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.

I'm not going to ever get rid of my drives. With this amount of storage I think I can weather whatever storm is coming in the markets. I have more and continued homelab projects planned for my home.

Does anyone have any good recommendations for wall mounted firewalls and switches? I like the idea of mounting things on my wall.

literally any of them

Why do server people recommend not having too many files in a folder?
For example instead of having this path: /1/187651231.jpg
They say you should have: /1/87/65/187651231.jpg

I can't remember a reason, it can't be seeking if the disk is SSD right?

Why do you guys keep getting such switches when 10gbps ones with 8 ports are only like $90

>setting up a new proxmox server
I need to stress test the hardware and maybe dial in an under clock first. Should I install a different distro first, or just do it in a vm?
