I'll start. Did you know you can run a headless version of JD2 on a raspberry pi? It's not the greatest thing in the world, but sometimes its nice to throw a bunch of links in there and go to sleep.

Yeah im just about there. Eventually i want to build my own nas, but i got a pretty solid synology for cheap and it is good enough for plex and all the docker containers so far.

you are spot on about lowering the barrier of entry tho. I remember trying to set up programs to auto run on boot on a raspberry pi lol, now all i do is double click an icon and supply my ports. crazy easy

Nothing wrong with using what you've got and upgrading. And the beautiful thing about Docker is you can just spin up the container elsewhere, point the mount points to their new locations, make sure your perms are good, and continue like nothing changed.

It really is so much easier now. And with UnRAID acting as my container host, it saves everything I spin up (permanent or not) in its last state as a template, so if I need to destroy my docker image disk (which I recently ran into) all I need to do is find the template I was using from the dropdown they give you and click Create. Not a backup solution (which you should also have), but it's such a time saver if and when something goes horribly wrong, or if you want to spin a container you used to use but since destroyed back up.

when something goes horribly wrong,

I like how thats not IF, lol. I swear dude, i have so many sd card images ready for when i inevitably mess something up.

Do you use a server rack for your nas? or just an old pc case?

[–] eroc1990@lemmy.parastor.net 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

100% when. I've learned that the hard way too many times to count at this point...

My NAS is built into an (I think) Thermaltake mid-sized tower running consumer hardware (ASRock X570 Phantom Gaming 4, Ryzen 5 series G proc, G.Skill non-ecc RAM) with the exception of one hard drive. Both that and my proxmox host are repurposed or custom built towers.

I do still use the QNAP NAS too, though only as SMB for my desktop/NFS for my server.

Yeah, im debating on just diving in and getting a rack, or continue duck taping together rpi's and old computer parts.

Q: Does the LackRack provide redundant power supply?

A: Only if you add it yourself

10/10

The perfect rack setup, no?
