READ THE (temp)WIKI! & help by contributing:
https://igwiki.lyci.de/wiki/Home_server

/hsg/ is about learning and expanding your horizons. Know all about NAS? Learn virtualization. Spun up some VMs? Learn about networking by standing up a OPNsense/PFsense box and configuring some VLANs. There's always more to learn and chances to grow. Think you’re god-tier already? Setup OpenStack and report back.

>What software should I run?
Install Gentoo. Or whatever flavor of *nix is best for the job or most comfy for you. Jellyfin/Emby/Plex to replace Netflix, Nextcloud to replace Googlel, Ampache/Navidrome to replace Spotify, the list goes on. Look at the awesome self-hosted list and ask.

>Why should I have a home server?
De-botnet your life. Learn something new. Serving applications to yourself, your family, and your frens feels good. Put your tech skills to good use for yourself and those close to you. Store their data with proper availability redundancy and backups and serve it back to them with a /comfy/ easy to use interface.

well i've never run computers 24/7 before, especially not old beat up ones with replacement aliexpress parts, new to NAS, hence the caution
so you both think there's practically zero risk either way. fine, thank you. still not sure which way to go desu.
atm the fan is disconnected, idle temps are motherboard ~50 degrees C, CPU ~47.
didnt have time today, maybe tomorrow i will reattach the fan and test temps.

What are some good options to consider if I want to build/run a custom router+firewall with pfsense/opnsense? I currently have my ISP's modem and router boxes but I want to put the ISP's router in bridge mode and set up something custom to user with my managed switch to finally get vlans set up. I'd like to have at least 8 1g rj45 ports, but having 1 or even 2 SFP+ ports would be fantastic. Thoughts on harware?

Hi guys, I'm thinking of building a NAS in my place. The problem is I don't have a storage closet or anything to hide it, so it would be going right next to my workstation and home theater.

Is the Jonsbo N5 going to be really loud? I would replace the fans with say Arctic PWMs. Anyone have experience with this? I'm trying to avoid going the Fractcal Define 7 XL route since its so gargantuan.

I currently use a 10 year old pc in an old NZXT case with 2x 24tb, but I would be loading up the Jonsbo with 6x 24tb most likely

This simple idea of having 2 USB-C ports CANNOT be done because it stops the zoomer from buying wireless ear buds(battery inside will always go to shit and unusable in ~3 years)

and you would be stuck using extremely affordable, high quality audio headphones or in ear buds(that are a bit too green for the planet in 2026)

also the 3.5mm headphone jack looks like a penis that goes inside a hole and basically why aren't you a wireless, constantly charging gay trans in 2026 right now.

in some ways they were. we did get to high definition crt (and that shit was amazing) but the tubes and electronics were so heavy it took two fit men to move the tv - and even then those two men would struggle.

I get you man, I lived through the 90s and today? Imagine that Crysis is almost 20 years now and it still looks GOOD even by today's standards. Sure, vidya might not be a good benchmark of all technology progress, but it still shows that we have stalled in some aspects. Hardware is vastly more powerful than in 2007 (although it has stalled in its own way - essentially being just buffed up hardware from mid 2000s) but software didn't follow. Instead of utilizing that power for improvements, developers used it to allow themselves to be more sloppy in their work, releasing shitty code is apparently allowed now because the hardware can make up for it.

for motion(games), absolutely.
for black levels, until oled it was superior.

for reading/creating text, never.
a flickerfree lcd is far more comfortable on the eyes. though many use bad pulse width modulation which is worse than crt, you go from rolling scan to staring at a stroboscope.

my favorite was the lg flatron 795+, one of the first with a completely flat screen and no annoying two trinitron lines.
