Networking Gear Recommendations? (starting from scratch)

Hi, I hope its appropriate to ask this here, considering this is the most active community closest to this topic (Networking). I am moving places shortly and will need to start from scratch will all networking equipment. Including router and wifi-extenders. Am wondering what the general consencus is around networking gear, what...

zorflieg,

Ubiquiti is good. You just have to learn how it works. But that’s like any software defined network. There are times when they will give you a little too much control expecting you know the consequences of your actions and you send the wrong config and lock yourself out. They do make mistakes in their firmware but nowhere near as much as inexperienced techs make a mistake and blame the equipment.

zorflieg,

Both dog and it’s tail are stationary, space time moves around it.

Have you ever bough an external hardrive only to take the disk out of it?

Hiya, so am looking to buy more storage and while browsing am seeing some external harddisks, such as Western Digital My Book and Seagate Expansion Desktop for cheaper than the internal harddisks themselves. Have seen this one video from KTZ Systems where he bought up multiple of these external ones just to open them up and use...

zorflieg,

I think I’d buy 2nd hand quality server drivers before I’d shuck.

zorflieg,

I only just noticed people calling her Joanne because she identifies as JK. Nice one.

I use idrive e2. When I did the math it’s yearly up front cost works out what deep archive is without an egress fee and it’s quicker. In the fine print there is a fair use policy on downloads but I think it’s 5x the storage amount.

Deep archive storage alone without puts is $24 TB year. idrive is $15 first year $30 subsequent. But it behaves more like s3 standard instant retrieval which is much more expensive.

Small company but have been around a long time now.

zorflieg,

You’re telling me other Tumblr users are on here?

zorflieg,

That’s a choice though. Have you thought about biodegradable plastic or some other composite material? Oh not “metal framework” sorry, carry on.

Increase your Linux Server Internet Speed with TCP BBR Congestion-Control (www.cyberciti.biz)

I recently found this on Reddit while looking into why jellyfin is effected so much by latency. I found that this worked and thought I would share it because it is generally applicable, takes five minutes to setup, and helps a lot with bandwidth on higher latency connections. I admit I am not sure of the technical stuff behind...

zorflieg,

This is the Internet. No witch trial just witch burning.

zorflieg,

I see reckon it shows there are L’1 of us but I dunno I could be reading this upside down. I’ll get back to you.

zorflieg,

I’ve had multiple $5 Vultr VPS’s for about 5 years for simple purposes and they’ve been reliable and performed well.

zorflieg,

I cheat on Lemmy with Tumblr but Reddit is the ex I shook.

zorflieg,

Just one tech’s opinion but I’ve worked in storage for almost 20years. WD Ultrastar (formerly Hitachi) has the most consistent reliability historically. The current series of WD Gold’s are Ultrastar’s with a different sticker and often cheaper than the Ultrastar stickered version.

They are a little more expensive than their competition but worth it.

2nd Exos, 3rd everything else.

I can’t remember the last time I had one of my Ultrastar arrays having a failure. If my clients need to choose a cheaper drive on price I have tried Ironwolfs and have replaced a bunch of 10tb Ironwolfs a few 12’s.

In the consumer space the Backblaze drive failure releases are good to pay attention to.

Performance wise all SoHo CMR drives are pretty similar in the 7200rpm models.

zorflieg,

Fastmail.com is excellent if you are considering Protonmail. Excellent performance, has a drive function and it sits somewhere between Google and proton in the privacy department.

zorflieg,

Could it be your cool is very low? So a percentage of very little is still very little?

zorflieg,

Hosted MSP360 is set and forget. Wasabi is great but for archive iDrive s3 is noticably cheaper.

If you want data sovereignty a Synology NAS running Active Backup for M365 is really good for a free/included app.

zorflieg,

Fastest way to kill your passion is to make it your paycheck, I say to those people.

zorflieg,

A long time ago Microsoft and some teaching sources used .local in example documentation for local domains and it stuck. Like contoso.com was Microsoft’s example company. I was taught to use .local decades ago and it took a very long time to unlearn it.

zorflieg,

I've been using Vultr for years. All good thus far.

zorflieg,

Old Dell optiplexes of an 5th gen or higher currently. Some Mac minis i7 2014+, dual core not worth the performance per watt.

zorflieg,

VMware esxi 7, win10 sandbox. Debian hosts for docker. I also run some a couple of i7 Mac mini’s. I try to host on a balance of cheap, power efficient devices that I have spares of in case they blow up because I hate dealing with hardware compatibility issues. Since I decided this and shelved spares I haven’t had any failure’s.
