Selfhosted
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.
Rules:
-
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
-
No spam posting.
-
Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.

I've had great experiences with exactly one vendor of second hand disks.
https://serverpartdeals.com/
Currently running 8x14TB in a striped & mirrored zpool.
I wish this was an option for Europe. Once you slap VAT and shipping, you end up paying more than for new disks. :(
I can proxy for you.
They don't charge me tax and only $15 shipping. Then shipping within the EU is 15 euros max
How does this work, some loophole or a business customer? You can drop some info in a private message if you don't f feel like posting in public. Re server part deals, I am not sure if this is always the case, but the current selection of disks is 90% helium (Exos etc) HDDs, a few IronWolfs which are too large (20TB) and basically that's it. My DIY NAS is unfortunately in the apartment and I'm reluctant to try He disks due to the intensive sound profile.
