Sexy picture of my backside

Damn baby, nice rack. Wish I could stick my stuff in a rack like that...

Very tight. You must work out.

Hot damn do I want a rack, but I can’t find anything reasonably priced. X.x

By reasonable, I mean “unreasonably cheap”.

I watched ads for local companies liquidating server rooms, and walked away with a 42u Dell rack for a pretty good bargain. Took a couple months of monitoring though.

First off, that's good wire management. Can you say what is actually in that cabinet?

Thank you. I have a handful of things populating this rack:

  • Dell PowerEdge R730xd running Unraid. Mostly acts as data server, with a handful of Docker services for the home.
  • Custom gaming server. Ryzen 7 9800X3D, RTX 5090, running Bazzite.
  • UniFi UDM SE router + USW Pro HD switch + U7 Pro XG access point. 10gb SPF+ fiber ports go BRRR.
  • ThinkServer RS140, circa 2014. Has a capture card in it, and it's sole purpose is a headless analog video capture server, running antiX.
  • RetroTINK 4k + Kramer A/V switcher. Upstream of the RS140.
  • A cheap Panasonic VCR, while I get my new dedicated deck serviced.
  • CyberPower OR2200PFCRT2U 2000VA UPS. I need to see about getting a second one.
  • 4x Pi rack. One bay has a PiKVM in it that can be patched into whatever headless server I may need to at the moment. A second bay has a 4B in it that's waiting for a PoE hat, so that I can turn it into a wifi hotspot that backs up my dashcam footage while my car is in the garage.

Maybe some other stuff I'm forgetting.

God damn, that's impressive. Congrats on the great setup.
