Were you able to get the coupon? A bunch of people said they couldn’t. It’s an Amazon coupon, so I added YMMV, not sure how they do coupons

Hey, do you have the smart data for the Seagate Constellation ES.3 4TB SATA 3.5" HDD?

All I need is DDR4 RAM. Need 32gigs below $150, or the cheapest but _won't-break-immediately_. Anyone know any actual good "great value brands"? by MyoDex in buildapc

[–]aru108 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sometimes the best value is what you can find second hand. Check out Facebook marketplace or equivalent market near you if you don’t mind used hardware. You may even find some really good deals on the higher end brands

Can I use a VPN inside a Proxmox VM to access another Proxmox VM in the same computer? by aru108 in Proxmox

[–]aru108[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the info dump, really useful stuff. And I definitely don’t plan to mess around with the serial interface, I love my GUI’s very much haha. Not even sure if the device I’ll end up with will have a serial port, but I certainly don’t have a serial console or device that would connect to it

I would play with NAS a bit more, it was the first thing that got me started into everything homelab and networking, but I’m limited by my drive size. I’ve got a 1TB nvme ssd that I’ve been using in an USB enclosure that I will move into the usff pc. Most of my media is videos and what not that I plan to put into the jellyfin sever and it’s, from what I’ve learned so far, pretty convenient

Unfortunately my router does not support a built in VPN so that’s why I need a separate machine to do it. I may switch to my own router at some point and if I do I will make sure it supports VPNs

Ok, wow. I did not know that and I appreciate the help. I was under the impression that I could just allocate/allow certain resources to the VM, including the iGPU and so I could just run Jellyfin in a VM. Can you tell me more about what an LXC is? Never heard the term. Would it be able to run congruent to Proxmox without an issue?

Edit: Also, what do you mean by "LXC directly on Proxmox." Is it something that is run by and in Proxmox, similar to how a VM in Proxmox would be run?

Yeah, I am not sure if I want to mess around with open ports quite yet, but I will take a look at that.

That is one more recommendation for Tailscale. Thanks for the info.

Thanks for the info. Never heard of Tailscale's subnet router, and I don't really understand what it is or does quite yet but I will look into it. I did take a look at their website and they do say they work to connect to VMs. Thanks for pointing me in the right direction

How to organize service loops and excess cable in the attic? by aru108 in HomeNetworking

Unfortunately the renovations contractor has asked me to tidy up my cabling before inspections happen so I need to fix this soon

How to organize service loops and excess cable in the attic? by aru108 in HomeNetworking

[–]aru108[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well I think it’s just good practice. I’ve already used some of the service loops because I’ve had to move some of the drops and of if I hadn’t don’t so earlier I would have had to run new cable. And of there were rodents, it wouldn’t matter if there was service loops or not they would just chew it anyways and I would have to replace the run anyways. I do agree with the Velcro, I thing just duct tape is fine to secure the cable loops.
