homelab

I’m a new homelabber, recently bought a SilverStone RM41H08 4U Chassis...

Hi, so I have a very individual homelab. It's a collection of stuff accumulated over nearly 30 years of doing weird stuff....

I've noticed recently that my network speed isn't what I would expect from a 10Gb network. For reference, I have a Proxmox server and a TrueNAS server, both connected to my primary switch with DAC. I've tested the speed by transferring files from the NAS with SMB and by using OpenSpeedTest running on a VM in Proxmox....

I would like to create a VLAN that can access the internet but cannot access the rest of my network, with one exception. It should still be able to connect to my HomeAssistant server which isn't on the VLAN....

My Internet provider just installed a 2,5/1Gbps Internet connection and I've asked the guys to run a couple of their fiber to connect my router (HP Prodesk with OPNsense) to my server....

For those of you who know of PiAlert or similar projects/forks like NetAlertX, do you know of any that can run without WAN access?...

Hi everybody!...

So, I finally got this project (PiAlert) working how I'd like....

I recently installed an instance of TPot Honeypot, and it looks and feels pretty fantastic....

Hi everyone :)...

A slightly less technical post - these are some things I've learned from having a HomeLab for over a decade.

Just want to share some love about Seagate....

Hi all,...

I have installed Debian with software RAID1 (and installed Proxmox on it) on 2 256GB SSD and I now want to move to 2 500GB SSD, how do I proceed?...

I run a Windows 11 VM on xcp-ng to do testing and Windows specific graphic and video work. I use an old R9 390 in passthrough mode right now but it's running out of steam....

I recently discovered Pi Alert (and the various forks of it) and it seems like something that might be useful on my homelab....

So I'm trying to build a router. Just need something to handle the networking in my house and the plan is to separate things out via virtual local area networks. Anyway, reading a bunch of threads and comments, I think my design will be something akin to this. Is this good or bad? Ultimately I wanna run OPNSense since that's...

After looking into travel routers a bit, I quickly came across Gl.iNet which seems to be a leader in the space. It seems they use OpenWRT which is great, but with some special sauce on top of it....

My home server is a Proxmox machine with some VM one of which is Open Media Vault from which a Windows PC plays videos to my TV....

Dear all, I have some questions for what I'm about to do with my HomeLab....

I want to build a proper server with room for 40+ HDDs to move my media server to and have RAID 1. I know a lot about PCs and software, but when it comes to server hardware I have no clue what I'm doing. How would I go about building a server that has access to 40+ RAID 1'd HDDs?

I have a small client on the side that I am looking to get more durable off-site backups done. I personally use restic and resticprofile in my homelab without issue. The issue is that I would like to give them some kind of GUI and from what I see, none of the restic ones will do it....
