U cabinet makes sense, it's time to question life's choices. 🤔 Just imagine the networking possibilities... of irrigation! 🚿

  7. How janked would you say is welding a metal bracket to the case instead of trying to source the correct rails for server hardware?

    Asking for a friend of course. No server cases or brackets have been harmed (yet).

  9. Thinking about setting up a KVM. I'm sick of rearranging my rack everytime I need to access a server...

    Any KVM switch recomendations? And has anyone tried #pikvm

  11. My oven is *not* 19 inch wide and rack spacing is *not* 1.75 inches. Hm. Must be non-standard oven.

  12. Hat jemmand ein Server Rack den er nicht mehr braucht? #technology #server #serverrack #rack #free #giveaway #gift #fediGive

    Evtl dazu HP/Dell Server

  14. I've put the case in the rack. Didn't have rails, so it sits at the bottom. If I get Home Assistant working on TrueNAS, the Pi will be taken out. And if TrueNAS runs ok, the Synology will go to another place to act as a backup location. #TrueNAS #ServerRack

  15. After completing most of my second #10inchrack which was going to house my #RaspberryPi #Kubernetes cluster I've decided to go a different route. I'm building a 1U unit to house the Raspberry Pi's, so I'll have to figure out what to do with this little guy :nkoThink:

  17. Just cleaned and re cable managed my entire server rack... That was rough lol.

    Whole thing is clean now and ready for me to put a rack mounted switch in now, looks a bit crappy because I don't have any patch cables atm which I will get when I get the switch BUT it's all managed and ready for the switch to be just dropped in!

  18. Project #minirack is done :)
    The goal was to have a nice "living room capable" 10" rack to hold my #homeasssitant box with a touch display for smart home control, a network switch and a UPS.
    And no it is not living in the livingroom now, nor was it planned ;) I could have moved the network wiring to the back/inside, but in the end it needed a little nerd factor.

    Mostly made from laser cut plywood in #kumiko pattern that I spray painted black, and some 3D printed parts. All self designed/built except for the metal rails in the corners.
    And did I mention it's ALL powered by USB-C PD internally? 😍

  20. How does our testing environment work? 🤔 Our colleague Max will be happy to answer your question and explain what is being done and why it is necessary. And: If you have any ideas about what should be tested - please let us know in the comments! 👇

  23. Our new automated testing environment is ready! 🚀 Our colleague Max has gone all out and brought our new "server rack" to life. Thanks! Now: test our software more thoroughly, detect bugs faster, & fix them right away.🔧

  24. Just received a package

    I had ordered a m70q gen 2 thinkcentre 1 Liter mini pc with an 11400T for some low power docker containers and VM's such as home assistant and had already printed a rack mount holder.

    only to receive a P340 thinkstation tower with a 10900K instead which won't fit in my server rack.

  26. Was just able to obtain this 26U rack for €56 including shipping 😄
    The only con being a dent on one of the back panel.

    Now I just need to fill it with some equipment and do the cable management.

    I am debating whether to go for cage nuts or for the Patchbox /Dev/Mount which are a metal alternative to the rack studs duo.

  28. Finally got my new wooden server #rack! I can now move everything off the floor and return the office to something more respectable.

    It’s a 14U 19” rack, 55cm deep, custom build from the UK. Very affordable (half the price of the ugly Startech wooden cabinets) and can be customised a ton (wood/finish, height, depth and legs/wheels).

    It even got the wife approval, which is insane considering she only just convinced me to sell my 36U 100cm deep black monstrosity a year ago!
