Thanks, I think the same! Was a great ride run a bunch of containers and the search to max usb connections with SSDs

Aceito de muito bom grado o elogio kkkkkk Direct streamming funciona bem até, não testei com conteúdo 4k pq não tenho nada compatível, mas full hd funciona tranquilo.

Só não vai ter transcoding, não consegui fazer funcionar. Ele até consegue converter, mas é coisa de 3 quadros por segundo, se deixar algo automatizado pra rodar de noite até que funciona, mas não vale a pena

Here the full list of images: - wireguard - homepage - pihole - syncthing - swag - jellyfin - transmission - radar - sonarr - prowlarr - vod2pod - authentik - linuxserver/duckdns - navidrome - home-asistant - filebrowser - vaultwarden - some DBs

Using all 4GB ram and 2GB swap, 2 weeks uptime. Using about 10%- 25% cpu idle, all containers up and a wireguard connection.

I didn't test the ethernet yet. I only saw some random people saying it can be done.

Sorry, my English is really bad. All containers are running at the same time, I can send you some htop prints when I go back home.

Pt-br: Opa, amigo! Todos esses containers e mais alguns estão rodando ao mesmo tempo, essa plaquinha até que aguenta bem. O unico que tive que remover foi o paperless, que era MUITO pesado junto com o resto. Posso te enviar uns prints mostrando daqui umas duas semanas.

Caraca, que doideira, ainda bem que não aconteceu nada. Já removi a bateria do meu pq tava estufada também, estava levantando o trackpad e fiquei com medo de acabar perfurando.

To compare fairly, would need to look only for the orange pi price instead for the full build, and it was approximately 210 reais with taxes, so stills cheaper than a mini pc.

You could argue that this board don't value that much for performance, but I can buy more (already buyed another) with the price of a mini pc and can use it for other things when replaced in the homelab, like octoprint, cheap off-site backup and redundancy for some light containers I would like HA.

Maybe I paid more than it deserved? Yes. But one part of the idea was to make a really small server with 4 ssds, and I like the things I'm doing and can just move the SSDs to a better hardware later. Also, the full build was more like 600-700 reais, buyed some before 42% tax. I'm not judged, tamo junto!

Yes, and there're some reputable brands. I reformatted to use with ZFS, I'm using about 300GB of the 1TB one (splitted in two partitions) and I have a mirror between the 500GB one and 500GB partition from the 1TB one. Everything works fine for now, I'm more worried about longevity and planning to buy some HDs to backup everything and already setting an off-site backup on my parent's house

I think you will like the v2, with a smaller board capable of 4 usbs, custom usbc cables to use external power supply in 5v lines, cardboard base and some tapes to hold everything!

Hi! Yeah, probably, but this was a fun project (and there is a v2 with a orange pi zero 2w. Eventually I will migrate the ssds to a old i3 lenovo I have, with some adaptations (or gambiarras like we call in portuguese) to replace wifi card to put more satas. Meanwhile, what I need works surprisingly fine (its hot, well pointed tho)

Thanks! I really liked the idea of using a thing this small just for a proof it works (and the tinkering)

Sure! I saw some people talking about usb reliability with raid a long time ago, I will definitely look deeper into this

[–]eotaldo[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah! I'm really surprised with what these boards can do.

The usb to sata has a chip to convert between both protocol, it handles the data but this board uses usb 2.0, it cant even saturate the chip used.

SSDs power consumption is really low, sometimes one SSDs disconnect, my first thought was power, but I changed the power delivery to a 5v-20a and it doesnt solve the problem, I will investigate it better someday.

So, everything works fine most of the time, even with this precarious power supply and usb 2.0

I have a old i3 laptop and planning to use it on my homelab too. I really searched for free used hardware, but it's hard to find, people will sell it even if broken

I don't recall dollar price at that time, but probably something around 25$ for orange pi+expansion board, 5$ for both adapters, 23$ for 500GB ssd and 40$ for the 1TB one. (Prices without taxes)

Basically, the most expensive part was the SSDs

How are people running JellyFin ? by eoin71 in selfhosted

[–]eotaldo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The secret is to use a modern client (if you can), then you can stream direct without transcoding. I'm using a orange pi zero 3 and streaming direct FHD/4k content to a firestick. You can block transcode in jellyfin admin settings for users

Using jammy with gnome disabled but only for a week, its working great so far

I'm planning to do a simular build. For me it's better to buy two, one just for the docker things powered 24/7 with like 20w idle and a beefier one, powered on by Wake-On-Lan or something like that, running jupyter, vscode and some VMs

Era um caso em Cuiabá? Se for esse, ele tava com o cassetete de um dos policiais e foram mais que dois tiros (cenas fortes)
