PFC is in the power supply. The bios doesn’t control it. Only servers may have this control.

Try running some equipment that needs extra load from the UPS. TV? Gaming system? Again could just be an issue with the UPS.

Some systems just need a pure sine wave UPS. Especially high grade server hardware. But test the UPS with other computers, it could just be faulty.

Try Emby. Hardware acceleration works out of the box. It is paid though but I’m very happy with it for past few years.

I have similar setup but without PROXMOX. I tried it but never saw the benefit. Using ZFS for bitrot protection.

Syncthing isnt a backup. Its just a synchronisation tool. If you delete a file it gets deleted everywhere.

What’s the alternative?

CasaOS looks interesting. But i prefer OpenMediaVault for the moment.

Things are easy or free. Rarely both. :) it’s well worth learning OMV. If you have any questions I’ll try to help!

I run OMV baremetal for last few years. I really like it. I did try TrueNAS and found it too convoluted.

Nextcloud is a totally different beast that would run on top of either.

OMV allows you to use ZFS as well if you want (I do) but also the flexibility to use other raid systems.

I just wish they’d left in portainer as default. No point reinventing the docker wheel…
