What’s the wattage like on that puppy?

[-] davemeech@lemmy.ca 2 points 11 months ago

I need to learn a lot more about hotspots for server racks and equipment and where to get decent deals.

I initially wanted to build a desktop to serve as a starter homelab but I fear that it will get outgrown very quickly and feel that maybe finding a cheap rack and building in it incrementally might be a better way of doing things.

Getouttatown! $950! I mean that’s a pretty amazing setup.

The D71 is an awesome idea, which I am instantly stealing. Thanks a lot!

[-] Pvt-Snafu@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

That's a very decent setup. What are you running on it?

[-] EranStockdale@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

That's dope! How much storage have you got there?

[-] No_Inspection_5686@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Right now only 80TBs but I'm gonna keep adding more soon

[-] thomasmitschke@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Fix your defective ram and hdd!

[-] microlate@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Did you measure how much this adds to monthly electricity cost? Do you mind sharing

[-] jaceg_lmi@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Whatcha doing with dem dere Pi's? I like that 1U doohickey you have there for em. Also, I see lots of folks using the CyberPower 2U UPS like yours? Are they good? Must be probably? I've seen quite a few user posts using that or similar CyberPower units. UniFi goodness. This foto cured my OCD for the day, thank you very much :)

"We love detailed homelab builds, please put as much detail about your lab as possible and what you are using it for. Posts with just a few pictures and no context behind them will be removed. Detail can be posted as a reply to your own post."

I'll do a full write up when I get off work, thanks for the info

The keystone panel will trigger everyones ocd

[-] homelabgobrrr@alien.top 0 points 11 months ago

What are the specs of the gen8’s?

[-] no-fapping-way@alien.top 0 points 11 months ago

Ah a NetApp (Network Appliance) DS14 mk2 disk shelf. Now that’s some tech I’ve not seen in a long time.

What do you have it plugged into?

[-] therealSoasa@alien.top 0 points 11 months ago

Can't wait for "bring your lab to work day" 😉

[-] odinsdi@alien.top 0 points 11 months ago

I'm digging those displays at the top and the "everything" passthru panel. Slick, buddy!

[-] Lanky_Information825@alien.top 0 points 11 months ago

Very cool looking - what are the two screen at the top used for?

[-] SirLagz@alien.top 0 points 11 months ago

Whats that dual screen setup up top?

[-] rocsci@alien.top 0 points 11 months ago

Care to share more details. Do you like the udm pro? I just ordered it. Any tips on getting the hardware from FB marketplace. I'm always skeptical about getting server hardware from there.

[-] edparadox@alien.top 0 points 11 months ago

What are the displays?

[-] FugginOld@alien.top 0 points 11 months ago

That is a pretty nice setup.

[-] firestar4430@alien.top 0 points 11 months ago

Looks dope. Why'd you connect the switch to your UDM using Ethernet instead of the SFP ports? Get that sweet 10gig connection.

[-] Yasutsuna96@alien.top 0 points 11 months ago

Any link for you got your patch panel with the USBs?

[-] Sammyc64@alien.top 0 points 11 months ago

Those actually look like they are rack-mounted Raspberry Pis

[-] No_Inspection_5686@alien.top 0 points 11 months ago

Good eye, they are

[-] No_Inspection_5686@alien.top 0 points 11 months ago

It's a patch keystone panel and just used RJ45, USB, and HDMi keystones

[-] Deceptivejunk@alien.top 0 points 11 months ago

What’s the full setup?
