Did I just get unlucky or am I doing something wrong?
drive temps are normally ~33C but occasionally get as high as 44
PSU might be overtaxed as well but I figured if that were the case it would fail to boot

>>108354858

Why does physical hard drive repair cost x5 more than what the drive is actually worth?

>>108355178
Because you can't make a factory line for repairing hdd's. If the drive needs to be taken apart it needs to be done in a cleanroom by a trained professional. Most of the time when you're getting a drive "repaired" like this you're actually just after the data on it, you wont actually put the drive back into production.

Not sure if this is the right thread, but I'll ask anyways.
I'm trying to copy my parent's entire disc movie and music collection. My goal is to prove a point that you don't need netflix to watch a movie that you own. Because they won't dust off the blueray player, I'm trying to make this as convinant as netflix. I also just want to teach myself to rip and store physical media.

The handbrake has converted these disc into a fuzzy and glitchy copy. I don't know why.
If it matters,
My operating system is ubuntu
My hardware is a framework laptop with 64gb of ram.
My nas is a synology nas with an 8tb hdd, but getting pirated movies on this hasn't been an issue.

>>108356246
Handbrake is about as simple as it gets. Fuzzy might be settings, glitches makes me think its getting a bad read on the disc.

I don't know if I've been awake too long or losing my mind, but this seems odd? I've gone from random HP fan to Arctic P8 on the heatsink itself, I can't imagine just that causes the BIOS to think "this is great, let's run at half speed". It'll ramp up correctly if I put a load on the system, but idk why the baseline is lower?

most dogshit oem systems have a pattern they stick to. fujitsu likes 75mm x 75mm for example. you can just use an intel lga 115x cooler on those for example. the standoffs being part of the case is not an issue.

>>108356583
Thanks. I can't remember the exact model but any cooler compatible with LGA1150 should fit. I have an old Deepcool Gammax200T and it would just not mount correctly, despite mounting fine in my old computer a decade ago. I'm not sure if I've damaged the clips previously but the amount of force to get the bracket on the board was insane. I'm having some trouble finding decent 1150 coolers for a reasonable price, even on eBay.

Anon that entire project is vibe coded. I noticed that long ago when the main dev forgot to turn off Claude’s coauthor feature and then I looked into the codebase and it was quite obvious. Now he apparently has a closed source iOS app too. The project was ass, took 800mb RAM because it was built on Java and Spring.
I don’t understand why people host vibecoded software in the first place - you can build one specific to your needs by yourself.

Going to turn an $80 turd into a server. What Linux distro do you recommend and what should I focus on as a first project?

I had another go at setting up my router. I was able to get an ip, route, and dns from the dhcp client, but I wasn't able to ping anything from within the router, not even the dhcp server. When I decided to call it for the night and try again some other time I noticed that I still had internet on my isp router. I had it in a partial bridge mode where only the 10gig port was bridged so that I could easily reverse it if I wasn't able to make it work, but I wasn't expecting it to still have internet. Was this blocking my new router from properly connecting?

should i care about having hardware NAT?
router is a Belkin RT1800, AI pointed it out and idk if it matters that much. I'm just going to be doing "home server" shit, nothing incredibly taxing, I already have a TP Link archer c7 which I want to replace because it's old af.

*and never noticed I got hacked over span of 20 years.

My landlord has cox internet with the default cox modem/router. There's a cat5 run from his router to my place that I hookup my own asus router to for wifi coverage and some dns/domain stuff I run for myself. So a dual nat setup.
For the most part everything works, even my vpn with ports forwarded from cox router -> asus router -> vpn container. I need to start making services available from a domain I bought for other people to access without a vpn. My understanding is this is pretty much impossible with dual nat.
So option 1:
Run a reverse proxy on a vps somewhere to tunnel outside connections with my VPN into my local network.
Option 2:
Turn cox router/modem into just a modem, move my router to the landlord's place and setup just a WAP or bridged router at my place for wifi coverage. Idk if I can turn the cox router into just a modem or if I also need to buy a modem.
Option 3:
Continue to suffer with dual nat.
Option 1 seems less invasive but potentially causes problems in the future. Option 2 seems overall better but I'm concerned about having my landlord's smart tvs and alexa bullshit able to see all my stuff. I think I need separate vlans for his stuff and my stuff. The router WAP will be on his vlan, the WAP at my place will be on my vlan. I don't even know if that's doable with an asus router.
Which route would /hsg/ go?

I could but that would mean managing my network from the cox router. The cox router interface sucks and has next to no options. No dns settings, no static IP assignment or dhcp reservation, no vlans or dmz, the admin page needs an internet connection to access (or the app), and there's no way to set routing rules. My landlord changes his cox account password a lot because he keeps forgetting it and it makes logging in to adjust anything a massive pain in the ass.

Run Cloudflare tunnel or something similar.
Or run a cheap VPS with sufficient bandwidth and monthly traffic. Mind you, a lot of complexity can be avoided by just doing a simple reverse SSH tunnel. You maintain a SSH session to the server with a public IP and you port fowrard from there to your local machine, so for example loop this to infinity with a systemd timer or cron: ssh -o ExitOnForwardFailure=yes -N -R 0.0.0.0:443:localhost:443 root@stellacoxcockbox

How do I setup rclone on the server if I want it to be on docker container and only access an external drive that will also be accessed by jellyfin? Do I have to create a single volume for the both of them? Do I have to learn docker compose?

>>108367332
I asume you want jellyfin and rclone both containerized in the same machine and the drive is an smb or nfs share from another machine mounted on the docker system?

>>108367388
Jellyfin and rclone both on separate containers on the same machine, yeah. The drive for now it's just an old HDD I'm still in the process of formatting, so it can be anything, but it's gonna get plugged into that same machine and I want to access it from other machines for file storage and I'll put my music and anime in there too, for jellyfin to access and serve. I want to use rclone to mount that drive that is on the server on other machines and access those files.

>>108354801
I don't have a home server, but every time I scroll by and see a cute elf I want to get one.

>>108367407
Why do you want to use rclone instead of smb or even nfs? My understanding is rclone is more for syncing and copying for remote backups, not for creating mountable shares.

>>108367850
I want to mount the drive as a partition on the client, if smb or nfs can do that then I'm interested. I don't know which is the best approach here.

>>108367871
If you're going to be mounting it on windows then you'll want to use Samba/smb. I've heard people say that nfs is faster, but it's more complicated and can't be mounted on windows. Samba is very simple to configure, though if you want to put it in docker I'm not sure what that will change. I'm not really a docker guy.

>>108367950
What are the options when it comes to that stuff? Samba, nfs and what more? I'm do some reading up on them.

>>108367964
Smb and nfs are really the main two. Other options are going to be bespoke protocals for services like s3 or different cloud storage services like google drive, dropbox, etc. There's also sftp, which I think is what rclone would use, but it's more for transfers than having a permanently mounted disk. I'm not familiar with it, though I have heard some guys here recommend it over smb or nfs.

>>108364612
pretty much everything you mentioned can be run on a separate node. if your landlord is actually fine with letting you put your own router into his modem then that would solve a lot of your problems. look into how you'd access modem mode with that ISP.

Which is better for a homeserver built to host game servers for friends? I see a lot of old i7's (3770/4790) and i5 6500's on eBay. I'm aware 6500 is newer but it's still 4 cores 4 threads. From what I understand most game server applications need strong single core performance, which leans me towards the older i7s?

i recently changed my router and changed the subnet so it won't conflict with a different subnet connected to wireguard later.
now my server randomly refuses to be accessible for like half a minute every few minutes. i don't know what is happening. i changed all the static IPs i set. updated the hostfile, etc.
it really just randomly drops packets, even on ping, every now and then and the WebUIs won't be accessible for half a minute.
i tried shutting off some containers to see if there is a problem with any of them, but no.
wtf is happening?

>>108370007
depends on how many instances you want to run and how many players.
Clockspeed is more important than core count but lets say you want several servers or have +10 players at the same time you might want to consider more cores.

im planning to run a minecraft and maybe some Source server for me some friends.
i managed to get a cheap dell micro with an i7 7700t which sould be sufficient for my usecase

>>108370084
To be honest just 1 server at a time. I can't imagine more than 4 players at a time, would be for the usual Palworld/Valheim/Enshrouded type games. The server requirements for these games typically list requirements for a lot more players which can be hard to divide properly. I'm planning on an old office optiplex/HP rather than custom building.

>>108370222
then you might want to look for the newer models with 6th or newer gen cpu's and 16gb ram if the budget allows it. valheim is pretty hungry for recources.

im planning to run AMP. licence is like 10 dollars but saves a lot of headache messing with docker.

>>108370410
I've hosted a few servers and Valheim by far is the least resource intensive, even with increased values in BepinEx

>>108370129
sadly it's not wireguard. it's not running. i just changed the subnet so i would have no problems when i install wireguard later.

>>108370449
in my experience the server needed atleast 4gb ram and 2 cores to function properly for 4 players.
but this might also be due i ususally enable write caching to minimise load on the drive.

I finally got some time to try to diagnose why uploads to my NAS were being so slow. For a long time I assumed it was because samba was shitting the bed for some unknown reason (Windows SMB client, Linux SMB server). I installed and setup NFS and found that performance was roughly the same (NFS was maybe slightly faster), which was surprising because I assumed the issue was samba specifically. I also noticed my upload speed to the NAS was much slower than download from it (12MB/s up vs 50MB/s down). This was really confusing because I've never seen asymmetry like that, and running fio on the disk returned what I expected (110MB/s max write speed). Using iperf3 I eventually I tracked it down to the MoCA connection between my NAS and my router. I used AI to help troubleshoot from there since all I could find online about asymmetric MoCA speeds were people saying various devices had the same problem (ASUS, goCoax, Hitron, etc. didn't seem like any particular manufacturer was the problem). Eventually I narrowed it down to the connection between the MoCA adapters, specifically higher frequency bands had issues since setting the channel plan to Sub-Band D-low mostly fixed the issue (though limited speeds to ~550 MB/s) and I determined from there that there must be a non-MoCA compatible coax splitter in my house's wiring that I wasn't aware of. Setting a QoS policy on my PC to rate limit uploads to just under the threshold where packet loss starts to occur seems to have mostly fixed the issues I've had for a long time where NAS uploads would cap out at ~15 MB/s, I can hit like 60 MB/s now.

I know the mid tower is a better pc overall, both the cpu's overall performance and efficiency, as well as the ability to house the harddrives itself

however, if I'm okay using an external disc bay and I'm only using Plex, does it make more sense to buy the mini pc? it'd use a lot less power, be more compact, and the dual codec engines would probably be more reliable than using a 1660ti

Wireguard or tailscale, which is more retard-proof? I wanna start accessing my services from my phone but I'm afraif I'll fuck up and let ebin hackers into my home network.

I use moonlight/sunshine to stream games from my laptop to my desktop. it uses around 200 Mbps. I also have many other things on my network that uses tons of local network bandwidth such as NVR cameras and so on.

At what point should I start looking into setting up LACP/LAGG so I don't run into issues?

>>108382400
Use wireguard. It's pretty retard proof to follow a guide for it. Who knows when tailscale will decide to an hero or, that it needs to change how it works to make sure you're properly praising Israel.

Do you need the physical space that makes the smaller form factor worth it?
How much uptime do you need to have for the better efficiency to be worth the $250 investment?
Think it through for yourself.

I used a CWWK N150 minipc - its pretty gud, probably overkill for me because I have a small home network. Ill be playing around with it this week so Ill report back on penis inspection day

>>108383540
Tailscale enables you to require manual approval for new users or devices. The rebbitor is a ragebaiter and a squatter.

>>108382400
tailscale is more retard proof and easier to use. It uses wireguard under the hood btw

if you don't want to connect to the official tailscale servers you can host your own with headscale

i thought you said more ram for zfs is a myth, now you need more ram for zfs?

You need 16-32 GB at most if you're a tranny porn hoarder like most of /g/ but this general is ramless and 1/3 of their OptiPlex's memory is taken up by the pfSense VM.

I've completely lost any interest in running any of this shit myself, but a friend of mine runs plex with all the arr shit so I guess I'm spoiled
does anyone run a seedbox and have tips for either providers or setup? I'm assuming policy based routing for torrent shit over a tunnel is the way it's done

im doing some crack shit self data recovery and ordered two donor harddrives to replace either the heads or the pcb on my target recovery drive
the data is worth losing as its just some torrents i can recover, hence my diy attempts and hopefully gon learn some things type goals

has anyone done similar home recovery and needed to swap the platter heads? ive got multiple resources on the how, but i need to know if the head comb is something i can crackshit DIY with a little bit of brainpower or something i can try to find a 3d cad for
all the headcombs i can find are full sets that cost at least 30-100 dollars and dont include the type i need (3.5 inch 5 platter), so i figure maybe i can get a 3d print of it or just home brew it

thoughts?

>the data is worth losing
then why are you doing all of this? seems it isn't worth losing

oh fuck
my master plan is over

Same reason to hoard anything digital. What if it gets deleted and I want it?

why would you even fuck around with stuff like that to begin with? no hope of getting a cat5 and a switch in?

>>108387621
can't believe there's actually people out there who have friends running "all the arr shit" and posting about it on /g/

>>108390737
it's still better than powerline

>>108382215
i do, just not for you.

What's the best DNS for blocking ads? Is pihole hole good? I see talk about adguard but some of their features seem quite useless to my usecase, like parental control. Also can those be run along with other services on a pi without issues? pihole says it needs 500MB of ram, that's half of what the pi has and I'm cramming everything into one machine. And I might want jellyfin too in the future...
I guess I understand now why people have multiple pis...

Most people stop at one. Unless you're using them for microcontroller capabilities, there's almost always a better solution.

Is FreedomBox good?

I just want a home NAS primary to store backups from my dedicated server. I might also set up OpenVPN or some other simple service, but I just want something small, relatively quiet, not-very-power-hungry, that I can put under desk/on wardrobe and not do much with it except for automated backups.

>>108393370
and most importantly, I do not want to spent a lot of money on a glorified backup machine. Maybe 600$ top.

If I just want a simple life. Set it and forget it everything, why shouldn't I just use Windows? Debian would be cool but learning it just to have a less resource intensive Windows seems pointless.

linuxes are set and forget, upgrades are painless if you're using a lts stable distro

I am also considering this since I can buy it locally and get tax break and probably some ram and some used disks within my budget.

Any advice on why this is a bad or good idea would be very welcomed.

>>108393468
there are far more reasons to use linux than resources. but yeah just keep doing your thing if you want to stay on windows, not really interested in listing it all out for the gorillionth time for someone who can't just ask an AI.

Until January, I was originally using Cloudflare as a proxy to my website hosted at home. The dashboard reported I got 2k visits a week after filtering out all the bots, with a JS challenge + a but of user agent filters and stuff.

I thought, hey I should try being my own network filter like CF, so I set up a VPS that my home server connects to via wireguard. On the VPS, I filtered traffic with many of the same web security rules I used on CF plus I ensured the clients had a JS runtime and made them perform some tricks before proxying them home. I noticed, oh wtf, I am only getting 500 visitors a week, and can see some bots scraping search results from my site.

Finally, I tried Anubis. Upon detecting bots, rather than fail2ban them, I sent out impossible level 16 challenges. In 1 week, only 15 challenges were passed, meaning under 15 visitors, most probably bots still.

Conclusions:
#1 Using CF attracts more bots, and they don't block fuck all.
#2 Anubis works very well.
