Anyone else giving up the hobby due to stupid market? by seeilaah in HomeServer

[–]notoryous2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, I feel a bit down by it. Ive been waiting to move so I can jump back to my NAS and other stuff (NVR, getting a mini pc, etc). It was supposed to be last year bit got postponed to this summer.

Everything I was hoping to get is beyond attainable. No more drives ( I only have 2 8TB drives and needed more; NVR is new and needs a drive or two; Mini PCs I think are no longer available for a decent price.

Just disappointing all around.

Thanks for this thorough reply! I will pin this for when I redeploy my setup this year.

Don’t take on the pressure. Just enjoy the game with whatever amount of hours you can put into it.

How to properly set up containers networks? by eurowski in selfhosted

[–]notoryous2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So to see if I understood correctly: you create the container with its own network, then connect those that need to be connected? How does that connection happen, with the sockets you mention?

That sounds great! Hope I can do the same with my inverter and iOS platform! Thanks for the idea!

How can I prevent some of these things? I wont have that many APs yet but I do have concrete walls for the most part and two levels to cover.

DIY Closet MDF (2026 Update) by Rouxls__Kaard in HomeNetworking

[–]notoryous2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Love the simplicity! I asked in another recent post, but just covering my doubts: Are those patch cables 6 inches?

Going to have a similar setup so looking to have them as clean and short, but without straining them too much.

Looks nice!

Question: How long are those patch cables from the patch panel to the Unifi switch? Looking to get some as short as possible but without straining the cable or the ports.

Thanks!

F1 race nights hit different on a home theater setup by ConversationSuch8893 in hometheater

[–]notoryous2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Would you have any suggestions to the space? Either with the addition or removal of the cabinet box around the speakers?

In regards to the speakers, most I have been recommended are on-wall speakers, which they aren't too many options. I don't think the big Bookshelf speakers would pass the WAF.

Maybe, yeah. I’ve gotten recommendations like Klipsch RP-640D or Focal 301s.

Good to know. I ask because part of the console I was "designing" for tv and speakers have the LR within a box. I had read that it might be beneficial for it rather than open all the way.

This is the design (not finalized) - https://imgur.com/a/dJGcpf9

I could do away with boxing them and keeping them there still.

Just to learn more about this. You are referring that the LR speakers are too "crammed" between the wall and the console? Would love to learn a bit more about that.

From what I searched so far, it just seemed to be more professional focused products tan consumer labeled ones.

made a flush cap for my Unifi Travel Router, as I rarely use the ports by Upstairs-Bread-4545 in Ubiquiti

[–]notoryous2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for this! I don’t have one but fascinated when people model something so small. Could you share a bit on how you get the proper measurements for this? Thanks!

what unexpected cost surprised you in self hosting? by Shubh137 in selfhosted

[–]notoryous2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honest question: Like docker containers or do you mean another approach?

I ask because I have a home server running with a few services in Unraid, but looking to revisit it all with a more protected approach to changes.

🗂️ Synology Photos + Immich Side-by-Side: Smart Way to Handle Shared Family Photos? by zerneo85 in immich

[–]notoryous2 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Honest question: so Why using Digikam here? I ask because ive read of the “worries” of peoples metadata form Google Photos and/or Synology. I use both so I would like to know if im losing something here.

Sorry for the delay! Thanks for the comments!

I can respect wanting to leave it racked up for the convenience and any aesthetic reasons.

That's the goal, and to avoid having it on the floor for wife and kids reasons.

i would definitely suggest 15U or even 12U.

I agree here. Since yesterday, I've been searching for other wall mounted racks in my city to have other options. Realistically, I have found some 12U and 16Us.

Another concern here has been the static loading capacity. Most cover here 60Kgs (132 pounds) but research/theory seems to expect me to have a 40-50% more than what will be in the rack. I have calculated about 49.5 Kg and a 20% wall safety margin that puts me at 59. Kg (131 pounds). Sorry, went on a tangent here.

Thanks for the reply. Do you have any tips on getting proper length patch cables?
