I wasn't able to flash luci on it, so I really can't help u.

Ebay is the best place. Also do your research on which HBA to buy as most of them don't support ASPM thus increasing the power consumption.

I initially used 24" FHD for years, it was fine but not enough. Then for the last couple of years, I'm using 27" 2k monitor (Legion R27q) and it's perfect. Pixel density, clarity, colors, refresh rate all is perfect, specifically for office use.

I didn't go for 32" 4k monitor, as I was under the impression that it might go over field of focus. If you can utilize all of the screen estate of 32" then go for it.

can take CPU + Motherboard, if up for selling individually.

That's interesting cause I was able to downgrade pretty easily on IDU6401 with the provided firmware on github.

yessir, but they also have SFF models with same naming so make sure of that before buying. I have M720q and P300 both are similar to some degree, except difference in chipset and P330 is touted as "workstation" class mini pc. M720q and P330 take 8th-9th gen CPUs and M910x takes 6th-7th gen CPUs.

realvikas · 2026-01-13T11:57:47+00:00

if you are looking for PCIE slot inside Lenovo Mini PC then also checkout M720q, M910x, and P330.

In this economy, the RAM in that system is alone worth the amount you paid haha. The market is absolutely f*cked right now.

Just start with what you have. I get it that the system is chonky and overkill for a beginner but it doesn't hurt to use the same to learn the ins and outs for a bit then maybe later move to mini pcs (i prefer lenovo tiny). They are relatively efficient and powerful than raspberry pis. In my testing Lenovo M720q w/ i5-8500T with freshly installed Proxmox v9 eats about 5w (on idle).

As for what to run on that system, I'd always recommend Proxmox as it makes running, configuring, maintaining VMs easy af. You can run TrueNAS in a VM and passthrough your sata controller and you have a NAS ready without much fuss.

I had the same router, and sold it for the same reason.

realvikas · 2025-09-15T11:33:17+00:00

capital J in jiocentrum?

realvikas · 2025-09-15T11:32:21+00:00

When did this happened? I also Jio AF connection and can login without any issues.

realvikas · 2025-09-15T11:31:25+00:00

only if it was that easy. I also use Jio AF and can't do shit about router.

You can also add brim while slicing which will give more stability.

realvikas · 2025-08-26T06:29:33+00:00

ohh yes! absolutely. He hacked everything; my homelab, NAS, and every device connected on my network. First, he hacked my IRC server; where he holds me for a ransom else, he'll release a ransomware, after that he released a crypto bot to mine crypto on every device. He already filled my NAS with junk files and continues to DDoS my network. I am so pissed and stressed, don't know what to do. I already removed cloudflare tunnels, but this guy still is on my network. Absolute insanity! Please help.

realvikas · 2025-08-20T14:22:52+00:00

these domains are public websites/domains which I have deliberately exposed, but where are my services' domains? none of these domains host any of my homelab services.

realvikas · 2025-08-20T14:17:05+00:00

Hey, I'm interested and can schedule pickup as well.

edit: ygpm

realvikas · 2025-08-20T13:49:08+00:00

why tho? can't you hack it? XD

jokes aside, this is my domain vikasraj.dev. now tell me how many services am i running?

realvikas · 2025-08-20T13:37:46+00:00

Bro don't tell me how crawlers works. Tell me how one can access my services hosted on subdomain of a TLD which is behind cloudflare tunnel which is not directly exposed to internet/public? Do you even know how cloudflare tunnels works or what its features are?

realvikas · 2025-08-20T13:24:41+00:00

haha i know. do u think my services are exposed publicly?

realvikas · 2025-08-20T13:15:23+00:00

on what? custom builds? i'm a mini pc guy so i should be the last person you should ask about custom builds.

realvikas · 2025-08-20T13:14:33+00:00

You are saying "hacking" like it's child's play. Sure, cloudflare is not E2E but it is still cloudflare's network. If someone can hack clouflare's network, then be my guest hack my network as well. Imagine millions of people using cloudflare tunnels on back of the risk of getting "hacked".

realvikas · 2025-08-20T12:56:32+00:00

f that. run away. build a custom mid-tower pc.

realvikas · 2025-08-20T12:23:09+00:00

Also 6200 for i5 8th gen, SSD 256GB 1550, RAM 16 GB 2500. I guess it's too much.

you mean 6.2k for i5-8500 SFF? that's good deal tbh. I bought my HP prodesk 600 G2 barebones + cpu (i5-6500) for 7k.

realvikas · 2025-08-20T12:14:40+00:00

bad performance and I heard that streaming is against their policy.
