maybe not fit for here, but for playing in Azure for home/lab use whats the best path is it still try and sneak into the small business partner space with whatever the old action pack is like today?

This might make a nice homelab server, if you have some storage... https://www.facebook.com/share/15igS6Lh5q/

Anyone have a UCK-G2/Cloud Key they aren’t using anymore?

I’ve been working really hard lately, using every free moment to get the room renovated quickly. It’s more or less finished now.

Anyone have the UNAS Pro? Looking for NAS and considering that one as an option.

crappy news, i think i've got crucial memory in most of my minihosts... https://www.theverge.com/news/837594/crucial-ram-ssd-micron-ai

i mean sure it’s got a few bad sectors on it now, but this should be good for another 11 years right?

Good morning everyone! Back when we first started WEUC in 2024, we ran a Home Lab webinar series. We are bringing home lab webinars back for 2026. We want to feature your labs and the cool things you're doing in them as part of this series. If you're doing something cool, fun, or just want to talk about the challenges of running a home lab in 2026, please let me know so we can get you on the webinar.

so i woke up to a fun discovery - one of my MS-01s seems to have flat out died.. external power supply seems fine, just wont do anything at all 😞

supposedly they have a 2 year warranty when bought from their store, but no indication if that also applies to their official storefront on amazon (which is where i got it, because next day shipping here in seattle) - anyone else had any experience with their support?

hope nobody needs network equipment anytime soon… https://docs.fcc.gov/public/attachments/DOC-420034A1.txt

I'm rebuilding part of my lab, and I need to deploy a new file server for profile management tools. I don't want to build a new Windows file server, so what are people using for a virtualized NAS or file server these days? Active Directory integration and SMB shares are the main features I need, and open source is strongly preferred due to budget.
