Is this like r/Homelab?

Cuz if it is then lets get this going.

I got 3 servers

--Database Server-- Ryzen 3 3200G 16GB DDR4 12x 512 SSD's 1x 1TB NVME SSD Rosewill L4500U UnRaid Pro

--Game Server-- Ryzen 5600x 64GB DDR4 1x 1TB NVME SSD Rosewill R4000U Windows 10 Pro

All in a 42U Dell Server rack with amazon NeoPixles LEDs

This would be awesome if c/Homelab takes off.

What OS are you running on each server? Curios about the DB server, I have on virtualized with libvirt and debian 11.

I am running UnRaid on both server boxes. The DB server is only running Postgress12, MariaDB, Redis, Wireguard, and my Martix chat server, all dockerized ofcorse.

I wanted it to be Low power, and have Maxium uptime. So far we are going on 2 months and not a single hiccup. CPU load hovers around 4%-20%.

I really like the Rosewill cases. I have three L4500U's in my rack right now and a 4th in storage for "just in case" lol.

I got them several years ago right as they were becoming really hard to find. Mine are the USB 2.0 version, but that's not a big deal. They were around $100 back then, instead of the $200+ now. Sometimes they get some hate for being "cheap", but for me they are perfect and I would much rather have one then some super micro chassis.

Right, I dont need Jet-Engine Volume dual PSU's for a home lab. My sits in the den, I replaced all the fans with Nocuta fans and Silverstone 5-Drive Hotswaps (15 Total) and now they are dead silent, I dont even notice them half of the time. Let alone there beeing 3 of them.

I just bought 3 HP EliteDesk 705 G4 the other day starting a kurbenetes cluster.

Currently I am using my desktop for Plex due to storage. I got a 42U APC rack with one mini pc for kurbenetes for my other services.

I hope so, r/homelab has been a valuable resource for my home projects.
