Comrades, my homelab hasn't changed for over a year. I think it is “finished”.

That is a very stylish rack. Nice setup overall.
Edit: ouch, nice and pricey.
Oh, it’s never finished. There is always just one more thing.
Also specs?
Top (my desktop)
Bottom (server)
(nvme and noctua only)
I guess you migrated to homeserver then.
What’s in there?
Homelab being finished? That’s heresy!
The cable sleeve joining the cables from the keyboard and mouse and then going around the monitor stand looks soo smooth.
Nice and clean. Amazing cable management.
I have to ask, why the giant 4u cases if you have such a minimal set up inside (no dgpu, 4 nvme drives, no hdds)? Did you get a smoking deal on them (I got one that looks to be the same for $50 😎), or just to future proof in case you want to throw 40 hdds in them some day?
It’s nice not to have to fit everything into 1U or 2U enclosures, and yes, also a bit of future-proofing.
Plus, space for big Noctuas to minimize noise? (That the way I went.)
Yes
That’s fair. Must be nice and cool in there for all your components haha.
Needs a painting or a rug to really pull the room together.
A painting of a rug would be perfect
I would say your music could benefit a lot from a rug that diffuses some sound waves.
(Also a short stand for speakers)
Nice job on cables though!
what’s with all these speaker jokes?
Isn’t that way too noisy right next to your work desk? Especially if you do audio recordings there?
Monitor/speaker-arms maybe?
Finished…for now.
Those speakers look nice. If I weren’t addicted to having 3 monitors I’d aim for something like this
How loud is it?
Considering the hardware listed in this thread: likely nearly inaudible.
Well, let’s put it this way: I sleep in the same room :)
I take it you need whitenoise to sleep then
A second monitor is what’s missing.
‘if you go fuck a dude and he has 2 monitor’s and a light up keyboard, just go home’
Luckily I have 3!
3 is amazing on one computer. I used to have that with the nvidia 3d vision glasses. Do you use surround gaming?
Damn I got down voted I was just joking :(
Clearly you don’t data hoard. Us Data hoarders are never finished.
tbf if you set it up well, all you usually have to do is add more storage.
I data hoard and my storage fits in one of those Rosewill chassis. They can fit a lot of drives.
Where subwoofers
fair enough. mine is a single mini pc with loads of ram, because that’s perfectly fine for what i want to do.
server workloads for just a few users won’t demand too much hardware. if it’s good, it’s good, and your physical setup seems nice enough already.
Looks amazing! Those speakers would sound 10x better if they were closer to ear-level. It made a big difference in my setup.
Get some angled wedges!
Out of curiosity to think about what to do with my life, what do you do for a living? Software engineer?
I am currently completing my bachelor’s degree in computer science. Once this is finished, I will begin a master’s program. I assume this information is not really helpful to you, sorry.
Very nice and clean!
That’s a legitimately beautiful setup.
You forgot to plug everything in.
May I ask. What is it you do on these systems, as in why do you need something like this?
To securely, privately, rapidly download and store a variety of of Linux distributions. Almost all homelab is about downloading and storing Linux distributions.
what desk is that, and would you recommend it?
how many watts does it chug on average? Sweet setup.
A homelab is never finished.
It’s not complete until there is a cat napping on the keyboard.
That is until you run out of space to store linux iso’s.
Get those speakers decoupled from the table and pointing at your ear holes!
Those are called headphones
Add a plant
Where did you get that table top for the rack? Is that a DIY?
Missing anime posters or, alternatively, random and poorly painted landscape art.
