I love the fact that (until now at least) they have everything as separate services, so “stock” opencloud only does file synching tasks. Works better for me than Nextcloud the last few years.

Are you limited by compatibility on the side of the controller/appliance?

I currently run a Dell Wyse 5something, that one’s low power but passively cooled. Total silence for Home assistant and related services.

I had good results with SFF (Small Form Factor) machines, mostly Dell Optiplexes. More space inside while manageably small. Usually a lot of them around as former leasing machines.

Boost will let you set whatever you like. I set mine to “new” on “all”.

Um… The “barebones” docker compose doesn’t use TLS. How did you try to access the web UI?

Do you have your browser set to HTTPS-only by any chance?

I’d suggest at least 3-2-1, if documents and photos and other personal data are involved (think *cloud) have a look at https://www.elovade.com/blog/die-3-2-1-1-0-backup-regel-der-neue-standard-fuer-datensicherheit/

Edit: not necessarily with their product (haven’t heard of them before), just as a basis.

Don’t forget a solid backup strategy.

Yeah, that’s fair. I currently run a Ryzen 5700g-based system with 32GB RAM, 3 SSDs for system, docker and additional docker storage, also 2x8TB HDD for media storage and backups. The whole thing “idles” at about 37 watts and currently handles Nextcloud, Opencloud, Immich and Jellyfin, along about 40 other smaller containers. Unless something’s really active, the machine is at about 5% load.

So as long as you don’t need to do too many things at the same time (initial Immich scan is a bitch), even a relatively low-powered system can get you a lot.

As the other commented mentioned, each spinning disk will add quite an additional baseload, 5W at least each.

But what do you want to do with the machine? More towards services, more towards storage? Because both RAM and storage are expensive at the moment and will rather get more expensive.

One option would be to buy used, e.g. a DDR4-based system. It’s still not going to be pretty.

Same here, separate disk mounted at /docker

Can you post your fstab?

given the criticality of the stored data I would rather stay in Windows than risking data loss.

That’s what a solid backup strategy is there for. Which has nothing to do with the OS, so get into it.

Linux is also awesome at work, if your workflow allows for it. Unfortunately, I cannot see the CAD/CAE world switching over (or rather bizarrely, back) to Linux anytime soon.

Seconded. Works really well for me.

They all will do that, some more, some less. It’s to stop them from sticking in position.

Oh fantastic… That’s another 5 services to test drive.

Ah. Schade. Aber immerhin ein Anfang. Danke fürs raussuchen.

Mein Problem mit der Aussage ist einfach, dass der reine Wert Null über den tatsächlichen Anteil aussagt. Vermutlich dürfte die Produktion sogar mehr als verdreifacht sein, da inzwischen massiv viele Eigenmarkenprodukte dabei sind, die in der Regel deutlich günstiger sind.
