Hello! You probably got here by visiting fishys.space.
This domain is just for my selfhosted things (for example, this Wiki!).
I'm not sure what else to put here, but here are some devices and their specs:
Three times more powerful than the HPE Proliant tower it replaced, while using far less power and creating far less noise.
CPU | i7 4770 |
---|---|
RAM | 20GB (4 + 8 + 8) |
OS | Proxmox VE |
PSU | Stock |
Prim SSD | 250GB Crucial MX500 |
Sec SSD | 240GB Crucial BX500 |
It runs most of the applications on the network, such as this Wiki, UNMS, GitLab and Plex.
With (2) 2TB WD Blacks in RAID 0. Nothing too important is stored here and backups are taken somewhat regularly.
A tower server I picked up from eBay as an upgrade from a single Raspberry Pi.
CPU | Xeon E5606 |
---|---|
RAM | 12GB ECC |
OS | Proxmox VE |
PSU | Seasonic S12-II 520W |
SSD | RAID |
240GB Crucial BX500 | (2) 2TB WD Black, in RAID 0 |
The Seasonic PSU replaced the original 460W Delta unit that was incredibly loud. The SSD and drives were moved to the ThinkCentre/Syno so this no longer gets much use.
The 3B acts as a reverse proxy using NGINX (you're accessing this Wiki through it!). It also serves as a general miscellaneous web server and a platform for some small Discord bots.
The 0 runs Pi-Hole to block ads/tracking across the network by acting as a DNS server.
Thought I'd try the cheaper UI Edge lineup before spending outrageous sums on UniFi gear
Very overkill for this setup but it integrates with UNMS along with the EdgeRouter and means I won't run out of ports anytime soon.
Picked up for cheap on eBay - offers excellent wireless performance as an access point. I make no use of any of the modem/router functionality.
Previously my primary router, it's now used as a secondary access point.
This is Virgin Media's DOCSIS modem. Since they give the same device to business customers, it handily has a bridge mode.
If you're here, you might fancy a skim of my awful homelab-related blog posts
If you want to get started on your own homelab, I recommend /r/homelab and their excellent wiki.
You almost certainly shouldn't take my anything listed on this page as a recommendation - I just about know what I'm doing myself!
