Thanks for your high value contribution to this tread!

Well now it's becoming kind of a challenge: will AWS terminate/migrate the instance at some point, or will I be forced to reboot?

It's not internet facing and no port is opened, all it does is fire up a notification if/when something doesn't reply.

Even in the unlikely scenario that someone gain access to it (nobody did in the last ~4 years) that means that my VPN is already compromised and I've got bigger problems to worry about.

Just installed, it looks much better compared to 102 without removing any functionality. I love it!

Sounds super interesting, thanks for sharing! I'll definitely check it out later!

Quick question: are both docker and fs based on top of ssh or are there any more requirements? For example, do you expect the docker socket to be available over the network or do you open an ssh connection and then access the docker socket from there?

Thanks for all the tips, this is exactly the kind of things I was looking for that I wasn't thinking about. I guess I'll go with 3/4U since it looks like it's the easy solution to fit everything in.

The last question I've got is about the Sata backplate that some of them have in the front, is that compatible with any home PSU/Motherboard or does that require some special HW? I guess for SAS I would need an additional PCI card in order to support it, right?

Thanks, that's very helpful! I couldn't find much on Amazon but I can find some different retailers with better googling..
I guess the fans can be easily replaced since they seem normal-sized but now I'm wondering about the PSU, it looks like only some 4U can accommodate an ATX power supply but that would limit my choice immensely.
Are there any "server shaped" PSUs (how are they called?) that are also silent?

I would like to give it a go anyway even if it'll end up not meeting the WAR! I quite like the idea of having it all in an enclosed and tied up space..

Tunic was a huge revelation for me, absolutely recommendend!

I find myself wanting to sometimes game downstairs, streaming is not really good for that

Have you tried Moonlight + Sunshine? It's exactly developed with gaming and low latency in mind.

Thanks mate, I've got a couple games that I was looking forward to try!

I agree that the most popular distro should work better out of the box, having said that, there are other distros that are more user focused and mostly noob friendly like VanillaOS, Nitrux and PopOS.

As for the Kubuntu+Nvidia issue we all know how hostile Nvidia is with Linux; I'm not sure we can blame the distro for that.
