Learn more about Home Lab and Servers, and how you can start your own tech projects! This is the first time I’ve put a lot of time and effort into building a Server Rack for my Homelab! I talk about the different components and devices I’ve put into it. Doesn’t need to be a big server rack though, just start with a single server, like I did. #ServerRack #HomeServer #HomeLab

Bob Pellerin (CTOBOB) looks into what to look for in a used server. Reliable machine can be had. Keep in mind that the more recent a server is, the most likely it will run newer operating systems.

The parts most likely to fail on serves are:
– Drives
– Power supplies
– Fans
