I'm working on 3D printing the Kubic case, but would like some guidance on hardware to buy for it.

I currently have an old laptop running some Docker containers, including the .arr stack and Plex, plus Immich for photo backups, and a few other odds and ends. Don't want to break the bank, but I'm looking for something to at least handle transcoding video for Plex.

Needs:

• ITX Motherboard
• Discreet GPU (Max 210mm long, 2 slots thick (max 41mm))
• SFX Power Supply
• 140mm chassis fan (Max 30mm thick)

Thanks in advance!

Hello fellow self-hosters,

I'm fairly new to hosting my own services and have been learning as I go, but have run into an issue and am not sure where to look for answers. Hoping you all can help a confused soul out.

Up until now, I've been running the .arr services (Sonarr, Radarr, Overseerr, etc.) on my Windows machine with minimal issue, but I've been working on setting up a separate Debian machine to get it off my main PC.

I'm following this guide to get everything setup, and at this point I have all my services setup and running, but I can't seem to get Radarr and Sonarr to work correctly. My indexers work, Radarr will grab the wanted file and Deluge will download it, but when the download finishes it just stays in limbo; Radarr is unable to import it into the library due to invalid permissions (It doesn't have Write permissions).

I've done sudo chown -R $USER:$USER /path/to/ROOT/directory and sudo chown -R $USER:$USER /path/to/HDDSTORAGE/directory as the guide instructs under 'Folder Structure' (of course replacing the paths with my actual paths), but to no avail.

Where I think the problem is is my actual Media Library. All the services are running on their own laptop, but my 10TB HDD is still in my main Windows PC. Until I build a new rig specifically for the server, I can't put the HDD into the laptop. In Windows, the TV and Movie folders are network shared and I have them mounted on my server in the respective locations where Radarr and Sonarr should be looking. At this point, the .arr services can definitely read the mounted directories, but can't make new ones for new shows and movies.

Anyone have any solutions for this issue? You'd think it would just bridge over the entire hole, don't know why it's doing this. We're at 195mm height here and I'd rather not run a support the entire height of the model just for this little nub.

Hello fellow printers!

I've decided to be ambitious and upgrade my printer's hotend. I followed this guide to convert my printer to a direct drive. I bought this NEMA14 motor per the instructions, but the instructions didn't specify how to wire it up to the stock Neptune 2S board. I just swapped it where the old extruder was and got everything assembled.

Started trying to tune it (Using Klipper), and things just got weird. I read that the motors can heat up while active, but this motor is getting HOT! Hot enough that it can melt PLA that's pressed up to the motor's body. Only takes a few minutes to get there, definitely can't print for long with it.

What are my next troubleshooting steps? I definitely don't want to burn my house down and will go back to my original bowden setup if needed, but I'd love to be direct drive.

Edit: Of course after I post this I finally find what's wrong. Need to tune VREF as well. I've ordered some ceramic screwdrivers to prevent accidentally frying my board and will be learning something new this weekend! Leaving this question here in case someone else needs the answer.

Updated to the latest update and the app crashes immediately. Can't get to any settings, no errors are thrown. I've had to downgrade to v23.08.31.

Anyone else having problems? ~~I can post my device info if someone could tell me how to get that.~~

Edit: Device info added. Also, I do have an Ultra subscription but can't restore the purchase. That's probably since I downloaded the earlier version from APKPure.

Took a couple failed prints to figure out something was wrong. Pulled the filament and saw it was melted WAY too high! Thankfully I've got a pack of spares, so pretty simple to swap out.

Now I need to learn how to play it...
