Original Title: To people who need a sign to make a homelab and think it could cost you thousands of dollars, this is your sign. This is my update after 7 months, you don’t need a full rack to setup. Maybe a small NUC is what calling you. Let’s enjoy and help the open source community together.


PC: Beelink mini s12 pro

CPU: Intel 12th gen n100 3.4Ghz

RAM: 16 GB

Storage: 3.5TB(found out I don’t need much and this has been enough)

Power consumption: 8.2 watts at idle and 22.5 watts on max load

I was hoping I would migrate to some bigger one, but this is very easy to maintain and the storage has been enough for my day to day use

All my work related stuffs are handled via office resources, so I just needed simple server to fulfill my small demands and this boy has been beast when I needed.

You can find the services on the image, TODO: I am trying to publish my github repo so that everyone can just run and spawn the services and don’t have to go through all the hurdles I went through. I will update the post soon
