Yeah. I would need the 5 TB one for my stuff, so that is the €11/month box.

True. I’d have to get the €11/month box for it though. It’s cheaper to set up one of my Raspberry Pi’s with an external drive I already have. I just need to figue out how it’s best to transfer and dedublicate the data. :)

I think what I need to do correctly on my homelab this year, is setup off-site backups. I currently only backup to seperate drives and machines inside my own home. I need to setup something at my parents place to take weekly and monthly backups.

Other than that, my media server needs a bigger storage drive.

I’m not really able to answer that question. My unit is in my attic, so I can’t hear it anyhow. I haven’t noticed it overheating during the summer though.

Honestly, they are all good options. I have the Aoostar prebuilt option for my home server/NAS and I have had zero issues with it. 2 Sata SSD’s and it’s sipping around 12-15W power onload. about 10-11W on idle.

I had the Odroid H3 before that, with same SSD’s, it was using about 11-15W under load and about 8W idle.

You can easily add photos to an album from the web interface. But still not from the Nextcloud android client.

I’ve been using it for a couple of years though. I have not really had any problems with auto-upload from my android phone. So not sure if that “not even alpha stage” comment is correct. I don’t know the state of it on iOS though.
