I sometimes create them a Nextcloud account and send them the credentials

Sounds annoying to debug, glad you found the culprit!

Isn't one of the main benefits of scale(/25?) that you can run docker containers? Makes paperless pretty easy

Depends on your contact but most hosters have service agreements where a few days of downtime over the year are covered

What's UT? Was about to run Lemmy myself

(pre ai) I found that adding a few, tagging them correctly and then adding the rest worked pretty good with auto tagging. Don't know how much of a difference paperless-ai is going to make but it sounds interesting. I would just make sure to only plug in a selfhosted thing

What kind of cluster, kubernetes?

I usually find good ones in eBay.

I stumbled over Topton as well, and ECC would be indeed some improvement, but most of these boards are fairly new without long time experience while the Asrock SOCs have plenty of posts like "been working fine for 5+ years in my NAS, just upgrading because I need XY now".

Of course, more features and N100 are tempting but for a NAS they really aren't needed. ECC, Multiple NICs would be the most interesting thing and maybe something like IPMI/vpro (didn't check yet if they support that) but everything else won't be used.

I've seen Jonsbo and they seem to be good, but most of them are larger than I'd like them in my small rack (2-3HU).

Gonna check that vid in my break, thanks a lot!

What button?

Thanks, I'll see if I find something fitting there!

That sounds like a pretty cool project
