Personally will be trying to transform my server which is currently in a fractal R5 case, into a small-ish Homelab rack, combined with all my network equipment. Will require complete relocation of all network equipment in the house as well as cables so it will be a bit of a project. Also on the lookout for a good quality rack so let me know if you have any recs. Still unsure if u want to do full width rack or mini. Part of me really want the UDM Pro from Unifi…
What are your goals and thing you want to accomplish during 2025?
My setup was a central NAS hosting an NFS server then each Pi mounted PVs from the NFS CSI driver over the network and I only used local storage to boot the OS.
That is almost exactly what I have planned as well. Glad to hear it worked out for you
Services the only supported sqlite databases struggled (Jellyfin). Anything that worked with postgresql worked like a charm. So trick on the sqlite ones is a local PV then do a task to copy to NFS periodically.
