Homelab Switches
  • I got it on eBay, it had its firmware wiped so I had to follow a guide from servethehome.com to reload it full. It was for $250 and allowed offers, I did $150 and somehow got accepted! The noise when it reboots… everyone in the house can hear it… but then once it boots it’s not too bad and there are flags the community has to lower it even more. I probably wouldn’t want it on a desk next to me all the time, but it’s not too bad.

    The good thing about end of support switches… no outages for software updates… because there aren’t any…

    Homelab Switches

    I recently upgraded my homelab core switch to a Mellanox SX 6012. It’s 12 ports of 40gb/s, and each can break out to 10gb/s. This switch also idles at 30 watts which was top of my list.

    What model switches are you running, and do you like it?

  • Would you recommend a 3018 pro for a beginner? I just want to do some smaller things but have a few small soft metal things. I just don’t want to spend $2,000 for a 50x50 machine when I want to try a few small things.
