Believe it or not all of this was less than $950. Mainly used ebay and Facebook madket place for some great deals. Order those smaller thiner patch cables, so that’s gonna get cleaned up well here soon.
I need to learn a lot more about hotspots for server racks and equipment and where to get decent deals.
I initially wanted to build a desktop to serve as a starter homelab but I fear that it will get outgrown very quickly and feel that maybe finding a cheap rack and building in it incrementally might be a better way of doing things.
That’s dope! How much storage have you got there?
Right now only 80TBs but I’m gonna keep adding more soon
Whatcha doing with dem dere Pi’s? I like that 1U doohickey you have there for em. Also, I see lots of folks using the CyberPower 2U UPS like yours? Are they good? Must be probably? I’ve seen quite a few user posts using that or similar CyberPower units. UniFi goodness. This foto cured my OCD for the day, thank you very much :)
That’s a very decent setup. What are you running on it?
Did you measure how much this adds to monthly electricity cost? Do you mind sharing
What’s the wattage like on that puppy?
The D71 is an awesome idea, which I am instantly stealing. Thanks a lot!
Fix your defective ram and hdd!
