>Erying 11th Gen Tigerlake ES CPU Motherboard (roughly an 11900H) >AMD 6600M Chinkshit Franken card >2x 16TB Seagate Drives (ST16000NM000J) in striped ZFS >8x 5TB Seagate Drives (ST5000LM000) in raidz2 (keeps a monthly backup of the striped array - drives always online so the SMR has time to unfuck itself - so far works fine - only had to restore from it once and it went well) >1x cold spare of each HDD model >2x 512GB Kingston NVMe drives (one of their lowend models) for / and /home >1x 512GB Teamgroup SATA solidstate drive for /home backup >Gentoo (~amd64) as OS (this was a mistake, but I didn't feel like doing a reinstall once I switched computers) >ZFS volumes are shared via ZFS built-in NFS (I am told this is a mistake, but it works) Most of it came from my old chinkshit/aliexpress PC build, and from old computers I got for cheap though various sellers. All of the storage was lightly used, but passes monthly scrubs and checks. Mainly serve Jellyfin from it, but I am also thinking of running multiple docker instances of octoprint so I can control all of my FDM printers from it. Also have an iSCSI set up for backing up my wife's homebrew TTRPG setting.
I'm just about to build a NAS with some leftover parts from an old upgrade, some new parts, and the disks out of my current NAS 7900X3D 64GB DDR5 (I'll probably run it at 4800MT/s) 4x 20TB HDD in ZFS Z1 (I have an off-site backup) 6.4TB NVMe (PCIe 4.0 x8) for L2ARC 1.92TB NVMe (PCIe 3.0 x4) for SLOG (maybe, not sure) With the recent changes to L2ARC persistence and block size in TrueNAS, I intend to basically warm my L2ARC for a couple months, and then just basically never hit my disks again. My seeding torrents will probably fit entirely within L2ARC, as will a lot of my media library. In theory I get the benefit of a 52TB array with one disk redundancy, with the speed of NVMe for reads. I know SMB doesn't do sync writes, so my SLOG won't help there, but I have some VMs and containers using NFS shares which I think does? Normally so sync writes.

Its just used for minecraft and plex right now Dell PowerEdge R740 2x Intel Xeon Gold G134 3.2GHz 256GB RAM 7TB HDD
>>1537 Is your HDD noisy? Like, do you shut it off when you are going to sleep?
>>1542 its in another room but the hard drives are actually not that loud. the only thing loud about it is the fans when its starting up
) hearing the 4 drives chugging away from seeding is actually quite comforting, I have it iny bedroom.
plus thats kind of their theme.
if more h3 sites are posted I might join too, since people here are less intimidating 
but I also buy new domains every year when I think of something new, so maybe I wait 
i don't really think you can do this, other than the numerous "free" cloud tiers that will ask you for your card then turn up a bill for your bandwidth.
there are things like tilde.club (can't remember others) but besides always being available on a community/as-is/if-i'm-jiving-with-it basis they are also, uh, all non-root.
honestly, if you waltz around lowendbox/lowendtalk for a suitable KVM, reading carefully, and spend A DOLLAR per month for actual service from a small-to-medium provider you could walk away with something pretty nice.
alternatively, 
but a nick name doesn't make non anonymous. i've been wondering about it lately
digital love!
