I’ve been running Unraid for over 5 years now and it has been great. I just checked the uptime on it and it’s been running for 146 days, 11 hours, 31 minutes. I should probably check for updates…

I used to run a Threadripper 2950x with 64GB of RAM as my main system and built a new PC when Ryzen 5000 came out and the Threadripper system became the Unraid server. I threw it into a 24-bay, 4U Supermicro CSE-846 with a LSI SAS9211-8I HBA and an extra RTX 3060 I had for hardware transcoding Plex. I have 64TB of storage at the moment with no drive being larger than 8TB. Having 24 bays is nice for that. The server is in a rack in my cellar so sound isn’t an issue for me. I’ve thought about switching to an Epyc setup just to have IPMI built into the motherboard instead of buying a separate KVM device

I have 8 containers and 5 VMs running. I have multiple VLANs setup on my UDM Pro and Juniper switches. A camera VLAN, one for IoT devices for Home Assistant. A Tailscale exit node container is all I use to access the server remotely. I also have a Rustdesk server VM setup for private remote desktop

There’s zero attempt to hide the branding on the actual product. Nintendo logo on the main shell, GBC sticker on the back. Hell, they even include the “Questions and Service” 1-800 number sticker for the back

I put mine together last week. Cool piece of kit
