It should work, but its kinda one of those things where you won’t know until you try. As long as the Ethernet adapter is using an Intel or Realtek chipset, you shouldn’t have any issues driver-wise

I’ve never had good luck with any of Sabrent’s USB drive enclosures lasting that long. The last one I had also stopped showing up and made the disk make weird clicking noises after a few months of just sitting there. When I took the disk out of it and plugged it into a computer via SATA directly, the drive was perfectly fine and had no SMART errors

If you have a need for Calendar or To-dos, Radicale is a nice CalDAV/CardDAV server that’s pretty tiny. For me its sitting there at idle using 35MB of RAM.

In addition to what others have said, Syncthing will use public relay servers if it can’t make a direct connection between your devices. Everything is encrypted, so it’s not unsafe or anything as far as i know, but if you want to run your own private Syncthing relay server, you can. (Or run your own public one)

Servers are Debian Desktop is Arch Laptop is EndeavorOS

Yesterday, following Vimeo’s recent acquisition by a private equity firm…

Well, I guess thats the end of Vimeo

It least Instagram straight up doesn’t give a changelog, rather than letting you read dumb exposition that tells you nothing. (Thats still crap tho)

There used to be an exploit in an older version of the Authy desktop app that could let you export your 2FA keys, but i dont think you can sign in on the old desktop apps anymore (iirc the app was made in Electron and they left chromium’s developer tools enabled in it, which allowed you to run your own JS or something like that). It’s always a pain to move 2FA keys to a new app.

in 3 years PC build guides are gonna be like “You need 3 drives in your gaming PC. One for the OS (this can be small, its not important), at least 2TB for games, and another 1TB for the shaders for those games. Oh and you’ll need a top of the line Nvidia card because even a dumb UE5 asset dump game like Notary Simulator won’t run on a budget card”

I could see making sure the NAS’ case is a well built/sealed one to reduce noise. I have 4 of those Seagate enterprise drives in a mesh case and boy are they loud lmao, so I get where OP is coming from.

the cats are gonna take up the whole bed and then you’ll be forced to sleep in the maze

Absolutely hate having to log in to a website just to view tracking. Half the time I’m on my phone checking the tracking email and can’t be bothered to log in, just so I can copy and paste the tracking number into USPS or whoever.

“Your performance has dropped in the last quarter. Are you sure you’re making use of the AI tools?” “Its because I’m using the AI tools. Its re-implemented an HTTP request library at least 500 different times in 500 different ways”

adding on to Noise, if you do end up in a situation where you’re considering buying refurbished enterprise hard disks, know that they are louder than normal consumer drives, esp if you have 4 of them running at once in a NAS

whoa this program looks cool af

Definitely gonna play with this later

My TrueNAS setup uses a used Ryzen 3200G and mATX motherboard I got off of ebay for about $100 total. Honestly, any CPU with integrated graphics should be fine, so maybe something like the Intel 8500T, which was specifically a low power SKU could also work. Unless you plan on doing a lot of video transcoding, then you might need something more powerful (or a low end GPU like the Intel Arc A310 or a Radeon 6400 to go with it)

I’m not so sure how TrueNAS Scale determines how much RAM to allocate for ZFS, but at least with Proxmox, the wiki says you want to have at least 2GiB + (1 GiB/TiB of storage) of RAM to be able to be allocated.

If you’re looking to use 2TiB of storage, that would be at least 4GiB of RAM dedicated just to ZFS cache, so 8GiB of RAM would probably suit you. You might need to get more RAM in the future if you want to go with more storage at that time.

As for a case, anything will do as long as it can hold however many hard drives you ultimately wish to put in it.

Capitalism’s going well…

nightmare

Oh and they can open up a store that sells basics like bread and water. And a Laundromat on site, so they dont have to go home. Oh and you can just pay them company credits instead of actual currency, in order to really maximize those profits.

A used i5-8500T or similar sounds pretty good, actually. Idk about Europe, but in the US you can get them second hand for like $30 on ebay. Seems like you can also find Passive coolers for that socket too on ebay, if you really want.

If you can find an ITX board that has the correct socket second hand, then you’d be good to go, and have options for expansion, if its got a pcie slot.

I’ve got a NAS built with used parts and its been fine for me so far. Its not as low power as yours, but the components were cheap enough that I could spend more on storage. And when its just idling, I don’t think it uses that much power (Never actually measured the power consumption at the plug. Its a Ryzen 3200g) but it sits at like 2% CPU usage most of the time with the host OS and 3 VMs running.

they’re using the Wi-fi radiation to cook your meals /s

Thats really, really dumb. I can understand maybe wanting the option of having your oven ping your phone when the timer goes off, but what could it possibly need internet access for in order to turn on the heating element and a fan for a set period of time??
