Built when Netflix first took away password sharing. Thanks for the heads up Netflix! Would not want to start this project now 😂
Edit: adding temp and specs

i love the toxic kiddies on selfhost these days “its too hot the fans wrong” op explains and gets downvoted. whats the saying?, “not my circus not my monkeys”. if this is the energy your going to bring to this community go back to reddit and be a toxic pos there.
I mean… Look at the setup, though.
Nobody is trying to be mean, it’s just a pretty rough setup where thermals are concerned. And OP appears to be dismissing every joke about it and claiming it’s not an issue.
Good luck, OP. Hope this is the hottest your place ever gets, in which case you might be alright. Just keep an eye on those temps since servers need to run very cool to avoid long term damage and wear and tear. Be extra cautious of your large array of HDD’s. Those can get hot and people don’t always think about that.
Edit: OP mentioned lower in the thread that they are pulling 300-350 watts from the wall. That is a lot of heat. Maybe they live in Alaska and keep their place at 55 degrees, though. We don’t know… But for those looking on and considering their own setup, a lot of red flags are here for those who have higher temps in their homes.
I keep my place at 74, and basically have a per room heat pump to never have the temp be an issue even on a 108 day. I’ve been running the setup for over two years now and have monitored thermals the whole time and have never had an issue. I understand the concern, and had the same concerns at first too, but the results don’t lie. It’s just very well tuned for it’s environment
I’m choosing to focus on the positive comments, and giving info to those who doubt. In the end I know there’s a few people at least who saw this and got some inspiration for a fun project
I hate hearing fans and computers and have always wanted to do a project like this, but have always been concerned about heat buildup, like anyone would be. And while it LOOKS like it would be an issue… If it works, it works.
You are a bigger person than I <3 what youre doing is a great solution to noise in a living space and if you have no thermal throttling its designed exactly for what its intended for. Thanks for sharing you have given me some ideas for managing my own noise issues regarding homelabbing.
I just think no one’s really coming at it in a way they think it’s rude, and most had been out of concern, just worded rough. I definitely can be rough with my words sometime so I can’t be too mad. Also thanks for engaging ❤️ love you and all the lurkers following along
lolz that’s wayyyy too much emotional maturity for the internet. we need more of it :)
