  There’s no rack mount server there. I see a UPS, switch (network and Nintendo varieties), PS5 and mini PC

    My bad. I’m so dumb that I see a shelf UPS and I assume this is some advanced network shit. I have an old gaming pc and a mini pc as 2 nodes in my home network.

  I had the same thought - an entire 8U rack to hold a single raspberry pi with an external drive?

  This table rack was the most space savey option i could find. It looks less stable than it is. It is super minimal as far as the actual self hosting stuff goes.

  Room to expand eventually.

  Its a rack mounted rack without the server.

  Wait so you have like rack mounted server but only run jellyfin?

  What would be wrong with that?

    I considered it pretty heavy equipment for just a single service but that’s coming from my experience running like 8 vms on an old gaming pc and tearing my hair out over how janky it all looks (it works fantastically for me tho)

      I guess it depends on your library size and how many users you are serving. My plex server has a library of over 100 TB and over 60 uses, so to me a rack mount server for Jellyfin alone doesn’t sound overkill at all

        Damn how does one amass 60 users? That’s a big ass family
