I run snapraid and mergerfs, as the nas storage. Not much changes on my NAS and the stuff I really care about like my pictures and videos are on a small ZFS pool. Both are directly on proxmox, meaning I can just plug them in to another Linux machine and research if it all goes sideways. Its all shared from the host via SMB NFS or for jellyfin and immicher its a moint point for the container

Looks like a cpu/gpu type power connector. Even if its a standard plug does not mean its a standard pin out ! Craft computing on YouTube had what looked like a standard plug in his server but it had a 12volt and ground switched, so would have caused some real damage

I second this, when a drive shits the bed a sata controller handles it better, some times with a USB adapter you mess the whole bus up and need a reboot of the machine (from using them on windows experience)

Should be fine, I’m writing to spinning rust, so if I was playing back a movie it could cause a few “dad the tv is buffering again” problems

With arr services try to limit network throughput and disk throughput on them, as if either are maxed out for too long (like moving big linux iso files) it can cause weird timeouts and failures

Another one to have a search for is IPFS.

It always throws me when I see at 1080 movie less than 5gb, then I scroll across and see it’s x265…

Both devices need the same subnet mask, otherwise only one can see the “extra addresses” but in my opnsense I think I and to add some firewall router between LAN & WG0

So the subnet mask is got from the device handing out dhcp. Not 100% sure but on my android the subnet mash for wireguard is as /24 set on the device and also matching in the wireguard settings in opnsense. Opnsense is very very powerful, I would watch a few videos on YouTube about subneting, wireguard routing & dhcp. Its gonna be quite the learning curve (or could be)

As to why everything has stopped working who knows…

My friendly 2 pence, my mobile provider me a 10.x.x.x IP with CNAT (carrier grade NAT) when I’m on mobile data.

Could you not set your subnet mask on the wireguard and home to 255.255.0.0 then you can see the whole 10.0.x.x block in a broadcast?

Good point, what happens if you run that command ? It might also just left over from when they made the custom image and forgot to clean it all up ?

From the location of that script usr lib virt-sysprep looks to be a script put in the image by the provided to do a few things on first boot. Would have thought it was normal, but you can always ask them to double check
