Yeeee! I just bought a bunch of shit for the #homlab I don't even know if I'm ganna need it. I was in deep and said, "Fuck a this" i just hit buy.. I'll return later. I have the patience of a toddler.

Next-gen #homlab testbench update:

I'm *extremely* proud or this kludgy mess of an RTX A2000 with an externally bolstered-on 40mm Noctua fan (even if the deshrouded GPU+60mm fan was actually performing much better). :blob_raccoon_heart:

The 60mm fan could actually keep the A2000 from throttling through an entire 10min real-life gaming benchmark run (#FFXIV Shadowbringers benchmark) and was on-par with the stock setup in result, while the 40mm fan actually thermal-throttled halfway through. That said, both configs were virtually silent and the fan nosie was completely inaudible even at full blast! :blobfoxcomfycomputer:

Getting all this to go full passive will be tough, despite the 40W TDP the A2000 chip runs mighty hot, but the RAM goes even hotter, the RAM chips can withstand 130°C and thermal throttle at 105°C :blobfoxeyes:

New #firewall hardware for the #homlab finally arrived (IPU450). I've also used this opportunity to migrate from #pfsense to #opnsense 🚀

The pain you feel when you spent 4days on your #homlab #networking just to tear it all down and start over ### Boooooshit!

I'm dramatic 😎

Ok #homlab / #selfhosting tribe! My #storage is a little rusty!! What y'all using for like distributed storage.. I know there is ceph and minio. Is that what we got?

I'm really looking for me to be able to uses my 3 node cluster to also replicate storage across it. So like a distributed NAS I guess. What the hell am I even asking.. I'm not sure 😂

this #homlab / #selfhosting stuff is never ending :). Since my #lxd cluster is backed by #OVN ( an SDN Network provided by OpenVSwitch). I can create networks on the fly for my networking ( think AWS).. Now i'm thinking to just use a reverse proxy as an ingress that is exposed to the outside world and make everything else non routable via BGP as it currently is. One way in one way out!

@m4nuel @cyberfarmer For sure. For a NAS or any storage cluster in one's homelab, I can definitely recommend #TrueNAS Scale as a viable alternative to Unraid. It is FOSS and is about as polished as it gets. I got into NixOS and like my #Homlab with #ConfigAsCode but if I were to start out again, I'd certainly go with TrueNAS
