I loved migrating to 3 nucs from a 2015 synology, so think you are 100% correct. (It allowed me to use TB networking for a 26Gbe ceph network)

I voted turnkey no regrets.

  1. i only use as a NAS / backup
  2. i run 90% of my VMs, containers etc on NUCs (I run one VM on the synology for proxmox backup server)
  3. i see the cost of the synology more about paying for their backup software than paying for the hardware

i own a couple of the cheap random brands like this

i think my last unmanaged 6 RJ45 port one with 2.5gb poe and 2 SFP+ 10G ports cot $90 (USD) in sept.

They are great value for money, so are the managed ones. I used it for a dedicates network for a ceph cluster (its sort of hidden in this shot on the rack shelf to the left of the ubiquiti POE switch https://gist.github.com/scyto/76e94832927a89d977ea989da157e9dc

This is unlikely to be a portainer issue and more a config issue with that server in npm. Bit hard for us to troubleshoot without seeing the real error behind this. What does a browser like edge tell you? What does this one say say if you click details?

Plex kernel is optimized with fixes specific to proxmox scenarios. For example it is currently impossible to do my setup https://gist.github.com/scyto/76e94832927a89d977ea989da157e9dc on Debian or Ubuntu without compiling your own kernel, which then would break ceph…. The proxmox team do a lot of due diligence on their kernel, patches etc. for your docker scenario consider using VMs as your docker hosts. Lightweight VMs don’t add a lot of overhead. Something like this https://gist.github.com/scyto/f4624361c4e8c3be2aad9b3f0073c7f9

Nice! Consider some set back adapters for your PDU, then you can make sure the PSUs don’t stick out. I used some in my slightly larger rack https://gist.github.com/scyto/76e94832927a89d977ea989da157e9dc I think they are useful to stop plugs getting snagged…

Agreed, I moved all mine from godaddy to cloudflare to save money. My email is with M365.

simple version:

  1. save your existing mail locally

  2. point the DNS record of your domain name at whatever new service you are buying (they should have instructions on that)

  3. import some / all / none of the mail you saved locally to the new service as you see fit

now your email will come and go from your new mail service
