Do the devices have dual 10g ports each? You can build a triangle out of them.

It might be time to virtualize.
I have an HDHomerun tuner, it’s 2 channels for $120. I paid for plexpass and use that DVR, but the HDHR is platform agnostic.
I didn’t skip it, I installed ddclient.
Cloudflare is the devil!

For anyone following along, I meant portainer to manage dockers. Podman is a different container technology it seems.
Proxmox was the answer for me. OpenMediaVault in a VM for NAS, LXC containers for things that need GPU access (Plex and frigate). Hell, I even virtualized my router. One thing I probably should have done was a single docker host and learn podman or something similar. I ended up with 8 or 9 VMs that run 8 or 9 dockers. It works great, but it’s more to manage.
You’ll want 2 network cards/interfaces- one for the VMs and another for the host. Power usage is not great using old gaming parts. Discrete graphics seem to add 40 watts no matter what. A 5600G or Intel with quicksync will get the job done and save you a few bucks a month. I recently moved to a 7700x and transcode performance is great. Expect 100-150 watts 24/7 which costs me $10-15 month. But I can compile ESPHome binaries in a few seconds 🤣
I use Ubiquity at work, and decided on TP-Link Omada at home. I virtualized opnsense and the controller, but if you’re just getting started I think this is the device you’re looking for. Street price is $250.

You’ll then need a modem and access points. I use an S33, and I’m happy with it. As for APs- they are $100 and up depending on features you need. The mesh and roaming work very well. I over-spec’d to the 670s, 610s would have worked. WiFi 7 APs are <$200 if you’re into that.
You can old nvme -> SATA -> new nvme with any old SATA drive you have lying around.
If you want reasonable performance, you’ll need this:
From the wifi wikipedia page> Hardware>Embedded Systems
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wi-Fi
Increasingly in the last few years (particularly as of 2007), embedded Wi-Fi modules have become available that incorporate a real-time operating system and provide a simple means of wirelessly enabling any device that can communicate via a serial port. This allows the design of simple monitoring devices. An example is a portable ECG device monitoring a patient at home. This Wi-Fi-enabled device can communicate via the Internet.
Pretty much, yes.
I think you’re underestimating the computing power of these devices. If it has WiFi, it has an operating system.
You’re looking for something like ESPhome maybe. It’s a project from the same people that do home assistant. There’s a web server (and/or local API) available that allows you to toggle outputs locally, your browser directly to the microcontroller.
6·8 months agoNone of those specifically, but after you have a virtualization host your flock tends to grow pretty quickly. More that I’m hosting big multi-user things like nextcloud for a single user.

I use photo prism but be aware they paywall features
I’ve had good luck with the two inland nvmes I got from microcenter if you’re trying to save a buck. Samsung 970s have been good too, I’ve got 8 of them running at work.
Can’t be tight if it’s liquid
