Nothing special just wanted to share, I’ve been working on it piece by piece for over a year now it started with a few intel nucs now it’s got five dell optiplex micros a raspberry pi and a qnap nas ts251 and a ts251+. I’ve been using it to host virtual machines and to run game servers .

      nah those are just to make it easier if I need someone to turn on one of my servers when I’m not home so they can easily find what I’m talking about.

        Could you use WOL for that?

          I could but it’s pretty useless as I would only be using it when I’m not home and my access is so limited to my servers as I can’t do port forwarding as I’m stuck on cgnat

            I use an OpenVPN/wireguard servers running on a Rpi3 behind the firewall, once inside the network WOL works pretty good.

    This is a clean setup, well done! I’ve been looking for a good rack/shelf setup like that for my “IT Closet” since I live in an apartment and can’t get a full server rack.

      Do you want the link for the thing I use it’s just a shower basket thing which I’ve melted holes in to route cables through the one only issue is that it warps a little bit from the weight
