Selfhosted
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.
Rules:
-
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
-
No spam posting.
-
Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.

I don’t know that it would be worth the power usage. If it’s all you got, then it’s overkill in my opinion, but should work fine. If you are buying, x30 poweredges are getting cheaper, their precision towers in that gen and above would work, and would be more powerful using less power. E5-v4 processors are also getting cheaper, which you can throw into most of the x30 poweredges. And they run ddr4 ram.
But if the 710 is what you got, then it should accomplish what you are looking at doing just fine in my opinion.
luckily power wise is a non issue in my case. I can always migrate to a newer system down the road. but I have to start with it on something. so the R710 it is for the time being. Thanks for your input!
The room you run it in WILL get hot, make sure it’s adequately ventilated.
This. While great in winter it's not so fun in summer.
