  • Yeah! Obviously not for everyone - but i do think people should re-consider their initial judgments. Just like I recently decided to switch to Fastmail away from Proton. I did some research around Fastmail, and to me, their missions and values won me over. For example, they help develop open standards such as jmap over imap. They own all of their own hardware - and encrypt all data at rest. Might not suit everyone, but defo suits me well and it’s been a very nice experience so far.














  • Alright yeah I see what you mean. The i7-6700K was just a leftover cpu I had from a prvious computer build, and it has worked wonders uptil now as it has Quick Sync. But yeah, I was kinda hoping there would be an “easy” solution for connecting a MINI PC to some type of enclosed case for the HDDs with a SATA connection between the two. I’ll probably end up with a different use case for the minipc in the end. Thanks for your input!


  • Right, so sorry if I was a bit unclear about this. The rack is just something i’d like in the forseeable future. I like the idea of having a small homelab.

    My usecase is media streaming. Unraid because its more simple and I want to support the good work they do there.

    Am not planning on using the big machine in the future, this is just what I was able to scramble up as a student from second hand shops and friends.

    I assume you mean the AMD CPU when you mention that its an odd choice? Well, im getting it for free, so thats why :)
