DIYing an Efficient Home Server
Building a server for Proxmox to do NAS, cloud file hosting, and maybe more in the future. I focused on power efficiency, and despite some small problems achieving higher c-states, I think it has come out alright.
I'm using SMB shares for local NAS, with Filestash for my cloud storage running on Docker inside a Debian VM. I'm using Caddy for the webserver, and Portainer for container management.
Specs:
Intel 13400
Asrock Z790 Pro RS Wifi
SK Hynix P41 1TB
Samsung 990 Pro 4TB
2x Toshiba MG09 18TB
Dell Y5M7N (Intel x710)
Superflower Leadx 850w Titanium
Rosewill L4500U Case

Shill time! This is a tiny leak detector pcb I designed. Works great with ESPHome (especially the SEEED Xiao ESP32-C3) or Arduino/STM32. Almost no power draw when dry, so it will be great for battery powered circuits. FYI: You must use a RTC pin for wake from deep sleep, so the direct edge to edge mount won't work for this, as GPIO10 on the Xiao ESP32-C3 is not an RTC pin. Purchase Link: www.et...

    Buy a high quality Seasonic PSU and return whatever cheapo you bought. Add a little extra power budget for future upgrades. You won't regret it...but you might regret a cheap PSU when it takes out your motherboard and drives. I usually run high quality power supplies for about 15 years (multiple builds) before I move them to less critical platforms. Mostly due to fear that the capacitors will dry/leak. The upfront investment is worth it for the lifespan you will get. I can't say the same for cheap PSUs.

    My surface pro keeps getting slower and slower with every forced update that it’s soon it will no longer be an option to switch the device to Linux. My daily driver laptop also has windows and the bloat it deals with each boot up and having to wait for antimalware executable to call the fuck down also has me getting closer and closer to making the switch. The biggest hurdle is honestly taking the time to catalog all my applications to figure out which ones are going to need an alternative, plus I’d have to reinstall all of my games in Linux format.

  • @CarlosGonzalez-mp9re

    Depending on your needs I think the best choices are Debian, if you want something that just works, Arch if you like to tinker with stuff, and maybe openSUSE for a middle ground, if you work in tech, Debian and Arch might be too extreme in their respective philosophies. Also YaST is cool. Also I prefer European corporate rot over American corporate rot. Outside of that, I think Linux Mint is pretty good for beginners. Oh! And I want to try KDE Linux, it doesn't exist yet, but if it has a better installation experience than base Arch, it'd be pretty cool. For me, even with archinstall script, it was pretty difficult to install Arch alongside another distros in the same disk while all the other distros I tried were easy peasy in that sense. Yes, I've been distrohopping like crazy the last month 😂😂😂

    the only problem when people move into linux is, they treat linux to be a replacement of their previous os as a substitution, not as an complimentary. So they use their previous habits of using win/mac on linux, which is by default is wrong.

    In the Linux context, GNU is NOT the name of some South African antelope. As most Linux users know, GNU stands for GNU's not Unix, which makes the term a recursive acronym, or an acronym in which one of the letters stands for the acronym itself. In my opinion, it should be pronounced with the hard G (two syllables). Thanks for the entertaining video =)

    Hi! First of all, I would like to thank you for the effort you put into this video to explain all the trouble you went through along the way. At least for myself, it really helped me during my build, as the original documentation is more of a suggestion than an actual guide and you have to figure alot of things by yourself. I bought the exact parts in the MGNZ guide and once they arrived, tried to put them together. It did not work. :-) After extensive troubleshooting, I found that the ZVS board was drawing too much current and causing the power supply to restart. The restart took more than 5 seconds, and I had it se for 5 seconds, so no annealing took place. I partially solved this by winding a new coil and by turning down the voltage on the power supply to 40V, but i still sometimes ran into the current limit. I will now be installing a 1000W 48V meanwell. 🙂 so far, other things seem to be holding up but it took some time to get everything to fit right and work together. I also ended up designing alot of custom parts to make the build a bit less "diy". in case anyone is interested, you can find the files on printables, if you search for MGNZ annealer www.printables.com/model/1111656-mgnz-induction-annealer-additional-parts-and-addon I also ran into the problem of the restarting control board once i tried running the auto mode. Thanks to your video, i figured out the shielding which solved my issue. My plan now is to wait for the Chinese ZVS to fail and then build the schematix board with quality components from mauser. Regarding the changes you made to his design, from what i saw from your videos and read in the comments, you use 10x 220nF caps, where he recommends 10x 470nF caps. Did you have to make any other component changes to make this work (other than the work coil design)? What i still dont understand is how the toroidal inductors work together with the other components. All the ZVS boards i"ve seen use pretty much the same two inductors, so did you keep the same spec. as in the design from schematix? Finally i would love to see an update on this project! Its been more than 2 years since the release of this video. Did you end up making any changes or did you keep this setup as good enough? 🙂

And, to be sure I am "done setting up my PC" I need to sent MS my entire computer (incl tax info, SS numbers, account login info/UNs etc) to their Cloud for their review, I mean backup. Also, they want me to improve my PC security by signing up for facial recognition so MS can hijack my face for whatever AI purpose they desire. So, you bet I will be doing these last simple tasks on an old PC and O/S that has apparently been running INCOMPLETE for years and I never knew it! Thanks for taking care of me Bill!

    I was hoping you could help me. I am looking for a solution to trigger a smart switch via a wifi api call. I have a project where I have 100 smart buttons throughout the building. they are all connected via Bluetooth to a main hub. When you click any button, it sends its unique ID to the main hub which then uses an api to send that data to a cloud database. We now want a way to send back to another device (Ideally wifi) directly to a device and trigger an event, (turn on or off a light)

    • @TechDregs
      @TechDregs 6 дней назад

      I would think the solution would be based on what your main hub is. I would probably set up Home Assistant if it's possible. It's specifically designed for that type of thing. If the hub has an integration for HA, then if it can get all the bluetooth devices integrated, you can set those switches up on automations to turn other things on and off easily.
