I see, well, it it still serves you good, nothing to say here

Good point! I totally forgot that.

But if I am able to recall correctly the QoS for the VoLTE and just regular data is totally different and the antenna may refused to provide you enough data for a non-prior service

???

There are a lot of reputable VoIP companies, my employer right now uses them and we never faced a problem. But makes sure it is reputable ;)

And you could also port your number so to all effects it is your number.

I don’t know, I still believe it is the easiest way forward. But in the end it is your call

That much? Shit, then update the processor, probably spending 15€ is going to update the speed a lot!

Uh?!?

If that equipment is not able to get 60Mb/s there is something terrible wrong here…

What you need is a sip server / interface for making VoIP call through internet, there are many implementations and servers, selfhosted and paid. Pick up one you like.

Please, be aware that the quality of the voice call depends and a lot of the data rate. Keep this in mind uif you are in remote locations with poor coverage.

It is always recommended the asterisk + the freepbx for the gui. Please be aware that I don’t have experience with those systems

I think I didn’t get exactly what you want. Ant it keeps me wondering that perhaps there are a few concepts not so clear.

Do you want to receive streaming from a server? do you want to setup the server? Or something completely else?

If you want to receive the streaming from a server, the most compatible cost-effective solution is the Amazon fire. Works with remotes and you will be able to play every media you have because the server will transcode the file on the fly if the fire stick doesn’t support the format.

If you want something more open to tinker or to get more functionality then a raspberry pi will be enough, because once again, the heavy lifting is done by the servers (via plex server or moonlight server).

More powerful boxes exists but then you need to start thinking carefully what is your use case for not eating money.

Precisely bitwarden movement proves my point. Bitwarden tried to degrade the features/compatibility of the solution and they couldn’t because of the vaultwarden implementation.

Can they always add new features after a pay wall? Sure! But once foss Sw is here it is simple impossible to remove functionality, at most, to get some coins for services not fully selfhosted.

If tailscale tries to do something similar is goint to be a shoot into their own leg, because all the sw already disclosed makes it impossible. Could they make the relay a paid one? Sure but then they will face the competence of a vps with the Headscale implementation.

This and only this is because in your home lab only foss Sw should be allowed, even if you need to pay some money from time to time

Honestly, this seems more than your assumptions and fears than anything else.

Clients are open source and foss, the moment something strange is in, Headscale could adapt.

If they finally goes to full close source, then the community will fork (emby - jellyfinn drama).

Your arguments don’t hold together, for the good of the community

I really don’t see how the enshitification could work when we have the fee version of the central servers Headscale

So yes, it could be a pay wall for some advance featuresike funnels and so on. But the primary use is secured…

I have more than 120 electronic identities, impossible to track the counter or to remember the tld of all websites I visit.

The concepts is only useful in a very small and defined scenario.

Performance wise AMD and Intel run circles around the m4, there is not any compititiom here.

Performance Watt per instruction is where the m4 really shines and still I have my reservations

Plenty of ipv4 only in 2025?? Really?? Without a possibility to activate dual stack or just the dslite-crap?

I honestly didn’t think this could be a real issue in those years.

Small and stupid question.

Why don’t use a ddns client to update your ipv6 evytime it changes? With a ttl of a minute your shouldn’t be able to see any downtime…

I (genuinely) thinks you are trying to solve a small problem in the complicated and hard way… M

The problem with such advance Sw is the overwhelming list of options and the lacks of sane defaults

It is not the same to find 10 different (and complex) solutions when you are evaluating what you can do for solving a problem. It adds more noise to the solution than anything else. And of course the minimum resources needed ;)

For the downloading I suggest you to have the download folder and the main storage both exported under the same nfs folder. Quite handy.

1. It depends of what you want as future proof (expansion capabilities). Usually home user nases come with low power cpu, a high power cpu usually is a enterprise grade nas, really costly for a home user. So having it separated makes the cpu upgrade easy but now you have 2 boxes. But if your terramaster comes with a decent cpu I don’t see any problem.

2. True nas scale is really a behemoth able of almost everything. I would start with something more reduced like omv or unraid. You really don’t need the advance enterprise features of that and it will add only complexity to the setup.

3. If you use NFS for exporting folders from your nas, the “computing box” will see this as a local folder, so no need to have 2 copies of the same file.

Hope it helps

Huh???

Honestly I don’t see your problem, a nuance? Sure! An unsolvable problem? For sure not.

If you want to have your system reachable from the Wan then you will need a domain name. If you have a domain name then it is needed to be resolved by a dns server.

If there is a dns resolver then you would able to update it dynamically every time your ip changes.

True that the time alive of the dns records must be low enough to ensure that an ip change does not let your system down for an unacceptable amount of time.

You got it quite well :)

Have fun with the build

Yeah, but even if they seems to be contradictory messages, they are not.

RAM is always the first resource that is depleted is a nas/homeserver built, more ram or the possibility of expanding the ram is always a safe bet. But for a nas or a non Realtime system ddr4 is also not mandatory.

Reduce the cooling goes into the direction that the system is not going to be under high cpu load, so no need to dissipate, you can even reduce the cpu.

SSD is not necessary for a nas but it will make you VMs or containers snappier.

So coming back to the subject, your cpu is overkill, and therefore your mother board too (it has even support for sli!), having more ram is always good but my opinion is with 16gb you are good to go for a good amount of time (my server runs on 8gb and I don’t experience any problem yet), obviously, your cooling needs to pair your cpu tdp.

SSD or m2 memories are cheap additions, and like somebody else suggested, it is good to have many pci slots even if they don’t go full speed (x16) but will give you the flexibility to add more sata ports or Ethernet connections on the 10gb.

Honestly, if budget is not a concern you can not be mistaken with this built, but I can see potential to spare like 100 bucks in hw and another 100 in bills in next years

Honestly, I have the impression your setup is oversized (knowing nothing about what you want to run)

NAS systems set on idle like 90% of the time unless your are doing really crazy things with de duplication and distributed iscsi for super big volumes, that I have the impression your are not going to do.

You can probably cut the performance/specs to the half and still being good for the following 10 years and the extra that you will save on electricity too.

As a comparison I checked this built against your synology and in the multicore setup is x10 more powerful (https://www.cpu-monkey.com/en/compare_cpu-intel_celeron_j4025-vs-amd_ryzen_5_5600x)

Just my two cents
