  • I run my Truenas Scale with 5 mirror vdevs. This is sort of like raid 10 (I don’t need the differences explained to me). This means that I get 50% of the raw storage as usable but, it means that to upgrade space, I only need to upgrade two drives at a time. It also means that replacing a failed drive is fast, much faster than replacing a drive from a raidz* vdev. As you move to Truenas, this is something to consider. Given that you’re going to have 4 drives total, I don’t think you’d be wasting any additional space as you shouldn’t consider raidz safe (same problem as raid 5, high risk of second drive failure during rebuild) which leaves you at raidz2.




  • My DS1821+ has been rock solid but so has my Truenas Scale server and I ask a whole lot more of the latter. The “problem” with synology is that you’re paying a lot for the hardware that you get. Whether that premium is worth it is a personal decision. For the price, I would have liked to see a 10gb port and more than 4gb of ram. So, the question is how much do you value the synology interface and ease of use?







  • This is my ingressroute for lemmy:

    It seems to work correctly. Given that you’re not using kubernetes, you’ll need to do some translation work.


  • There are multiple ways to evaluate usage. I’ll go with what I would guess is your desired measurement, things that I use intentionally (as opposed to things like dns, which just happen incidentally to other things or automation based things which are continuously running but not necessarily interacted with):

    1. Mastodon
    2. An app I’ve written to collect personal data
    3. Jellyfin
    4. Lemmy
    5. Bitwarden (I pay to self-host as opposed to vaultwarden as the latter probably won’t have a security audit)
    6. Freshrss
    7. Linkding
    8. Gitea
    9. Archivebox
    10. Mailcow
