Strit

I use The Movie Database (https://tmdb.org) to find things to watch.

I think Beszel fits most of those. Not sure if it can restart containers/services.

Same here.

Yeah. I would need the 5 TB one for my stuff, so that is the €11/month box.

True. I’d have to get the €11/month box for it though. It’s cheaper to set up one of my Raspberry Pi’s with an external drive I already have. I just need to figue out how it’s best to transfer and dedublicate the data. :)

I think what I need to do correctly on my homelab this year, is setup off-site backups. I currently only backup to seperate drives and machines inside my own home. I need to setup something at my parents place to take weekly and monthly backups.

Other than that, my media server needs a bigger storage drive.

I’m not really able to answer that question. My unit is in my attic, so I can’t hear it anyhow. I haven’t noticed it overheating during the summer though.

Honestly, they are all good options. I have the Aoostar prebuilt option for my home server/NAS and I have had zero issues with it. 2 Sata SSD’s and it’s sipping around 12-15W power onload. about 10-11W on idle.

I had the Odroid H3 before that, with same SSD’s, it was using about 11-15W under load and about 8W idle.

You can easily add photos to an album from the web interface. But still not from the Nextcloud android client.

I’ve been using it for a couple of years though. I have not really had any problems with auto-upload from my android phone. So not sure if that “not even alpha stage” comment is correct. I don’t know the state of it on iOS though.

I hate how docker made it so that a lot of projects only have docker as the official way to install the software.

Just so we are clear on this. This is not dockers fault. The projects chose Docker as a distribution method, most likely because it’s as widespread and known as it is. It’s simply just to reach more users without spreading too thin.

I got the N100 version of that one for my homelab. Works really well. But if the idea is to expand to a business at some point, it’s not gonna be powerful enough.

I think my most obscure one is “Homarr”, which as the name suggests is a dashboard designed with the *arr suite in mind, but I use it as a regular dashboard for my regular services.

It’s still a 24% power save. In small numbers it doesn’t look like much, but over the course of a year, it adds up.

Nice. Any plans on mobile clients?

This would be great for my spouse, but she don’t really use desktop/browser apps. A mobile app could also integrate with the existing reminders/notifikations of the OS it’s on.

1: I have been using subfolder of /mnt for different things when self-hosting. Different external drives go in different subfolders of /mnt. Example: Media drives are mounted at /mnt/media, data drives at /mnt/data etc.

2: I’m lazy. Mine are located in my server users home folder. I then use scripts to sync between them between desktop and server.

3: Just make sure than your server user, the docker user and root user can all read and maybe write to them.

You could bind mount the folder you want it to go to, into the /var/www/webdav/ folder.

mount --bind foo foo

        The  bind  mount  call  attaches only (part of) a single filesystem, not possible submounts. The entire
       file hierarchy including submounts is attached a second place using

I technically still have a hosted website, but it’s rarely updated anymore. It’s very low priority compared to my self-hosted stuff.

I have the WTR R7 (N100 model 2 bay) and I can’t really complain. It was fairly cheap and it does what it says it does. Power draw with 2 2.5" SSD’s is about 11W average, but the RYzen one will be more.

I have some on freezers, and one on an air fryer that does 2400W. That’s the biggest loads I have.
