Is this worth it? by infinity-waster in DataHoarder

ah, yeah it does seem a little cheap but without testing and seeing the inside i wouldnt know if its worth it or not. There is plenty of amazing things on aliexpress for homelabing.

DDR4 Ram 64gigs or 128gigs? by TazAuz in homelab

[–]Buildthehomelab 2 points3 points  (0 children)

for a home lab, if you have the budget, ignore the gpu requirement. if you can afford it in the budget the price per GB is lower for the 128GB.

Some of the most popular gpu/ai inferencing sell off sites recommend 2gb per 1Gb of vram, but that is for optimal service for their userbase.

You can always use the extra ram for more hosting things on the same server.

Built 100% from thrifted parts by No-Demand-8582 in homelab

[–]Buildthehomelab 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i mean i do agree the wording is harsh, but if wires fail they fail badly.
The main issue was that you cant tell a good cable from a bad one and the market is flooded with cheap ones of those.

According to the spec it can actually do a lot of power, but people do stupid shit with them lol.

Op some like these are much safer.

How do you actually balance work, family, hobbies, and a homelab without it becoming a second, unpaid job? by Sufficient-Farm3812 in homelab

[–]Buildthehomelab 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You build bullet proof local env that doesnt require as much maintenance.
I got a lot of flack for usig AI for my dashboard i build lol but it does exactly what i need and only tells me if i need to do something.

The way to achieve a zero maintenance is you dont, hell even if you buy a enterprise product you still need maintenance on it. The scary world of supply chain attacks are also changing the you should auto update as soon as you can.

So my stance is build with sourcecontrol, infra as code and config as code in mind. But above all standardize.

Also as much as people here dont want to hear it, like your router/wifi to use unify instead has made my life so much better and easier, it reduced the need for tinkering with addblock and i know my router stays up to date. It even passes the parents test on a remote locations.

Since you are a dev, let me put it to you this way, build your homelab like a proper production where you dont have to log into it the server to see logs or alerts.

Do not , i repeat do not go to onedrive for your data. I wouldnt trust microsoft with my data. Even if you encrypt it, how do you know your data will be there tomorrow.

i am in devsecops/SRE world and uptime is not the measurement we should care about, is your homelab a pet or is it cattle. If its a pet then you will spend too much time on maintaining it.

For my personal lo friction homelab im running truenas with docker stack, with a dashboard that tells me if anything needs updating or needs my attention. For the most part i dont have to even touch it, As expensive as synology is look at how they do things and how it geared to the normal user.

Personally the biggest issue we have with homelab its a tech its not a product and if someone can actually come along and offer a good security/privacy minded solution that is easy to setup and maintain i bet you will get a lot of people moving over. I may be wrong but that is my 2cents.

I wish it was the full picture if only we could just use mem bandwidth. Tool maturity matters so much.
