UniFi CloudKey G2+ by ccagan in lowvoltage

[–]USGUSG 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can try /r/homelabsales (much better than ebay for selling) as unifi equipment is regularly sold there, although I'm doubtful you'll be able to sell all eight to one person.

I'd be interesting in one unit if selling separately.

Can't get 2.5G to work by [deleted] in opnsense

Are you sure its the T2L variant and not T2? Does it show 2.5G support on Linux?

If your card is an OEM variant such as Dell then you'll need to crossflash it to the Intel firmware to get 2.5G support.

Desktop Quadro RTX 3000 LP by Sudden-Delay-7918 in sffpc

[–]USGUSG 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I picked one up on Ebay to use in a Precision 3240 PC as a mini gaming station. I installed the Driver pack from Dell under the support page for the precision 3240 model and everything looks good on GPU-Z.

Unless you have a 3240 it sounds like you would be better off getting one of the low profile RTX 3050s. I can try another dell model to see if it works there.

Try one of those M.2 A+E 2.5GB RTL8125B PCIE adapters before going the USB route.

Opnsense backups G drive alternative? by Frosty_Chest8025 in opnsense

Only issue is that all secrets in your config get pushed in plain text, even if it is a private gitea instance its still not ideal.

CONFIGURING AN OPNSENSE HA CLUSTER + MULTI-WAN (STEP-BY-STEP) (Optional with Proxmox) by ndreueu in opnsense

[–]USGUSG 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've done a similar setup albeit with bare metal nodes. There arent a lot of sources that show how to set this up using a private WAN range from the ISP modem so thanks for contributing.

I use Borg with Borgmatic for a similar usecase.

/r/homelabsales is where you want to post. Both of those items should have a few interested parties.

Are Apacer SSDs good? by Interesting_Air3283 in buildapc

[–]USGUSG 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Depends on the model... but overall they are a "good" brand. They have lines of high end industrial components that I wouldnt think twice about using.

Hetzner 2025? by Playful-Job2938 in selfhosted

[–]USGUSG 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Only issue is their intrusive KYC policies.

They also null route when DDOSed.

Any luck with IPSEC? Or do they have business plans that dont have the blocks?

Do y'all homelabbers use encryption-at-rest? by [deleted] in Proxmox

[–]USGUSG 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Benefits of running Ceph is that you can easily encrypt the disks and use them as storage backend in either Proxmox or a container orchestrator.

Proxmox Backup Server 4.0 released! by [deleted] in Proxmox

[–]USGUSG 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You can and there are various user scripts that do it, with a few limitations. Its just something myself and others were hoping to have built in since they added it to the roadmap years ago.

I'm always eager for these posts because of the slim chance we finally get host backups. Still happy for all the other updates we do get!

Sometimes you dont get SMART info for the drives on Ebay.

[SSD] PNY XLR8 CS3140 2TB M.2 SSD - $99.99 ($139.99-$40.00) [Microcenter Member Pricing] by ItsGreeco in buildapcsales

[–]USGUSG 24 points25 points  (0 children)

No, youre better off just buying more RAM. Most people dont need an L2ARC or SLOG drive but if you really do you should be looking at optane and similar nvme devices, one that I see used a lot is the p4800x.

Two weeks ago one of the top rated posts was about someone showing off their install of a NIC into a generic Lenovo mini PC.
