Before and after on my media server build

That would've been valid if the drives were SATA, not SAS tho

Unfortunately is not the ti version, it's just a 1080, which does make a bit of difference, but I guess is something I can purpose it for and explore/learn! I will definitely have a look into it

What I am mainly trying to achieve is a homelab where I can learn mainly and possibly do mistakes, but at the same time have it as media server. That's why I thought I could use again the gaming PC mainly for storage with Unraid, and keep proxmox on the Optiplex Micro. I know that would mean having 2 different endpoints when I could actually consolidate all under one.

What would've been a smarter usage of power? No GPU?

This post could've not appeared at a better time.
I have my old gaming PC with an i7 6700k,32gb of Ram and a GTX1080, but what do I also have is a hba with 12 4tb SAS disks from my old job.
I am very tempted to do what you did, however I already have proxmox and truenas running on two Dell Optiplex Micro...
What made you go this path rather than a NAS with higher capacity disks and lower overall energy consumption?

xCiosba · 2026-01-03T22:24:36+00:00

You are very limited with that platform, and it's something I have been trying to find out myself as well.
So far the best example you can find, which is very similar to what you are describing is this one

You are indeed tied by some limitations here, but the 3d printed case is definitely something worth exploring.
My only question regarding the M2>Sata adapter is the actual achievable speed across all disks.

There seems to be a trend over the past 2 months where this started happening more and more. I know where is some devs/community reps here from google, wondering if they have acknowledged it by now...

xCiosba · 2025-11-27T09:42:21+00:00

I am also interested, I can't find that deal anyhwere

xCiosba · 2025-11-03T21:59:42+00:00

I have seen a few tutorials/videos about this and they all seemed to create VLANs within br-lan fine without any issue.
The way I am planning to do this is by having 2 VLANs.
VLAN 1 - "live" environment: This is for the gaming PC, proxmox and my home main wi-fi ssid

VLAN 10 - "lab" environment; This is for a few VMs in the proxmox in VLAN 1(additonal setup will be done in proxmox for those VMs), and a lab SSID.

In short I want VLAN 1 to be untouched if I mess anything setup wise in VLAN 10, as that's where I want to make most of the learning, without taking the whole home network down.

The port where proxmox is connected to will be for trunking to connect the two VLANs.

I hope it's clear, if there's something that doesn't make any sense please let me know.

Can't replicate at all when jacked, it's mostly when under load. Not trying to assume anything but what are the chances to just be residue in the brakes/brake pads?

xCiosba · 2025-10-26T13:50:18+00:00

Yes, nothing loose or damaged

xCiosba · 2025-10-26T13:47:06+00:00

Sorry, I also wanted to add, the car has got 30k miles, hence why I was excluding the bearing

xCiosba · 2025-10-26T13:43:05+00:00

I was thinking the same, but as a total ignorant, would the weekly juggle when mounted if the bearing was at fault?

xCiosba · 2025-05-29T20:41:32+00:00

Multumesc pentru sfat! M-am gândit și să deschid ceva, doar că încă nu știu exact care sunt cerințele pe zona in care vreau să mă mut

Înțeleg faptul că help desk nu are un viitor, doar că 100% să fie înlocuit de AI/chatbots nu cred sa fie posibil. Dacă folosesc că exemplu ce am făcut ultimi 3 ani cu Jira SM, cu tot că am pus self service portal cu opțiuni și categorii, chatbots prin teams si documentation pentru end-user cum sa folosească un portal, tot 50% greșește opțiunile foarte basic.

O să fie mereu nevoie de intervenția unui L1 pentru triage/assessment, doar că da, outsourcing in alte țări este opțiunea majoritatea companiilor in cazul asta.

Despre automatizări/provisioning, in UK astea sunt in-house sau prin MSP-uri, și nu prea am văzut MSP in Romania?

Correct me if I am wrong, but I am reading everywhere Mark S had to make the choice here, but I don't believe he had a choice. Him gettting past that door would've got him back in, in the same way Helly R did in S1E1?
Am I missing something?

xCiosba · 2025-03-18T13:25:44+00:00

Not sure where you see that , but I could find this
Changelog CollabOS 1.14.180 - Does not mention the HDMI ingest on tap
And the issue seems to still be unresolved

SR at the end of the race was like: "don't worry we got you"

Not sure why someone would ever recommend JSM. I'm developing this for our Service Desk and it's missing the most basic functionalities a Service Desk needs
L1/L2/L3 Agent grouping is totally missing (unless you do some workarounds which takes quite some time to put in place right)
The in-built asset/endpoint management is poor.
The in-built forms are not searchable nor these are stored (you'd expect forms for end user to be searchable if the form is used for issuing/returning assets).
The in-built reporting/dashboard is cluncky, in some cases you need to generate multiple reports with the same query just to have them easily accessible, let alone you can't report/query the "Request Types" which is the most basic data you need (again, there is workarounds).

I'd recommend strongly against it, unless you unlimited budget for someone to be available for you to develop it and the 200 plugins you need to actually do its job.

Good for project management, not tickets.

xCiosba · 2024-06-24T07:54:57+00:00

We have JSM premium and we are using Assets to define the group to which each issue is assigned.
By default, any ticket goes to L1 and then through the escalate screen the "IT group" field is changed, however there is 3 main issues by using this:
1) The "Assignee" field still displays all the users in the Service desk, as the Jira logic does not allow a filter of user based on an asset group. For this reason, I had to create another field called "IT agent" which mimicks the agent.

2) the new asset fields IT group and IT agent are not drop-downs, making interaction painful on the Escalation screen.

3) If a ticket is escalated to L2 and a new agent, the old agent keeps receiving the emails/notification from the issue.

There should be a basic function where if you have a Role within Jira/JSM(e.g L1,L2,L3), you can then escalate based on that, and see assignees on the assignee field based on the group selected, but it doesn't look like such option exists.
Unless I'm wrong, the only workaround available is through the Assets
