This was the best explanation for a home lab I've heard. I'm super new to the IT world! And most people just assume you understand their jargon. Thanks for simplifying. - the guy who somehow has an IT job with 0 experience

I would enjoy seeing a more hands on building a home lab from scratch series. For example if you would build your home lab up to where you are now from scratch with hands on tutorial videos with hardware that you currently use. Starting with how to plan and segment your network and then setting up VLANs configuring the different servers that you have such as Proxmox, truenas , Synology , ect . I know you have bits and pieces of all these different videos but it would be nice to see a complete series with more hands-on configuration. Thanks Jay.

FINNNALLLY a clear entrance for a noob. I feel like so many people get caught up in the details that they forget or assume that going from not knowing to knowing is straightforward. Sometimes you can't even ask the right questions because you don't know what you should be thinking about in the first place!

Awesome introductory video. I'm HYPED for the rest of the series. I'd personally love to hear more from you about: 1. Recommended tools/solutions to common components that make up your home lab 2. The design process, or your thought process behind deciding on how to connect/design the components of a solution that you're creating 3. The security considerations you keep in mind when you start a project Thanks for sharing your wealth of knowledge!

Jay, this may be a little long-winded but, hey, you asked for feedback. I think an interesting question is which hypervisor to use. I know you prefer Proxmox and Tom Lawrence prefers XCP-ng. Since I started watching Tom first (I think I learned about you from him), I ran XCP-ng for most of a year. I like the ability there to do incremental backups of VMs. But I've just switched to Proxmox after continuing frustration with Xen Orchestra. First, I had much difficulty downloading it in the first place (now many months ago). However, the free version doesn't do VM backups at all. So I built it from sources, another hassle. With the "from sources" version, there is no notice of updates. So I ran both, the "from sources" version for backups and the free version as an easy way to check on updates. I also lost a port on my server and a port on my switch because of the strong recommendation of a separate network for the management interface. Finally, Xen Orchestra is unable on the GUI to establish NAS storage on QNAP NAS's. They're working on it, but it's not a high priority. It's only a minor annoyance though as other protocols are available. Anyway, I thought I'd offer my two cents on the comparison I also have a question based on future plans that you might consider addressing. I currently have three Proxmox "servers" and use HA. But they're not really servers: an old Dell laptop, a Protectli box with an Intel i3, and a Dell 3060 with an Intel i8500T. My plan is to add a "real" server at some point in the future and justify the cost by using it as my main computer and not replacing my very old Windows computer. I'd like to run Windows on it and pass through the video and audio ports and USB for keyboard and mouse to the Windows VM. From my beginning research, it does'nt look easy. That idea could be of interest to multiple viewers. So you might consider showing us how to do it on one of your servers using Proxmox.

What i am missing in this video and all alikes is safety. While genuine servers don't combust in regular fashion, these handcrafted might and a fan blowing 20L/s of air will happily feed up flames. Personally i do have fire extinguishers nearby my locations, however this needs to be automated because many of homelabbers are using VPN to be with their machines while physically being outta town. Sure that your setup (having nice metal rack with glass doors) is more sustainable to isolating burning inferno from your basement, especially considering my toys are running in wooden cabinet (due to need minimum Wife Acceptence Factor level ;p), however it's still a serious risk which no one addressed so far. Smoke sensor should be obligatory in such builds if not some automated power-cutoff system with at least air latches that stops fresh air from feeding flames. And i seriously think that this topic deserves separate episode. As for hardware - there are niche device types which are getting more and more affordable, while delivering decent amount of homelabitty to your home labs :) i am talking about terminals, like HP t610 which runs my proxmox lxc containters. It's thin, light on power, somewhat expandable (usb3, SATA connector, ddr3 slots) and personally i found them somewhat between raspberry pis and laptop from scrapyard. Another thing worth mentioning is a router. Personally i rely on Mikrotik, while messing around OpenWRT in different subnet. However i wanted to have reliable network core, so i began to master MT.

I'm using macbook pro a1286 and a1278 laptops as a home servers, works pretty well for my needs, both running proxmox. Both has hard drive adapters instead of CD drive and 16GB of ram. I'm going to add a Thunderbolt 1Gbit NIC to a1286 to run pfSense or OPNsense on it. Also I'm going to build third server for NAS but this time I'm going to use a special motherboard with mobile i7 2630qm for it. All my servers are very power effective, small and best of all: very quiet. If somebody wants, to try, all you need is to find laptops with broken screens, they are very cheap. Only disadvantage is there is no many ports, only 2 slots for ram and of course: no PCI slots

Thanks for the video! One small addition: You highlight the CPU's TDP on the Intel site when talking about power consumption. The TDP in and of itself is only an indicator of the maximum(!) amount of power the CPU can pull. For non-data center use the idle power consumption is the relevant piece. And this only has a very loose relationship to the TDP (less with newer CPUs). I run an old Intel Xeon E5 2670 (Sandy Bridge) with a TDP of 115 W, but the server idles at 50 W and that includes a lot of memory and a storage backplane. So unfortunately, it is not a trivial topic. Again, thanks for your videos!

I am living in a small apartment and only have six plugs in the whole apartment. This places a strict limit on the total number of electrics I can have including smart devices and home entertainment as well. I also am required to have a floor-standing air conditioner due to safety regulations. Balancing power usage and not blowing breakers requires detailed knowledge of what in use and where. I can't for example run my AC unit and my hairdryer as they are on the same circuit and trip the breaker. So, I need a setup that sips power. I will never be able to run twenty servers in a rack. But I look at some of the entry-level Epyc servers and realize I am getting a significant power boost that would allow me to run one server to replace up to eight or nine older power-hungry servers. the HPW Microserver Gen 10Plus has enormous potential for a small to medium-sized lab implementation. While these are not low-cost purchases, they off significantly advanced in computer power per watt in space and electrical contained environment. But in return you need a realistic budget of a couple of thousand dollars to get a functional setup.

You said Registered RAM and I think you meant to say ECC RAM (Error Correcting). Most servers require ECC RAM but some also require/can use RDIMMs (Registered or Buffered), UDIMMs (Unbuffered), FBDIMMs (Fully Buffered), LRDIMMs (Load Reduced, aka, Low Power Registered). FBDIMMs and UDIMMs are now less common in server hardware the last 10 years. There are low end server systems that can use less expensive Desktop RAM. Non-server hardware (desktop, mini PC, etc.), workstation hardware can sometimes use ECC RAM but usually require "Desktop" RAM instead. Desktop RAM can also come in Registered, Buffered, and Low Power variants as well. Though, they sometimes lack the hardware fault detection features of ECC RAM and always lack the Error Correcting features of ECC RAM.

Hi, what backup solution are you using for your systems? I have several physical hosts that i want to backup over network plus some VMs on a Proxmox node and it would be interesting to know which software you think is most reliable. Thanks!

Is love to see a series of network basics and home network setup on a 4 - 6 stack of raspberry pi's. I'm a developer with an a+ cert, but the network+ kicked me in the face (repeatedly). That was the years ago and I know that there is a ton I have forgotten. So if you had a series of "the top 15 services to get a home lab started using a 4 - stack of raspberry pi's" I would be ALL over that.

I've literally just ordered a new desktop PC for my homelab/webserver/plex/Nextcloud server, then your video pops up! A Ryzen 5 1600 and a spare GT1030, total power of around 200w including drives and mobo. 65w CPU 40w GPU (literally just for a POP! OS desktop) Mobo 30w 2x 500GB SSD - negligible 2x 4TB mechanicals. To be honest, I have no idea how much power mechanical drives actually use 500GB NVMe - Negligible So it should be nice and cool, especially the CPU as I'm using my spare Ryzen 7 2700X wraith cooler. It cooled my desktop that could run at well over 150w. So 65w should be no problem. Nobody ever said you must use rack servers, especially at home. The noise is incredible from these things. That said, I have a rack-mount 24 port gigabit switch minus 2x 4cm fans 😆 Raijintek Metis Plus ITX Gaming Case - in Green Aero Cool Integrator 400W 80+ PSU ASRock Fatal1ty B450 Gaming-ITX/ac AMD Motherboard AMD Ryzen 5 1600 Zen+ CPU Spare parts: 16GB DDR4 3200mhz (YES I know spare 16GB of RAM) drives mentioned above Spare GPU Spare Apple Keyboard, spare wireless mouse, spare 48" 4k TV. This kept the build price down, but the 4TB drives are quite old and probably not to far way from failure. But I have backups on my main desktop, so I'll RAID 0 them and sod the risks. The SSD's are also well used, but well within their writes and are error free. Total spend last week was £300 I can't wait for it all to arrive and start playing.
