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:

  1. Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.

  2. No spam posting.

  3. 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.

  4. Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.

  5. Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).

  6. No trolling.

6 servers were decomissioned, Iwas able to only get the disks, RAM, CPUs and Network Card.

The total of this is : 88 x 8TB SAS disks 44 x 16GB RAM sticks (half 2133, half 2400) 6 x v3 Xeon e3 2630 6 x v4 Xeon e5 2640 3 x 10 GB PCIe dual port cards 12 x 1U heatsink

I'm really lucky to have all of these, even if I don't have a use for all of that for now (except some of the disks)

EDIT: Forgot to mention: All of this for free, I work in a datacenter!

88 × 8 Tb? Archive the internet archives.

If the internet archive wants some, I'd love to give some to them ahah

But I'm already archiving a lot of stuff, from Youtube, ISO, and more!
