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!
Only upgrade this week is LED lights for my rack. The rails I ordered for one of my cases did not come through, some mistake during order picking it seems, so it’s only the LEDs this weekend. Installing the lights was easier than reporting the issue through Megekko. Doubt I’ll order from there again in the future.
