Hardware

Compute:

• 1 Intel NUC
  • Dual-Core i3-8109U Up to 3.6GHz - 16GB DDR4 - 1 TB SSD
  • It’s been running basically non-stop since 2019 with no issues
  • It runs all the services just fine
• 1 RapsberryPi 5

Storage:

• Synology DS418play NAS Disk Station, 4-bay, 2GB DDR3L
  • 3 x Seagate IronWolf 4TB

Network. It’s all based on Mikrotik:

• Great hardware
• Great software (router OS)
• You learn a lot of networking using their products instead of Unifi

Cabinet:

• V7 RMWC9UV450-1N
• CyberPower CPS1215RMS Surge Protector

Notes

• I used Unifi for the longest time. Mikrotik is a bit harder to use but totally worth it
