Just get a w series chipset board you tards
Blame the board vendors for not selling them in decent enough quantity if they are hard to find

thoughts on raid1/mirroring? seems like a waste to throw away 50% of storage compared with other options, but at the same time really easy to do expansions, just add 2 more drives each time

>>101312691
That's a nice price

>>101312693
An i3-13100 doesn't support ECC regardless of board.
Just get a Xeon E-2314 / Xeon E-2324G / Xeon E-2334 / Xeon E-2414 / Xeon E-2434 or similar if you want a low-end server CPU with ECC.

>>101312699
Mandatory.

>>101312693
If I'm spending that much on a board, I might as well just go with a SOC like an atom. Purely for a 10 HDD ZFS pool NAS, I don't really need a shitton of CPU power (unless I'm retarded which I may be as I bought these drives without checking my two current cases)

sorry, i meant raid1/mirroring compared with raidz-2 or something like that where you don't lose so much storage, but it's a mess to expand. also heard it's not good to use raidz-2 with anything bigger than 1TB drive, but that sounds really small for the current year?

>>101312873
RAID10 (striped mirrors) for HDDs nonetheless, because they are too slow to be used with anything else. Drives can be any size
My opinions there: >>101295034.

yes, it seems like striped mirrors is the best solution, just losing 50% of storage makes me sad but i'll have to deal with it.

okay /hsg/ I had the stupid torrent question last thread,
I've created a torrent using the CLI as a test, however
I cannot load the torrent into qbt, as the webUI only allows me to upload things from my client pc, when I transfer the torrent file to my client pc to load it into qbt, it sits at 0% and stalled

>>101313042
>>>/g/sqt/
You have to enable uPnP for first time seeding, or, DMZ your host
None of the above are recommended by any means
Also, have you added your torrent to a tracker?

>>101313088
I know all that shit
Normally it should show 100%seeding even if there's an incorrect tracker url/not uploaded, just 0 peers
qbt thinks I don't even have the files now

It's literally not up to the CPU
It's why Ark doesn't mention ECC on the CPU pages anymore for 13th gen. It's chipset dependent

Finally setup ssh for my Cisco switch. The need for adding a local ssh config so that I can use insecure KexAlgorithms was a little surprising. Is it possible to use key authentication instead of password btw?

Also, I set the domain name with 'ip domain name home.lab', but it's not like I'm able to do ssh user@home.lab with it, so what is it for? 'domain-name' didn't work in the command, so I tried without the hyphen instead, so maybe I didn't do what I was hoping to do?

Help me avoid taxes guys. What do you do when you ship from China to Europe on ebay?

vyI currently have a RPi4 serving as a NAS, another RPi4 download torrents to this NAS, then Kodi on my Android TV to access the medias, I use ZeroTier on the NAS and on my laptop or smartphone to access my NAS.
I'm replacing all my RPi at home with a single Synology, and so the question of using Plex instead of Kodi + SMB / MPV/VLC + SMB over ZeroTier is popping.
I delete my medias after watching them, I'm the only user so far (wife doesn't care too much about this), I'll replace ZeroTier with WireGuard (wg-easy).
Also I won't be home for a month soon, with meh internet connection, I'll probably grab a CCwGoogle TV with everything already installed and setup instead of plugging my laptop.

Is Plex a better solution ? I don't see the need of transcoding so far.

Is there a better/alternative solution for music ?

>>101313344
Retard. Not only it is chipset dependent, it depends on the CPU. 13400 and below, and F SKUs don't support ECC, but others do, and you can find ECC memory support listed in Ark for the 13th generation for the CPUs which support it.

Im too scared to port forward wdid

>>101313392
>Is it possible to use key authentication instead of password btw?
Yes,

ip ssh pubkey-chain

in (config) mode.
>Also, I set the domain name with 'ip domain name home.lab', but it's not like I'm able to do ssh user@home.lab with it, so what is it for?
Hostname resolution. Equivalent of "search" option of

/etc/resolv.conf

on GNU/Linux.
>Defines a default domain name that the Cisco IOS software uses to complete unqualified host names (names without a dotted-decimal domain name). Do not include the initial period that separates an unqualified name from the domain name.

all of them, that includes JMicron, AsMedia and Marvell.
Sadly those NAS boards mostly have Atoms, which have very few IO (typically 2 SATA and very few PCIe lanes). If you have 4x or 8x PCIe slot you could use an HBA SAS card to add more SATA drives.

>>101313851

It sounds like I could just build a cheap mini ITX Linux PC with a few drives and set up samba. I'm just looking for cheap data redundancy and low idle power. Any suggestions other than just building something myself? Looking for <= $1000

Synology DiskStation DS923+
But the drives will put you over a grand.
I guess you could get one of the Synology 2-Bay DiskStation DS723+ nas boxes and throw a pair of 18gb drives in there , that would keep you under a grand if you shop around for drives

>have a few devices with 2.5GbE support

>>101316010

I looked into Synology but it feels a little ZOG'd to me. I don't want whatever box I buy/build to be accessible outside my home VLAN. And I certainly don't want apps and cloud services phoning home. Is it possible to configure Synology devices/"cloud" to be locked down with no telemetry? Sorry, I haven't read much about it, but their landing page implies needing to adopt a bunch of Synology branded software and tools.

I don't want Windows managing anything with my large disks. Had to have something else take over the windows' controller/driver just so a disk would stop making concerning sounds randomly.

>>101315685
>>101316069
How many disks?
1+backup can be handled with any SFF you get off ebay. Mirrored pair can be done with a specific variety of HP SFF. But both could get you access to a pcie connected jbod if you wish to expand later. Or run a raw cable mess like the other anon suggested.
Between 4 disks and 12, diy is probably best. After that you're likely to end up with used rackmount.

Hey now, no one said he couldn't clean it up and present it neatly. A couple of zipties, some sleeves, a 3D printed box for the drive slot hotswap enclosure. I bet you can find a 12v wall wart for the the SATA/molex power situation too.

>>101316831
For DIY (not that guy btw) that I plan to stash in my home office, do you have any recommendations for quiet and preferably also high-capacity HDDs?

I have an abundance of SATA with 8 ports total on my mobo, but only 12 available Pcie 3.0 lanes max across 2-3x M.2 slots, in which I somewhere need to account for a mirrored boot drive config. Being also a poorfag, with SSDs being too expensive to buy in any capacity >1.92TiB, I worry I might have to use my M.2 slots for boot then pretty much all-mechanical with <10TB 5x00 rpm drives in the rest to make the noise level tolerable, giving me a slow NAS in the end with ultimately very little space (as I need to set half of these things as mirrors).

My last experience with mech drives was a 1TB WD blue and the driver going “thunk” drove me mental, but apparently this is way worse now and if you stuff a DS923+ with WDGS Enterprise drives it’ll vibrate off a damn table.

Is it one of those boards that will only do x16/x4 instead of x8/x8? Most PCI-E things do graceful performance degradation if you give them fewer lanes then the maximum they can use but I've seen HBAs that say x8 and mean it and won't do anything if you only give them four lanes.

If I'm mass downloading music from Spotify (via zotify) for Navidrome on my homelab, what's the best and easiest way to not get my account banned?

Can I just do it through my own account?
Should I make a burner account on my family plan?
Or should I make a completely seperate account?

>>101322774
separate account and different ip address than you usually use
but also why are you downloading from spotify when better sources exist?

and also why stream it to yourself instead of syncing the music to your devices?

is pic rel good enough for an opnsense router? I know the ram and ssd are fine, but I'm concerned about the CPU since I want 10gbit traffic.

I will have a switch connected to it, so I think it would only handle traffic between the lan and the wan, but I'm not sure how that works.

>>101323584
>is pic rel good enough for an opnsense router?
yes
>I'm not sure how that works
Let's see
>LAN
I'm assuming you'll add a 10Gbit card for your LAN, so, given your card is PCI-e 2.0 you want to get card that has a x8 interface. 2.0 x4 is the bare minimum for 10Gbit.
>WAN/Routing
Assuming you don't have a managed switch you just have to plug your WAN to the onboard, switch to your PCI-e 10Gbit card, configure opnsense accordingly and you're set.

The hard/interesting way:
>Onboard's a shit, let's build router-on-a-stick
Get a managed switch with 10Gbit ports, only plug your PCI-e card, create VLAN for WAN, add VLAN to opnsense (should look like another interface), configure accordingly, profit.

I suggest you go the hard way, it's more fun, you get to learn VLAN's and you can do more shit with that knowledge.

Windmill faggot here.

Installed a new platinum PSU into my server. Replacing a 14 year old antec chinkshit truepower 750w (not even bronze certified). I measured a few things regarding power with various home server shit at wall plug. Not I don't care about your enterprise shit or your american "who cares free power" virtue signalling.

Test methodology:
I measured idle +5 minutes after Truenas login screen to work out all the background waking up processes Truenas does. I measured load as an intensive copy of 100gb of photos from one 6 HDD array to the other (lots of small files, using the HBA fully 6hdds -> hdds all through the HBA).

Test rig:
5600x AyyyMD (-20 undervolt)
b550 MSI pro board (bios set to eco green mode 45w) headless no GPU (integrated or otherwise)
32gb (16gbx2)Kingston ECC unbuffered server ram stock settings
12 x 4TB WD Red in 2 (6) drive ZFS2 arrays SATA not SAS
1x64gb SATA SSD for Truenas Dragonfish Scale OS boot drive
1x512gb m2 samsung sm951 (OG-shit) software, L2arc cache drive
3x120mm scythe gentle typhoon fans
1xLSI 9400-16i HBA in main PCI slot

Original PSU Server Power Check:
idle 105W - 110W (load 130-140W)

NO HDD's (all 12 physically disconnected-Original PSU- HBA still plugged in board):
idle 60W - 62W (load n/a)

NO HDD's NO HBA (all 12 physically disconnected-Original PSU- HBA physically removed):
idle 45-48W (load n/a)

NEW PSU (titanium) (all drives - HBA everything plugged in)
idle 88-90w (load 95-100w)

Key Findings:
HBA uses almost 13-15w just being plugged in with no drives connected
WD Reds use surprisingly little power 3.5W (idle) - 6.5W (load)
Switching PSU from e-waste tier to top titanium tier saved 20w on idle and 40w on load. Totally not worth justifying a switch, but if building from scratch does make sense for a 24/7/365 home server. In euro-cucked Germany (0.41 kwh), you can pay back the cost of a new titanium PSU in just one year.

Thanks for reading my blog. I love my data!

But nice test thanks for sharing

/g/entoomen, I have a chance to get a free HP microserver from work. I've got 2 to choose from, either a gen8 (intel based) or gen10 (amd based). Basically going to be running it as a NAS and basic server, don't need anything super powerful so this works well for me.
Between the 2 I'm leaning towards the gen8, it's an upgradable 1155 socket xeon so have plenty of options to choose from, plus have a spare 1265lv2 kicking around I should be able to use as an upgrade. AMD is lower power stock, but power/performance figures seem to be roughly on par with the older intel chips so don't see much of a reason to go with the newer one aside from DDR4 which would be nice I guess. Am i being a retard and should go for the gen10 for some reason, or is the gen8 a better machine overall?
Don't know which CPU is in the gen10 btw, as far as I can tell these are non upgradable so I'll be stuck with whatevers in there, unlike the gen8

How botnetted is zerotier?
It looks better than tailscale at first glance, any experiences?

>>101326030
>platinum rated 300w psus.
They already do that in flex atx and other meme formats for the tiny box sissies

>>101326178
Thanks. This was mainly leftover parts so I had an atx psu to start. Not sure if a pico psu could run that many hdd drives, but I haven't spent a lot of time investigating it. THere is probably a simple adapter, but I wasnt' sure if the BIOS alter spin up time settting would work and fry the pico.

I got the Seasonic TX-700 fanless titanium psu for $100 during a 4th july sale so thats why I got it. I reviewed this seeing how the power efficiency held at the bottom end of use cases. https://www.techpowerup.com/review/seasonic-prime-fanless-700-w/5.html

Again for most americans saving $30 a year is not worth it (and I agree) but if starting from scratch, I cannot fathom trying to get a shit e-waste 80+ bronze psu to save like $30 either considering how cheap titanium psu's are.

>>101326030
OK. You are smarter than me. I didn't think a single card 100% idle would use 15w. Lord knows what the 9308-16i abomination uses.

>>101326390
I have one of those 16i cards (idk if its a 9308 or a different one though, I forget) and it's 20-something watts. The heatsink is significantly bigger but still not really adequate because it assumes it'll be in a howling gale, I stuck a slot fan next to it. It's okay for me because it's in a large case and that's the machine that makes my backups, it let me hook up a huge pile of random drives and I just turn it on to sync to it and occasionally scrub it, so it's not constantly running.

Am I right to understand trunk mode as creating a bridge between, say, one port (WAN) with VLANs (with their respective ports) that require internet access?

Also, should I disable VLAN 1 after setting things up?

>>101326626
>one port with VLANs that require internet access
That's a bit too specific, a better way to understand a trunk port (at least for me) is that a trunk port is a port that serves as a bridge to multiple LAN's, so if I have a server that needs access to multiple VLAN's then it should be connected to a trunk port and that trunk should belong to both VLAN's.

>should I disable VLAN 1 after setting things up?
No, it's never advised to disable VLAN1, it's the default one. What are you trying to accomplish?

>>101326662
Thanks. Just want to set things up correctly. Right now I've followed a guide which sets 'ip address dhcp' for VLAN 1, which I think probably makes the management for the switch open for the whole network, which is probably bad practice? So instead of 'shutdown' I should probably do 'no ip address dhcp' or something after making a management VLAN, right?

>>101326803
I suggest you first layout your network topology either in your head or in a paper, you can start by asking yourself the following questions:
>Do I have/want a router that grants internet access for my LAN?
>If so, who do I want to manage DHCP? The router? Or the switch? (Recommended: router)
Keep in mind that only one DHCP service should be available in a network
That said, we still don't know what you're trying to accomplish, router on a stick?

Rackserver fans are meant to be high static pressure. PWM will handle the noise.
Not only that, but Dell PowerEdge servers have proprietary 9,000+ RPM fans, so there's nothing to really swap to. And it's quiet.

Rookie mistake.

>>101326888
I'll have a mini PC with opnsense between the ISP modem and my switch, but for now my switch is directly connected to the modem.

I want the switch to handle VLANs, some should be without internet access. All devices currently connected have internet access right now, including my WAP (which supports VLANs, if they exist). For a management interface, I was thinking a PiKVM, which would be the only entry point to my local network through a wireguard tunnel.

Posted a network topology map I had in mind some time back, but it's toddler level now.

>>101327183
Got it, is your switch a managed one?

>>101326626
>>101326662
Cisco best practice is to avoid VLAN 1 and shutdown it. Barring any DHCP + TFTP to do initial bootstrap configuration for switches.

is it still worth doing sysadmin as a career? I have no idea what this field is like in a professional setting. Is AI going to make sysadmin jobs obsolete within the next 10 years? is everything in the cloud now?

someone from the industry can you please weigh in.

>>101327202
Yessir. C3850.

>>101327216
So 'shutdown' VLAN 1 after trunk to VLANs that require internet?

>>101327238
>is it still worth doing sysadmin as a career?
Yes
>Is AI going to make sysadmin jobs obsolete within the next 10 years?
No
>is everything in the cloud now?
Yes, no serious company hosts their own shit (besides the obvious ones)

>>101327250
Ok, what you want to do is:
- Create VLAN for your ISP modem, say VLAN2, configure 2 ports, one untagged for your modem and the other tagged (trunk) for your opnsense
- Modify VLAN1, remove the port connected to your modem
- Boot your opnsense, add VLAN with ID 2, this will be your WAN
- Opnsense should see VLAN2 as another network interface, this will be your WAN
So:
>VLAN1 -> LAN
>VLAN2 -> WAN

I'll probably dare messing with VLANs tomorrow. Only recently set up ssh, and I don't want to go back to serial console (too far away). I was thinking of delaying setting up the firewall until after I had the other stuff setup though. I've got 6 VLANs planned so far:
>WAN
Currently connected to modem, to be connected to firewall.
>LAN
Trusted devices like fileserver, laptop, etc.
>GUEST
Literally for visitors, maybe not necessary.
>DMZ
Webservers, i2p, playatation, guests?
>DARK
No internet access devices like IP cameras, IoT, etc.
>MAN
Management VLAN, probably just the PiKVM.

Any opinion on numbering convention? VLAN 10, 20, 30... vs 100, 200, 300...?

i wouldn't know, i never got any certs.
Same with books, i mostly self-taught myself whatever admin-related topics by fucking around with Linux and networking gear from online guides and documentation.
Though right now i'm reading "TCP/IP illustrated" to get a proper grasp of the networking stack, so far seems like a nice book with practical examples, would recommend.
Probably best would be to have a general grasp on Linux, networking, VMs, containers.
Then some monitoring (e.g. Prometheus, Grafana), infrastructure automation (e.g. Ansible), clustering (e.g. Kubernetes), filesystems (e.g. ZFS) etc.
>>101327692
hard to say, since i got in with a degree.
I'd hope at least that there's less of codility-like job reviews. I got a normal face-to-face job review outright, while when previously trying to land a programming job i was always barraged by those humiliating online programming reviews with no human in sight, it was really discouraging.
Maybe try to show off some repos with admin-related things? (examples: automation scripts, self-written ansible modules/Kubernetes webhooks/Prometheus exporters/Grafana dashboards/etc, contributions to open source projects related to administration)

>>101327569
>Any opinion on numbering convention?
I try group ports and VLAN's like VLAN4 -> Port4 just for the sake of keeping track of them. Also keep in mind you'll have to configure opnsense for each of these VLAN's. If I were you I'd opt for pfsense instead.

>>101328097
does ansible/kubernetes have any use in a home environment? everything else im already well familiar with

>>101328306
Ansible could be useful when you have multiple devices (multiple PCs, laptops etc.), i like to write an Ansible playbook whenever i'm done setting up some new service/changing some config/etc.
I only have a server, PC and a laptop so it's still more work than just doing everything manually on each of them, but it also serves as documentation and it's harder to forget if you changed something on one device but not on the other.
Kubernetes for home feels to me like overkill, but if you have some simple services that don't require much compute or storage you could grab a couple SFF machines (even something as small and cheap as Wyse 3040) and set them up in a cluster, sounds like a fun exercise, with some purpose too as you could run highly-available services on it.
If not, then you could always spin a couple of VMs just to learn Kubernetes.
>everything else im already well familiar with
good job anon, then you already know more than when i started my job

>>101324499
why pfsense instead of opnsense? based on its version history, opnsense seems like it gets updated much more frequently
>>101324448
I'm probably going to get a mikrotik router since they're cheap and have the connectivity I need.

Not sure what a router on a stick is. Would I even need 10gbit on the router if the switch is managed?

>>101328513
>why pfsense instead of opnsense?
It's better supported, more stable and has better documentation. More updates doesn't mean better.

Mikrotiks are good.
>Not sure what a router on a stick is.
Is making your own router with a device that has a single ethernet port (regular routers require 2, one for LAN, another for WAN).
>Would I even need 10gbit on the router if the switch is managed?
No, you only need 10Gbit on your switch

>>101328849
I wrote a small script that allows me to easily categorize emails, but you can just use mailx. I'm not very familiar with home assistant and I don't understand what NFC tags have anything to do with this, but I think you might be overcomplicating this.

>>101328797
Nextcloud calendar events for things like trash day, tasks.org with nextcloud for everyday reminders.

>>101315685
I use mini thinkstations/optiplexes for this sort of thing, they can usually have 2-3 disks inside of their small cases. They're also quiet and use hardly any power. Samba SMB has been more reliable for me than SMB shares on actual windows server instances I've run in the past.

even ansible is overkill. i can't think of any scenario in which you'd need to automate replicating your server on to another machine in a home environment.

>>101328914

I'm not sure if this belongs here, but is there such a thing as a USB adapter that can support multiple SATA ports? Was thinking of buying one of these docking stations but it's so expensive and it seems like I can't scale it up when I need to. This thing is able to do 4 HDD into one USBC so the technology exists, but I just don't know where to get it.

You just install a network switch between your modem/ONT and routers.
When one router unalives itself, it gives the other a chance to DHCP to your ISP

>>101329742
That's not going to help if your entire ISP is down, which happens maybe every 3 months where I live.

I think the only option is to either pay for another provider, or go the 4G/5G mobile route with a sim card(pay as you go).

Because some of them don't have any form of authentication, so it makes sense to put them all behind 2fa. It's not like it effects the service in any way and it's simple to do. You should always practice good opsec regardless of your threat model. It breeds good habits.

>Ignore app level backups
Or
>Setup app backups to go to dedicated folders in NAS? (Sounds like a pain in the ass, not sure how to orgabize this really)
> Use proxmox backup server?
> Backup NAS and PBS contents to...something else? Then bundle that and back that up to backblaze?

Is anyone running any AM5-based systems? I can't for the life of me find figures for idle power consumption of the 8X00G series APUs that I was planning to build a cheap virtualization lab around. (Is this a bad idea? Why?)

I read contradicting OPINIONS on how AM5 idle efficiency, with some people saying idle consumption is worse because of chiplet based designs but also better for the APUs because they're not chiplet based... I'm in a bit over my prodigious 105 IQ

You didn't filter VMware posts, VMware posts filtered you. And you're incorrect.

if it can receive incoming connections, it's a server.

sure, you could host a mail server on that machine, it's not that hard. and if it's only for server messages, it doesn't need a fancy domain name or concerns about setting it up to avoid being labelled spam by other mail servers

has anyone tried AM5 board with IPMI?

>>101333237
Interesting. The people over at Truenas said 6 disks in a ZFS2 raid is typically optimal. Also better to have two seperate vdevs then one big one for performance reasons. I got these drives new for like $40 each 8 years ago, so 18TB fuckoff sized drives were not available then. Are you the legendary enterprise schizo? I'm honored

>>101335174
What problems do still in occur in current year? Feels like i noticed my last KVM issue in like ~2018

It's not related to processors, but virtio-win drivers and Proxmox VE's toddler-tier pitfalls with administration/management cause issues which neither VMware nor Hyper-V have. Look at Red Hat Enterprise Linux release notes, known issues, virtualization, grep for virtio. Try to mount a virtual disk (Windows) in a WinRE environment, you can't with vanilla ISOs because virtio-scsi drivers are not included. Attempt to import disk images from Proxmox VE's web UI, you cannot, superuser CLI only.
Hyper-V I don't have much to say about.

What's your favorite / recommended method to access your LAN for remote operation ?
Currently using ZeroTier, I don't know if I should move to Tailscale or bother installing a OpenVPN or WireGuard server.

>>101336680
IPsec is universally supported out of the box on various operating systems. Windows, Android, ...

>>101336559
Not gonna lie. Time frame checks out to where i last loaded a windows machine onto proxmox. I think it needed some extra settings from default, but even that instance in it's core settings still runs fine.

>>101336680
Just Wireguard

Way more annoying to set up than it should be to setup in pfSense but it works well enough on my phone.

There is only 1 good sat internet. Starlink.

Nothing else comes close.

>unlimited bandwidth vs other sats with 20-50-100-200GB limits that costs an arm/leg to go up

>>101336968
Density, more scalable. Server hardware with server grade manageability and features is rackmountable anyway, which many tower form factor servers do not have (or they take an obscure 4U-5U of rack space).

>>101337027
Hardware features have nothing to do with the form factor.
You can have your dual CPU e-waste in a gaymer full tower case with IPMI and even redundant PSUs if you're that paranoid.

>>101337027
Have you considered that someone who is not going to populate a rack could use less space with just one or two tower cases? Personally I don't see myself needing more than two servers that are any appreciable size.

>>101337027
I'm building an epyc system in a fractal d7 and between the drives, psu, cpu cooler, gpu's, network, and other pcie boolcrap I don't see there being very much wasted space. Personally don't much like how most rack mounted cases look either.

My LC display hooked to a microcotnroller can receive UDP and literally serves nothing back. If displaying shit now makes anything a server, your fucking radio controlled analog wall clock is """a server""" as it receives DCF77.

A server can serve back. Your server goes with the order to the kitchen and masturbates in the soup.

an analog watch with DCF77 is a server by your definition

>A server is a computer that provides information to other computers called "clients" on computer network.
as per definition, no outgoing connects to electronic clients == NOT a_server

so receives a request from a client and handles it, gotcha. sounds like a server to me. the original comment I made about incoming connections is missing an obvious part which I didn't think I had to add considering the thread we're in, I'll let you figure that one out

Couldn't honestly tell a difference, even on my old phone with a really worn battery

If there is one issue I have it's loosing network connectivity sometimes when exiting a WiFi network and getting onto mobile and vise-versa. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. Just switching the profile on and off fixes it
