I'm on their free tier. If you don't have a domain you need to get one, but CloudFlare does offer domain registration basically at-cost.Because I'm on free, I can't break down my analytics like a paid account can. i can say though that for the past 30 days my account has generated 886k requests and 47.56GB of bandwidth. I can't tell you how much of that is nextcloud and how much is other stuff, like audiobookshelf, but hopefully this helps answer you.
100% this. I have one running in a lxc, and I expose it to the world through a CloudFlare tunnel so I needn't worry about dyndns or people probing my public IP.
I'll have to give it a spin. My biggest concern is for one of my VMs that occasionally moves, it has 'disk' for both an efi and a tpm.In any case, I've read enough in this thread that I'm going to see for myself. :)Thanks for the feedback!
TIL there's a KVM backend for VirtualBox. Thank you. Does everything "get saved" in VirtualBox format?I'm using libvirt on my workstation and Proxmox on my servers, it's effort but possible to transfer the VMs back and forth when I need to, not sure if I could do that if I switched.
Yeah, kinda making my point for me. They're literally murdering people in international waters, you think they can't harass shipping that attempts to bypass them?
For basic hosting of stuff+storage management, TrueNAS has a highly polished product that lets you install docker containers with ease.
They have a curated collection that includes every piece of software you mentioned, plus the ability to install dockerhub images as 'custom' images.
Originally I started with a single Pentium 4 with 4x1.5TB disks, and it's grown over time. Now at home I have 2 TrueNAS machines giving me 80TB of storage, and 3 HP elitedesk Minis running proxmox for general VMs.I also have a managed switch, which lets me pipe the raw Internet into it, and deliver it to the proxmox hosts so I can run a virtual router with high-availability.
OpenZFS, which TrueNAS uses as its primary storage filesystem, has recently gained the ability to increase existing disk arrays by adding additional disks (as opposed to replacing all disks with larger ones) and this makes it even more flexible for future growth.
I will say though, that if the machine is dated and you load up 'all the things' in it, you might not be impressed by performance, so be sure to manage your expectations.
I also suggest that you consider making yourself a roadmap, so that you can plan out what hardware you'll need to implement the 'next big thing'
Also - the steamlink you mentioned - I'm not sure what you're chasing there exactly, but if your steam rig is already in your home, the only thing you can do to improve latency is provide Ethernet to both the streaming sender and receiver.
When the 'last mile' is copper, the ISPs almost always use xDSL for the data delivery.The extra equipment increases latency, decreases reliability, and often precludes high upload speeds.I'm on true full fibre, and I get 500/500mbps, with the option of going to 2.5Gbps. A friend of mine on the same ISP who is limited to 'fibre to the neighborhood' maxes out at 300mbps down, 90 up.
I've never rolled one myself, and never provided someone else with the means to do so. Thankfully I don't break laws by simply observing, and since I don't assist, comfort, or provide shelter to the perpetrators - nor impede any investigation of them - I can't be held liable for their actions.
