Selfhosted
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.
Rules:
-
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
-
No spam posting.
-
Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.

I usually pick the cheapest of a brand I trust. Kingston atm for my ssds.
Don't care, even the crappiest is way faster than what I need plus less energy hungry than mechanicals.
I focus on size, buy the biggest I can afford according to the raid level I need. Currently have 4 x 4Tb Kingston ssds in RAID5.
Edit: don't buy ssds on aliexpress, don't go that cheap.... Go cheap like buy consumer level stuff not server grade stuff, but still from reputable sellers and brands.
Yeah, would be great to buy server grade stuff, but I don't have a server grade budget.
And probably not server grade requirements.
I could upgrade my requirements to server grade, but not the budget, so I would say the driving factor is budget :)
Hand me a bunch of server grade ssds for the price of consumer and I would gladly install them.
Oh sure, server grade stuff is cool, but rarely needed for a home lab.
