Only use jellyfin. Have a list of things want to update... but it works for now.
Yes that is a laptop usb cooler used as supplemental placebo cooling. Also a pc fan I have propped up against the hard drive feeding into the pi.
Can't recall last time used the ps4 or switch. But they're there
I just got 10 Gbit internet last week so I had a chance to tidy everything up. The ThinkCentre is the 10 Gbit router, the Synology actually hosts everything.
Also finally labeled all the mystery cables. Also replaced the proprietary 20V/12V bricks for the ThinkCentre and 10G Fiber ONU with USB-C adapter cables to keep things tidier.
Oh I love that mini toy rack!
I was so close to asking what the hell that thing was
It's from a japanese Gacha machine! https://bitbang.social/@kalleboo/112755170852099746
Interesting! May I ask why you use USB port on Synology for Ethernet connection instead of ports on the back? Are they 1gbit?
Precisely, the rear ethernet is 1 Gbit, the USB adapter is 2.5 Gbit!
I see! :)
The ports on most Synology devices are the weak spot indeed.
It's 6 years old now so I can't really complain but even new ones don't come with 2.5Gbe by standard, it seems that should be cheap enough to throw in there by now. At least a lot of the new ones can be upgraded internally to 10 Gbe.
Uh-huh, and plenty of NAS devices had 2,5Gbe even those 6 years ago.
