What’s going on on your servers?

I had to bite the bullet and buy new drives after the old ones filled up. I went for used enterprise SSDs on eBay and eventually found some that had an okay price, even though it’s been much more than last time I got some. Combined with Hetzner’s hefty price increase some month ago, my hobby has become a bit more expensive again thanks to the ever growing appetite of companies building more data centers to churn more energy.

Anyways, the drives are in, my Ansible playbook to properly encrypt them and make them available in Proxmox worked, so that was smooth (ignoring the part where I disassembled the Lenovo tiny from the rack, open it, SSD out, SSD in, close it and put it back in only to realize I put in the old ssd again).

Any changes in your hardware setups? Did the price increase make you reconsider some design decisions? Let us know!

    Another week of not updating my proxmox from proxmox 7 which is outdated for like 2 years now because I just can’t be bothered tbh.

    Before ya’ll freak out, it’s isolated and only two containers are accessible from outside, behind a proxy. So no need to panic.
