Yeah, good advice.

For my parents house with NAS in their living room I still use WD Red Plus (not Red Pro), so pleasant & quiet (which was basically my only concern). But smol. Can’t find new ones as quiet tho.

How is the noise?
Did you make any model selection based on that?

Oh, wow, this is beautiful!

Big dommy mommy! <3

The supernatural hero the world (running out of clan drinking water) needs, but not all its species deserve.

That’s really cute, I would love it!

I would def call Bloody Mary from a tiny mirror too.

I remember summers 2002~2004 … I had Nokias 7650 & 3650 … with a 2" 176×200 screen … on vacation I watched movies on it!

The PC software could transcode any video to that resolution, so that’s what I did, iirc I got 3 movies (space was tight back then, and memory cards expensive), but I also always has a lot of pics.

Anyway, she didn’t answer, never called back, stood me up on the seventh day … young romance, what can you do (but close your heart a bit more).

Yes, it’s still easier to manage, transfer stuff, Proxmox Backup server integrates nicely, etc.

Or the same issue with smart watches, which are basically just a ghost glory hole.

No, I didn’t mean with ceph. No quorum needed either. Just add to the group.

Is she balancing herself on her asshole?
So talented!!

ProxMox.

But also, in case if your only data backup plan for them is raid 1 - in such cases I prefer to have only one HDD in the machine & use the other one as a backup on a separate machine, preferably in another location. I find it that the missing 12h (or whatever) of the latest data overshadows the (lower) probability of losing all the data (fire, flood, burglary, weirdly specific accidents, etc).

And ofc you can select what to backup/rsync or not.

Eg Immich, after return to operation the apps will just resync any missing pics from the last backup.

Also with two systems you don’t have to care that much about drive quality. Im now buying Exos 22+TB bcs why not. But when I needed quiet drives I bought Red Plus (not the regular Red ones, nor the Pro ones), they are even quieter than Exos, but smol.

I think this is the way and not an overkill at all!

Its super easy to swarm ProxMox, and you make your inevitable admin job easier. Not to mention backups, first testing & setting up a VM on your server before copying it to their, etc.

Its amazing how fast it’s developing, hard to believe it’s only two years old, yet it seems like yesterday at the same time.

Fantastic devs!

I love Buster, make sure to tell him, such a distinguished and professional supervisor.

Yes, Proxmox, on basically any device, expand as heart desires from there (assuming some areas/services are more within your interest or liking - an ez way to speed up the knowledge assimilation).

This is a fair description.

My parents like it, once every so often I update their docker and apps (on the same day). Its not always straight forward (I just mean you have to visit their github), but ez enough.

Unfortunately my next choice (afaik) would be NextCloud … aaaand let’s leave it at that.
