Figured we’d start this community off with a question about what you’re running in your homelab!

This could be anything from hardware to software to things your running in the cloud (#cloudlab).

Hardware and diagram pics are always welcome!

    • Little servers - 3 x Pentium D-1508s w/32GB RAM, 2 x 400GB SSDs
    • Big server - 1 x Dual Xeon E5-2650L v3 w 128GB RAM, 2 x 100GB SSDs, 2 x 400GB SSDs, 2 x 800GB SSDs, 8 x 4TB HDDs
    • Desktop - 1 x Ryzen 5800X3D w 32GB RAM, 1 x 2TB NVMe SSD, RTX 4080
    • Cheap TP-Link 10Gbps switch
    • Proxmox running across the servers, the 400GB SSDs are running Ceph, everything else in ZFS
    • VyOS in a VM for routing etc…, 2Gbps symmetric internet
    • Mostly LXC at present, in the process of migrating that to Hashicorp Nomad (running inside VMs) backed by Ceph
    • On the big server, what do you use the assortment of SSDs for? I get specifically having a good chunk of solid state storage, but im wondering if you’re like me and just acquired them over time, or if there’s a specific purpose in mind.

      • Mostly over time - OS on the pair of 100s, the 800s were for containers/VMs - this use is moving over to CephFS though - the three smaller boxes are a recent addition.
