Comrades, my homelab hasn't changed for over a year. I think it is “finished”.

That is a very stylish rack. Nice setup overall.

Edit: ouch, nice and pricey.

Needs a painting or a rug to really pull the room together.

CluckN@lemmy.world · 20 pts · 325d

A painting of a rug would be perfect

Ugurcan@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 324d (1 reply)

I would say your music could benefit a lot from a rug that diffuses some sound waves.

(Also a short stand for speakers)

Nice job on cables though!

pineapple@lemmy.ml · 1 pts · 324d

what's with all these speaker jokes?

Diplomjodler3@lemmy.world · 18 pts · 325d

Homelab being finished? That's heresy!

rehydrate5503@lemmy.world · 8 pts · 325d (4 replies)

Nice and clean. Amazing cable management.

I have to ask, why the giant 4u cases if you have such a minimal set up inside (no dgpu, 4 nvme drives, no hdds)? Did you get a smoking deal on them (I got one that looks to be the same for $50 😎), or just to future proof in case you want to throw 40 hdds in them some day?

snd@discuss.tchncs.de · 10 pts · 325d (3 replies)

It's nice not to have to fit everything into 1U or 2U enclosures, and yes, also a bit of future-proofing.

Cobrachicken@lemmy.world · 7 pts · 325d (1 reply)

Plus, space for big Noctuas to minimize noise? (That the way I went.)

snd@discuss.tchncs.de · 3 pts · 325d

Yes

rehydrate5503@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 325d

That’s fair. Must be nice and cool in there for all your components haha.

billwashere@lemmy.world · 8 pts · 324d

A homelab is never finished.

slazer2au@lemmy.world · 7 pts · 325d (1 reply)

Oh, it's never finished. There is always just one more thing.

Also specs?

snd@discuss.tchncs.de · 19 pts · 325d

Top (my desktop)

  • AMD Ryzen 5 8500G (no dGPU, because I do 90% of my work in the terminal)
  • 1 TB NVME
  • 32 GB DDR5
  • NixOS

Bottom (server)

  • AMD Ryzen 5 5600G
  • 8 GB RAM DDR4
  • in total 4 TB NVME
  • NixOS

(nvme and noctua only)

antifa_ceo@lemmy.ml · 7 pts · 325d

Finished...for now.

Poem_for_your_sprog@lemmy.world · 6 pts · 324d

Where subwoofers

theorangeninja@sopuli.xyz · 6 pts · 325d

The cable sleeve joining the cables from the keyboard and mouse and then going around the monitor stand looks soo smooth.

hperrin@lemmy.ca · 6 pts · 324d

That’s a legitimately beautiful setup.

jaykrown@lemmy.world · 6 pts · 325d (3 replies)

A second monitor is what's missing.

'if you go fuck a dude and he has 2 monitor's and a light up keyboard, just go home'

Crashumbc@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 323d (1 reply)

Luckily I have 3!

comrade19@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 322d

3 is amazing on one computer. I used to have that with the nvidia 3d vision glasses. Do you use surround gaming?

Damn I got down voted I was just joking :(

ayyy@sh.itjust.works · 4 pts · 324d

You forgot to plug everything in.

DarkSpectrum@lemmy.world · 4 pts · 324d

Add a plant

poVoq@slrpnk.net · 3 pts · 325d

Isn't that way too noisy right next to your work desk? Especially if you do audio recordings there?

HandMadeArtisanRobot@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 324d (1 reply)

Looks amazing! Those speakers would sound 10x better if they were closer to ear-level. It made a big difference in my setup.

Bakkoda@sh.itjust.works · 3 pts · 324d

Get some angled wedges!

rf_@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 324d (1 reply)

Out of curiosity to think about what to do with my life, what do you do for a living? Software engineer?

snd@discuss.tchncs.de · 6 pts · 324d

I am currently completing my bachelor's degree in computer science. Once this is finished, I will begin a master's program. I assume this information is not really helpful to you, sorry.

tofu@lemmy.nocturnal.garden · 3 pts · 325d

I guess you migrated to homeserver then.

What's in there?

InFerNo@lemmy.ml · 2 pts · 324d

Very nice and clean!

TrickDacy@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 325d

Those speakers look nice. If I weren't addicted to having 3 monitors I'd aim for something like this

chaoticnumber@lemmy.dbzer0.com · 2 pts · 324d

how many watts does it chug on average? Sweet setup.

crazyminner@lemmy.ml · 2 pts · 324d (2 replies)

Clearly you don't data hoard. Us Data hoarders are never finished.

lightnsfw@reddthat.com · 1 pts · 324d

I data hoard and my storage fits in one of those Rosewill chassis. They can fit a lot of drives.

May I ask. What is it you do on these systems, as in why do you need something like this?

besbin@lemmy.ml · 2 pts · 323d

Where did you get that table top for the rack? Is that a DIY?

tordenflesk@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 325d

Monitor/speaker-arms maybe?

barnaclebutt@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 325d (3 replies)

How loud is it?

JASN_DE@feddit.org · 3 pts · 324d

Considering the hardware listed in this thread: likely nearly inaudible.

snd@discuss.tchncs.de · 1 pts · 324d (1 reply)

Well, let's put it this way: I sleep in the same room :)

InFerNo@lemmy.ml · 1 pts · 324d

I take it you need whitenoise to sleep then

untorquer@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 323d

Missing anime posters or, alternatively, random and poorly painted landscape art.

maracuya@lemmy.ml · 1 pts · 324d

what desk is that, and would you recommend it?

pineapple@lemmy.ml · 1 pts · 324d

That is until you run out of space to store linux iso's.

coaxil@lemmy.zip · 1 pts · 324d (1 reply)

Get those speakers decoupled from the table and pointing at your ear holes!

Nalivai@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 324d

Those are called headphones
