A friend of mine linked me to this seller earlier today. They have some pretty tempting deals, but I’ve never heard of them before.

Has anyone bought from them before and was it worth it?

    Thank you for all the information. I have had servers now for 7 years already, and honestly I still love them. I run a bit more than just seflhosting home-based applications, but I totally get your point. I am a bit older, and therefor a bit more old-school :) I sleep safely to the hum of redundant PSUs and Hardware RAID SSDs, haha.

    Especially thank you for PiKVM and NanoKVM. I am looking into that a bit.

    I am fully off-grid, so power cost is not that big of a deal, and the servers are far enough away for the noise not to bother me.

    I am not against anything you said, honestly. And I got a lot of new info. I am going to say this though: I am still not too convinced on the software RAID thing though. Maybe I am just too stupid, but I have not been able to get this going with the same ease, and have it recover as easily as proper hardware RAID. One day I will take the leap again and try to “get with the times”.

    Thanks again for all the info! Honestly appreciate it.
