Does anyone else use old equipment for homelab use? If so, what are you running?
A few years ago I had a couple old and slow Optiplex's running Hyper-V, with Windows/Linux VM's, doing things like NPS, AD, etc.
Had some old equipment collecting dust, so I've built out a decent homelab and am curious if anyone else has done the same, and if so what are they running on them for fun?
In my new "rack":
PowerEdge R430
Running ProxMox, with a Windows VM (DC), and a Linux VM with Docker for Plex
EqualLogic PS4100
VM storage for both PowerEdge servers (10TB)
Ubiquiti EdgeSwitch 24 250w
PowerEdge R720
Running ProxMox, with some Linux VM's, most utilizing Docker for Plex "assistance/automations" (ahem), NextCloud for phone photo backup and wife's photography, and another DC as a failover of R430's DC.
