I'm hoping to find a build list for a general home server/NAS. The goal is to have a server capable of running 2-3 VMs along with a handful of containers, act as a Plex server, and act as a NAS for media storage.
The VMs will be game servers so probably on the beefy side. Plex will need to transcode but never likely more than 3-4 simultaneous streams at most.
Budget isn't too important within reason, my general preference is to go bigger than needed to future proof myself a little and give a cushion for changing needs. I'd like to keep the build \< $3000 if possible.
I have no preference on specific hardware or OS so long as the end product can perform well and meet my needs. I'm also not opposed to buying something premade if there something out there that might fit the bill.
Really appreciate any insight, thanks!
EDIT: Should add I'm also not super concerned about noise, this will be located in an out of the way closet so it shouldn't be an issue.
Same here, blocked that same domain a day or two ago and still see posts. Also noticed the same that blocking the individual magazines work, but that's obviously less than ideal.
Whether Reddit goes on successfully forever or goes down the drain next week I don't really care. Things like this have shown me the Fediverse is the future, that's where I'd rather make my "home" on the internet.
Regardless of how great a service like Reddit may have been, putting all of your eggs in a basket owned by a single company who's inevitable goal is to make money just isn't going to work out well. I'm not faulting a company for trying to make money, that's the world we live in and they're just playing the game. By continuing to contribute to services like that, though, we're only increasing their value, not ours.
The only chance we've got for an internet we actually want to spend time on is one that can't be controlled by a handful of corporations. Hopefully that's the Fediverse, but who knows.
