@Ruby_Witch Love the focus on low power usage! Definitely something I want to improve at. Will definitely post when I get the M1 setup, it's such a powerful little machine.

Three cheap Dells running a 22T (85% full) Ceph cluster on NixOs with Calibre, Plex, Sonarr, Radarr, and Bazarr scattered between the three.

Pi-Hole on a Pi 4.

That's about it. Most of my other services are running on NixOs boxes in DreamHost.

Next projects are: put in a back plane for the Ceph cluster, get Home Assistant working, get some Raspberry Pis or computers for a NVMe metadata cluster, build a proper server rack.

@dmoonfire I used to have Sonarr and Radarr setup a while back, it was amazing, maybe I’ll look into that again.

A server rack is high on my list, well actually a building out a full server room first. Have plenty of room in the unfinished part of the basement to frame one out.

I don't know what half those words mean, congrats you are a true IT nerd and your plaque is coming in the mail 😜

I have a single homebuilt "server" running Rocky Linux, with an eight-core AMD Ryzen 7, 64 GB DDR4 memory, and two 1 TB storage drives. I use KVM and QEMU to deploy VMs--I don't know enough about containers yet to feel comfortable running them as production machines.

TP-Link Archer A7 Wifi Router (16 MB flash / 128 MB RAM) running OpenWRT. That's it, that's my server. Serves Gemini, FTP, DNS ad blocking, Mumble, WireGuard, IRC, etc. My desktop runs a Celeron J4005. Do I win power consumption?

🖥️ devalexwhite [OP/mod] · 2023-06-17 at 13:27:

@winduptoy that’s so cool! I know about open-wrt, but does it give you ssh access? Is that how you got a Gemini server on it?

You guys are seriously inspiring me to lower my power consumption haha.

@devalexwhite yep, it's a full Linux system. It has a package manager with a lot of popular packages, but getting a Gemini server installed was a challenge. With only 16MB flash I couldn't install a compiler, and cross-compiling for MIPS with their virtual dev environment was too complicated and required something like 14GB download. Luckily, Go's cross-compile support is great and I was able to easily compile Molly Brown and copy the binary over.

I've rationalised my network recently. I have a FritzBox router with v7.50 OS, so it now runs a Wireguard VPN and a media server, and it hosts an HDD for network backups and media storage. I've Raspberry Pis for ssh, my Gemini server and PiHole DNS adblocker. All minimum power - electricity is expensive now for services operating 24 hours a day - and I have the router turn off the WiFi during the night.

What’s everyone running in their homelab? I’m just getting started with mine, but here’s what I have so far: Unraid running on a Pentium G3220/16 GB RAM/2x4TB box I built in college PiHole docker on Unraid NextCloud docker on Unraid Agate Gemini server on a Ubuntu Server VM on the NAS Ubiquiti Dream Machine SE for routing and as an NVR with a 4Tb drive 3 Ubiquiti U6 Lite PoE APs 3 Ubiquiti G5 Flex PoE cameras 1 Ubiquiti G4 Instant WiFi camera I’ve got a M1 Mac Mini I’m looking to throw Asahi...
