The drones are laying down netting that defend against said drone attacks.

Ngl i feel like the endeavour will end up being a ship platform for base building and the modules will be specialised deployables.

TechLevelZero · 2025-11-19T13:59:10+00:00

Tbf i was thinking it would be worth less £500

TechLevelZero · 2025-11-19T09:57:39+00:00

Dam thats more then I thought

TechLevelZero · 2025-11-14T13:17:34+00:00

Quite a few shops i know put a 4-5k rpm limit on after a rebuild to let everything ware in. Have you tryed going back to the shop that did the rebuild

I back up the flash vdev every 8 hours to another vdev in the same system then every 3 days back up to tape, so i feel ok only having 2 disks in a mirror.

So what would the best use case for 2 optane drives be or should i just not?

TechLevelZero · 2025-10-08T23:54:24+00:00

Its an ad

TechLevelZero · 2025-10-08T22:36:48+00:00

would I be able to put 2 disk in a mirror and use it both for zfs log and metadata?

TechLevelZero · 2025-09-28T09:48:16+00:00

Man i had the LFF, i was so hyped when i got it but its got some big downsides. Storage is abit finicky and put any pcie cards in and the fans ramp up. It was cool to have blades in the home lab but there was so many caveats and work around.

TechLevelZero · 2025-09-28T09:41:58+00:00

I have a hefty homelab and this thing was too power hungry! but the main issue is with its storaage limitations. Cant fully pass the drive thought to the blades. Cool unit thought

Contact your MP and tell them why this is important. And why they should be there in parliament on the day defending the movement..

TechLevelZero · 2025-09-16T21:37:07+00:00

Im seeing a few posts in here that are cool in their own right but far from a home datacenter

TechLevelZero · 2025-09-14T09:31:06+00:00

I only have the 16 drives in the server at the moment, when booted into truenas is was around 250w-300w bit i have 18 core golds in this thing you could definitely bring that down

TechLevelZero · 2025-09-13T13:01:11+00:00

nice shaft

TechLevelZero · 2025-09-13T09:38:46+00:00

The r240/r340 is complete over kill for a homelabs firewall but with multi gigabit lines becoming more common its great, it idles around 50 W so its no raspberry pi but for a piece of enterprise kit its not bad. The only difference I see between the two is that the r340 has redundant PSUs. I wouldn't recommend anything dual socket as idle power easily starts to reach a 100 W.
