I don't want to host services (but I do)
About my business? Sure! It's at https://kubesail.com and we sell our hardware at https://pibox.io :)
Our best feature is that the website will detect if you're on the same network as your machine and if so, offer "local" links instead of remotely proxied ones. That way non-technical users dont need anything fancy. On top of that, the "local" urls still get valid HTTPS certs for free, so non-technical users dont get any scary browser warnings.
We started out as a way to make self-hosting easier for corporations, but the users who joined our community were mostly home-hosters, so we leaned into that! Jellyfin is now our most popular app.

Ask HN: What hardware are you running for your home server?
I built a small business around this idea (particularly your last sentence about it evolving quickly), so I can’t not promote https://KubeSail.com and our hardware at https://pibox.io
That said, I use an old workstation as my home router and server. It’s worth the power bills in saved subscription cost alone. Much more relevant is how much of my time I spend on it!
-
Ask HN: Any Hardware Startups Here?
We make tiny Linux servers packed with real devops tools (but also sporting a somewhat-easy-ish-to-use UI) for home-hosting and self-teaching: https://pibox.io - works great with Jellyfin!

Seeking advice for a tiny mini file server storage
I am really loving my https://pibox.io, it might fit the bill if you can get your hands on one. A raspberry pi 4 should be okay too with the usb 3, it just might be not as neat

Running business while working full time DevOps
I do but my side business doesn’t make 6 figures! Curious why you don’t think focusing on growing that isn’t a better path forward. Obligatory link to said side business: https://pibox.io

What is the hand off, least maintenance, low-energy consumtion home server solution?
I saw solutions like https://pibox.io/ which is interesting, maybe ticking all the boxes, but all the versions are sold out. While I am waiting for them to be back to stock, have anyone used it and what is your thought? Does it work for my need? What is the alternatives?

Guide for a quiet, low-power DIY 2-Bay NAS?
I watched a video about OpenMediaVault and I don't like three things about it. Firstly the user interface doesn't look as user friendly as in TrueNAS for example, secondly the guy in the video I watched said there is no RAID with OpenMediaVault and thirdly the cheapest Raspberry Pi 4 Modell B, 8 GB costs around 160 USD where I live which is much more than I thought. There are Kits like the PiBox but they are very expensive too.

Feasible ARM NAS Setup??
I am quite happy with pibox. It's only two 2.5" drives, but they are also working on a 5x3.5" version.

A good low power ARM SBC for running an (S)FTP server?
I am using the pibox as a NAS, but that might be an overkill for you.

Router for a 1.5Gbps connection
One option is Firewalla Gold Plus, or you could buy a mini PC like it and run pfSense/OPNsense yourself.
-
Have the IT skills you've learnt applied to life outside of work?
Download and install pfsense as a virtual machine or partition: https://www.pfsense.org Configure it with the rules you want: https://youtu.be/VAGFGppSt74 Play with it, but be careful because it will block all traffic unless you check everything properly.
-
Looking for Recommendations
Another option is Firewalla, or buy a mini PC like it and run pfSense/OPNsense yourself. Two similar concepts, with the cost being either money or your DIY time. A lot of Firewalla users say that it's much easier for home use than pfSense/OPNsense, so you might find it worthwhile to spend a little more on it upfront and have to tinker less.

VPN for network filtering
If you want firewall, I think you can use https://www.pfsense.org/ or https://opnsense.org/ , maybe running on an old PC or a Raspberry Pi. Not sure.
-
Looking for Guidance and Advice
I've recently started using OPNsense. It's similar to pfSense, but seems to be considered a little more user-friendly.

Bi-Weekly /r/Technology Tech Support / General Discussion Thread. Have you a tech question or want to discuss tech?
For most router issues, I recommend people always put them in to dumb bridge mode and put a proper firewall like pfsense or opnsense as your gateway.

Another ATT outage 5/15
I have found that my historical average packet loss is about 0.02%. Something distinctly changed around 4/20 of this year, and now the average packet loss has gone up to 0.05% with spikes even higher, associated with periods of elevated ping times. It rarely did that before. Typically the IPv6 stack has more problems than v4 (especially an incident of packet loss on 4/28), and neither has been trouble-free since I started service in early 2020. My data comes from a pfSense installation.
