A mess.
Pi4 with 2TB SSD running:
- Portainer
- Calibre
- qBittorrent
- Kodi
HDMI cable straight to the living room Smart TV (which is not connected to the internet).
Other devices access media (TV shows, movies, books, comics, audiobooks) using VLC DLNA. Except for e-readers which just use the Calibre web UI.
Main router is flashed with OpenWrt and running DNS adblocker. Ethernet running to 2nd router upstairs and to main PC. Small WiFi repeater with ethernet in the basement. It’s not a huge house, but it does have old thick walls which are terrible for WiFi propogation.
Bad. I have a Raspberry Pi 4 hanging from a HDMI cable going up to a projector, then have a 2TB SSD hanging from the Raspberry Pi. I host Nextcloud and Transmission on my RPi. Use Kodi for viewing media through my projector.
I only use the highest of grade when it comes to hardware
Case: found in the trash
Motherboard: some random Asus AM3 board I got as a hand-me down.
CPU: AMD FX-8320E (8 core)
RAM: 16GB
Storage: 5x2tb hdds + 128gb SSD and a 32GB flash drive as a boot device
That’s it… My entire “homelab”
