This is very similar to how I run mine, except that I use Ceph instead of ZFS. Nightly backups of the CephFS data with Duplicati, followed by staggered nightly backups for all VMs and containers to a PBS VM on a the NAS. File backups from unraid get sent up to CrashPlan.

Slightly fewer retention points to cut down on overall storage, and a similar test pattern.

Yes, current sysadmin.

If you are looking for a "dumb" TV, check out models that are for "digital signage" like the Samsung BEC-H series. They are as dumb as you can get while still buying new.

ZenArmor. It integrates nicely with Opnsense and offers all of the features that I was looking for.

I run a pretty hefty home lab, so my costs are fairly high compared to some.

  • Electricity: $70/mo
  • Internet: $55/mo (1000x35)
  • Cloud backup: $20/mo
  • Web firewall/IDS/IPS: $8.30/mo ($99/yr)
  • Domain/email: $15/yr
  • VPS: $1/mo

Overall: $155/mo

I'm a Sysadmin, so my names are purely functional:

host-pmx-01 through 03, my 3 node Proxmox cluster

vm-[SERVICE], optional 01-03 if needed

ct-[SERVICE], for LXC containers

It makes it easy to reference things via DNS for service discovery.
