Same here! I check Amazon last after exhausting other options first. Also I find that most items on Amazon can be bought on Chinese apps/sites (ali express, temu, shein etc), they’re literally the exact same, just cost 10 times more lol. Oh, and fuck the CCP.

Many good suggestions on here. I have Rockstor running on mine. When I built my NAS, it was the only OS that used BTRFS for the FS (and I really like BTRFS) so I went with it.

Edit: also I have it running in Proxmox as a VM.

How ironic, this is a perfect example of the kind of thing the article is describing lol

That’s a bunch of words that have no meaning whatsoever. It’s like saying European colonialism captured 99% of the European Union lol.

You also clearly have no idea what pan-arabism is.

Work on my homelab, I enjoy it :)

This. Generally speaking, If we don’t support small businesses, large corporations win and we all lose.

I’ve had intermittent issues with T-Mobile on hotspot too. I’m not sure how helpful this will be but here’s my 2 cents. The only params I played with that seemed to help were the :

1- MTU (if I remember correctly, I had to dial it down to 1300)

2- and using IPv6 instead of v4.

This will depend on the APN you’re using for T-Mobile. I believe they have a legacy one that only uses IPv4 whereas their new one supports IPv6 only (I wasn’t able to find clear info about this but this is my guess). In any case, I have my wireguard server setup to support and use both IP versions and when v4 doesn’t work for me, switching to v6 fixes the issue for a while. At some point I even suspected they were heavily throttling wireguard traffic, which may be the case but who knows.

I hope this helps, good luck!

STOP!

Uncommon command. If he’s walking or running, stop means stop and stay put.

Edit: formatting, as per OP’s request.

Good job and thanks for sharing.

Pretty similar. Not sure what OMV uses as a FS but Rockstor natively uses btrfs (a FS I used for years and trust) so it was a no brainer for me. Everything else works as expected, nfs, smb, snapshots, backups, etc. The only add on I decided to use on top of Rockstor itself is for Duplicati for B2 backups. I hear a lot of good things about FreeNas too.

It’s really not complicated. Look up Truenas or Rockstor. Both are solid NAS OSs. I’ve been running Rockstor for about a year now (partly because I’m a huge fan of btrfs) and I’m pretty happy with it. Make sure to keep an offline backup on an external drive just in case you mess something up. I manually plug in a drive about once a month for that. I think DIY is more fun anyway ;) and I’m sure the community will help with questions you can’t find answers to online. Good luck!

Agreed. Especially when reliable storage only costs $4-$6/tb these days. (Where I live that won’t buy you a freaking cup of coffee lol). I only back up to the cloud and pay for my important data anyway, I have terabytes of data that I don’t mind losing and therefore don’t bother backing up to the cloud.
