Built my first homelab.

Top to bottom:

  • just a gigabit switch
  • thinkcentre running immich and adguard
  • hp elitedesk mini with a bunch of cable adapters to attach 6 hdds, the ssd and an nvme m.2 drive
  • 2x 3 bay drive enclosures with a sfx power supply. The power supply is turned on by a modified add2psu to be able to trigger it with the sata port of the elitedesk.

The frame is built with some aluminium extrusions to make it more or less mini rack sized

Could use some cleanup. But thats just aesthetics.

That's a nice setup, I really like that it's on wheels.
