as usual I will kick us off

 

I'll just start with my NUC for now lol.

 

I currently use it as my general purpose server, using Docker. I also host my own git projects on here via gitea because having my projects on my machine makes sense to me.

 

OS: Ubuntu Server 18.04 x86_64

Case: Standard low profile NUC

CPU: Intel i5 8259U

Motherboard: Standard NUC mobo

Memory: 2x8GB Corsair laptop RAM DDR4 2400

OS SSD: WD Black 500GB NVMe M.2 pcie3 x4

 

The NUC is to the left of the blue router. lol.

 

[ENTERPRISE]

My server is an Intel SKULL CANYON NUC, specifically this : https://www.pcworld.com/article/3074...nceptions.html

 

OS: Windows 10 X64

Case: NUC

CPU: i7-6770HQ

Motherboard: Intel Stock

Memory: 16GB Corsair Vengeance

PSU: Nuc Stock

OS SSD: 256 WD Blue NVME

 

User it as my Plex server as well as my home server for file access etc, with it being so small with low power consumption it is great for 24/7 up time and should I have remote issues to my file server, this acts as another remote gateway to access files locally on my network ! As you can see from the Pic, I created a painted MDF Enclosure for it to sit in along with a Blu-ray player to the top as I also use this as a multimedia center at times, but not as often as I should really. Also in the lower section is my 1TB 2.5" HDD that allows for image backups for the server and anything else I deem necessary. Its a great all in one box.

Oh nice. You are lucky to have someone with a great 1:1 broadband. I wish I had that...I do not even have a fraction of that living in the sticks. Oh and I very much recognize that Liva mini PC

OS SSD : Microcenter 120GB

Storage Mediums(s): 6x2TB Hitachi 2TB in RAID6 (HP P400 SAS controller) + Standalone Seagate st4000dm000 4TB

 

 

 

It serves a NAS. The case was gutted since all the plastics in the case were garbage and cracking.

Wheels added for better mobility, HDD's are mounted using just standard steel brackets from a hardware store.

 

When it comes to interesting stuff. This machine does not have any GPU, integrated or external.

Motherboard Bios has been modded so the machine posts and boots the OS without any GPU present.

1986 IBM VGA ROM inserted into the bios. POST only requires any VGA rom present, no actual GPU is needed to pass the POST procedure.

Runs 24/7/365 for plex (some nas) and folding@home on the rx580.

 

 

 

[pio]

So the bottom 4u system is my NAS, currently with a 64TB "Storage Space" array, need to add 5 more drives to it soon though.  Next up 4u chassis is for VM's, various purposes.  Testing, serving purposes, etc, etc.  1u system above that is my OPNSense router (not built yet, currently in a beige box).  Shelf with KVM switch, modem, and UPS's for the rack.  Next shelf is SUPPOSED to be for a home theater receiver (eventually planned).  Shelf above that, just peeking above the top is my wifi AP's.

 

OS:  Various, but mostly Win10 LTSC

Case:  PLink 4u chassis'

CPU:  Xeons (dual 6 core Haswells in NAS / dual 16 core + HT in the VM)

Motherboard:  Supermicro LGA 2011 dual socket boards

Memory:  Currently 8GB in the NAS / 88GB in the VM, but intend on expanding soon

PSU:  Coolermaster 750w units

OS SSD (it SHOULD be an SSD lmao):  120GB Crucial BX500's

 

Storage Mediums(s):  WD 14TB x5 / Toshiba 3TB x2 / 2TB NVME

Server Manufacturer (Ex: Dell, HP, You?):  Self made

 

some pix would be nice lawl
(Of course they would be)

Whole system assembled

 

NAS 4u system:

 

VM 4u system:

 

Internal pictures were taken mid build, I promise there's 750w Coolermaster PSU's in there lol.  I think these pictures might be missing the scratch drives I put into the VM box too, but whatever.  I'm not about to cut my hands up tearing them apart anytime soon unless I have to though.  Sorry.   I thought I shared these here already, guess not.  Must've been a different forum.  *shrugs

[ENTERPRISE]

The only "Server" I have is my Plex server (In sig) which doubles up as my virtualization station and anything else I need. I already have 2x NAS boxes so no need for a larger "One machine for all" just yet.

[nova4005]

New server I am getting ready to collocate in Atlanta. Just waiting on the firewall and SSD’s.

 

Dell r620

2 x E5-2670v2

128GB 1866mhz memory

Proxmox VE

 

[ENTERPRISE]

My server right now is the Plex server in my signature. Doubles up as my remote server for other systems.

 

At somepoint want to build a FreeNAS server but right now my dedicated server is just fine.
