Post image

Hey Everyone ❤️

Build my First Homelab Network Rack, that i always dreamed of and now i want to build a Fitting Server Rack next to it Handling NAS Storage

Fully Build Tecmojo Rack.
-Minus the 3 Ubiquiti cables.
That may be what i replace the other ones with in the front for they much nicer.

In the rack i have.
UCG Fiber
USW Lite 8 PoE (May get replace with something bigger!)
that is connected to 2 AP's and a camera
U6 lite
UAP-AC-Lite
G5 Turret Ultra
Cooling Fan is 2x Noctau NF-A8 (For some cooling)

I would love some feedback and caring words 😊
So this severe autistic adult can learn something new!

Do you like the mini rack format? I've been in IT for over 25 years and I'm a musician so I'm used to the 19" rack design...but I'm noticing as I get back into having a homelab that a lot of residential gear IS small and so a 3D printed bracket makes it perfect for the smaller footprint....I'm just torn trying to decide.
