Alright yeah I see what you mean. The i7-6700K was just a leftover cpu I had from a prvious computer build, and it has worked wonders uptil now as it has Quick Sync. But yeah, I was kinda hoping there would be an “easy” solution for connecting a MINI PC to some type of enclosed case for the HDDs with a SATA connection between the two. I’ll probably end up with a different use case for the minipc in the end. Thanks for your input!

Right, so sorry if I was a bit unclear about this. The rack is just something i’d like in the forseeable future. I like the idea of having a small homelab.

My usecase is media streaming. Unraid because its more simple and I want to support the good work they do there.

Am not planning on using the big machine in the future, this is just what I was able to scramble up as a student from second hand shops and friends.

I assume you mean the AMD CPU when you mention that its an odd choice? Well, im getting it for free, so thats why :)

Roger that haha

APKmirror is alright, otherwise you can download RacoonAPK that connects to o Playstore to extracts any APK you want.

Got the aeropress about a month ago and have not used anything since. Freaking love the results and how easy going it is! Next on the list is a new grinder, but unsure to go handgrinder or electrical.

Been using local coffee, labelled as French Roasted Coffee, it’s pretty nice.

Have not tried iron man before, sounds interesting though! Bit I think a group iron man would be alot more fun than solo.

Definitely a good point, and thanks for the offer! Might just pick you up on that later down the line 😊

Commenting as I am curious about this too!

Thanks for your answer and offer, and glad you also found love for the mountains! ⛰ I’ll give membership a go, as you say it’s not that expensive.

Thanks for your answer! I should indeed try playing it at a different pace than what I’ve done before and maybe try it as a second monitor game. I’ll give it another solid try for sure, if I don’t get into it I’m not too bummed about it, I still enjoy watching YT videos of others playing it.

Woah I wish I had the same knowledge you do about networking haha! Taking notes here that’s for sure, thanks for the input!

Normally I wouldn’t mind doing this too. But my server is fairly large back box and the Internet comes into the house in a really awkward spot. I might however buy into the new Fractal Mood case, as those seem super slick for leaving servers anywhere in the house.

I live in Norway, thanks for the tips though!

Thanks for the write up! 🙌

I will likely go for either option 1 or 3. I need to reevaluate wether cable is possible or not. If not then I’ll go with a mesh. Only “problem” with mesh is that I really wanted to buy into the unifi ecosystem, but their mesh stuff is above my budget. Bit maybe I could just get the unifi express and pair that with another branded mesh system? The place is only 85 square metres, but on two floors. My office is ofcourse furthest away from where the modem comes into the house. Anyway, I will need to evaluate again when I’m there to see if it’s possible or not to run cables. Thanks again for detailed response 💛

You’re probably right, I need to look again at running cables. But it is on separate floors too. Have not moved in yet, so will have to evaluate again when I move in. Thanks for the tips.

A set of four what? I’m sorry, not quite following.

Didn’t know this was an option even, will defo look into this asap and evaluate wether this fits my use case or not, thanks!

Norway. It works, but I dont have a networking card anyways and much prefer having things wired if possible.

Hey that’s all good dude, don’t knock yourself down for it. I also used to ask questions before looking around as it felt easier at the time. Fortunately Bazzite actually has some really nice and well documented pages, not always super intuitive to find them, but they are there. Feel free to ask about more if u have further questions 😊
