Thank you. I've got all the hardware for a server and will be building one to hold a copy of my entire CD collection (some MP3's as well), which I want to access from a web app I built. I'm a noob on the hardware side though, so this'll go onto my playlist for when I'm ready to take on that side of things. I was one of those people that was terrified of Linux. The learning curve seemed so steep years back.
Sir thank you for always making useful guides, I am surprised just how many times I've wanted to do something that I thought might be niche and yet you happen to have a guide on it.
Gotta say I like these Beelink mini PCs. Not the fastest, but unless you are a hardcore gamer, they definitely do the business with either Windows 11 or Linux.
Home servers usually have 4 or more intel NICs, more storage and a HYPERVISOR. Usually Proxmox Virtual Environment. Ubuntu is a very small portion of the entire picture after all.
While I could build my home lab servers at home with a config that is somewhat similar to what I'd build at work ( and I've been building such systems for nearly 20 years), it's not needed at home; Most newb's don't need more than a single NIC, especially starting out. Most people don't need HA failover, don't have their systems using iSCSI or NFS for storage, etc.. Two NICs is actually a good starting point, with 16 G ram, and perhaps a TB or two of storage.. Two 2.5G NICs are more than sufficient for 99% of use cases; especially on a N100, N200, or N300 series..
I think more people should look at Dockge instead of using Portainer, I like it best because all the docker compose files are in a folder of their own under a master folder. Also use a appdata folder. Which means just two master folders is all you need to back up.
0:04 especially if you live in Turkey and Turkey restricted roblox. But, I'm living on the United States of America. So, luckily, I still play roblox without any problems. Also I have a Windows 7 and Server 2022 same time. So, mine is no problem 👍
I've been looking at some Beelink mini pc's, since Amazon has some great deals, from $120 - $130 off on SER5/6 and a GTR6 at 30% off, bringing it down to about $450. Although I'm looking at them for emulation gaming not a server, I'm amazed at what can be done now-a-days with such a tiny PC.
Spouse was watching after I got done, and then when I went to log in, and typed Britec, she asked, who is Britec ? Is this one of your nicknames that I don't know about ? So much for following directions..🙃

01:58 I don't know about anyone else, but what *_I'm_* thinking is, _"This is going to be BREEZE because I have Brian to show me the way!"_ 🤗
Cheers Mike

Plenty of options out there, choose your poison and go with it.

You can use any mini pc
I can't image for the life of me what I'd use a home sever for. Interesting video though.
Thanks for watching
Thanks!
Welcome!
Thank you 🙏
You're welcome
What about using this for a dicom server. We are testing a virtual symbology nas that uses docker. Can this be a raid nas that runs this internet host
I use an old desktop with an i3 6100 and 16gb ram running ubuntu and casa os
That will work

So you followed it word for word 😂
Will this work with a regular Ubuntu install.
Yes, only ubuntu desktop has more overhead. (read: less free memory on the same hardware.)
Anyone: My data is secure on the cloud Me: so your data is on someone else's computer
This will be on your own system
@@Britec09 I understand its use, my comment was for humor
@@lawsonic I know
Nice video, sometimes you gotta bust out the old arrows in the thumbnail ⬆↗➡↘⬇↙⬅↖⬆
