Sure, I'd be more than happy to! It's a home server build that started life as a gaming pc, so it's not a rack setup in any stretch of the imagination. I'm not at home currently so can't give exact specs offhand, but the setup is essentially:
OS: Ubuntu running on 256gb NVMe (not backed up I just replace if/when it fails)
Jellyfin/Navidrome Media: 3 SATA HDDs totalling ~60TB (2 x 15TBs, 1 30TB, no RAID, no backup. I call this my replaceable media, as I can simply redownload if a drive fails)
Config/compose files and 'irreplacable' data stores: 2 x 4TB NVMe (RAID 1, 7 rolling daily backups, 4 rolling weekly to a much more modest machine on the same network. This includes configuration/database etc. for jellyfin)
Entry points are all handled via a single VPS using a wire guard reverse proxy. So I'm using domain based access for all services I'm running. The only one that seems to struggle is Navidrome, which can lose sync. But jellyfin works flawlessly with this setup.
Off the top of my head, I believe the specs are something like:
- 128GB DDR5 RAM (bought pre AI boom thankfully)
- AMD Ryzen 7 9800x3d
- Nvidia rtx 4080
- 2 x fanxiang 4TB NVMe
- 1 x Kingston(?) 256GB NVMe
- 2 X Seagate ironwolf pro 15TB
- 1 x Seagate ironwolf pro 30TB
The case itself is a fractal meshify 2 XL. I got it due to the lack of RGB way back when, but it fits everything listed quite comfortably, as well as an AIO cooling system for the CPU.
If you're looking for large storage solutions, NAS servers definitely fit the bill, and make setting up RAID a breeze. But you can quite easily find large scale SATA based drives, which fit into most mid to large cases, commercial or personal. My current build is nearly at its limit now (I think there's a single available sata port left... Maybe another M2, can't recall), so going forward I will likely invest in a decent NAS, but I've never felt the need for a rack solution if I'm honest.
Another thing worth mentioning is that the server is not quiet. The ironwolf drives in particular can drum up a fair bit of noise when busy. I've got the server setup in my home office, so it's no issue personally. But it would definitely cause me sleep issues if it were in my bedroom.
