To vouch for Core4/Rhino, over in ServerBuilds.net (Discord and Discourse) we've had lots of positive feedback from many forum members using Rhino for used storage, motherboards, HBAs, and complete s…

Great write-up; very ambitious to cover such a broad scope for the lay reader!
In the buying recommendations, I'd add a paragraph about used enterprise SAS HDDs. In the US at least, t…

I am in definitely in favour of holding off on further deals until things stabilise a bit. I'm confident you'll pull through this season with your head above water, and once you're ready with the ca…

if you're ok with the decreased availability and just need to manage multiple sshfs mounts as one, consider mergerfs.

Distributed FS like Tahoe or MooseFS, or distributed DB / key-value store like Cockroach or Cassandra. If you want them to be safe, they're generally not going to be fast.

I use old AeroHive APs; Omada, UniFi, and Aruba IAP are fine, too. OPNSense on an old Lenovo m73 (4th gen uSFF). Lots of options for old enterprise gigabit PoE switches: I use an Enterasys C3-serie…

Spinners still generally follow the bathtub curve, and heat / vibration is a bigger killer than just use. I have many drives with 30-50k hrs power-on time, but only 1-2 drive writes total. In other…

There are a gazillion uSFF (1L, tiny/mini/micro) corporate desktops on ebay; 7th gen is super cheap now, e.g., m710q. Anything of that gen or later, even the little 2c Celerons, has QSV and can tran…

Hey you're here, Ash! I did enjoy ZX while it lasted, and I knew you tried your best to recover.

I'm a mod at [ServerBuilds.net](https://discord.gg/VrNYVTx), revolving around budget whitebox NAS builds using old server boards. I'm also reasonably active on [ServeTheHome](https://forums.servethe…

In the US at least, shucking does not void warranty; folks have shipped the bare drive back to WD and gotten warranty replacements. My previous post included a link to a price-tracking site for shuc…

This is a very common use-case over at [ServerBuilds](https://serverbuilds.net/), and a number of whitebox NAS builds would be suitable. E.g., $40 LGA1155 board in a large case like RSV-L4500 (15 ba…

No worries, I'll take that as a compliment, as @cam 's been a conscientious provider; I've had a NAT box with him for a long time!

Sorry, still not quite following! The only Cam I can think of is Gullo's Hosting, who's definitely not me!

You want the wg connection to go through one specific WAN interface? One way is to add a static route for the remote wg peer via the desired WAN gateway.

I like the community around OPN more than that around PFS, but functionally they're very similar. PFS acquiesced on dropping support for non-AES-NI CPUs. ERX is cheap and functional as fw but not t…

I've been using single-device btrfs for many years without issue. Config management (ansible) makes it very easy to blow away and recreate root, so I no longer worry about drive failure for root. App…

Keepass on Nextcloud for me. I do want [pass](https://www.passwordstore.org/) to succeed, but it's not yet as featureful as KP or BW. It makes sense to think of encrypted storage as one thing, sync a…

You should be able to live migrate if it's lvm on mdadm (vgextend, pvmove, vgreduce). I'd think it should be possible with btrfs on mdadm, too, using btrfs raid1

Do you need it to be new with a support contract? If not, used Dell 5324 is dirt cheap and has everything you list except for 10G uplink. To add 10G uplink, Aruba S2500-24T. There are lots of thes…
