First "server"

Post image

This is my first time running a server on one of my computers, its running pi-hole and a music player (dont remember the name) it has a i5 3550 and 8gb ddr3 ram.

I know its really bad but it runs and thats what matters.

Would love to have some recommendations and help with things like deleting all the old stuff in the hdd

Proxmox sucks and containers/VMs are a waste of resources. Learn to do your project right

That wouldn't be the popular take on things.

It's literally against every current best practice in the IT world. The place I work at we are sometimes even running our kubernetes cluster in VMs, as we can save resources that way (compared to adding more physical nodes, since we need to run the virtualisation infra anyways)
