Figured we'd start this community off with a question about what you're running in your homelab!

This could be anything from hardware to software to things your running in the cloud (#cloudlab).

Hardware and diagram pics are always welcome!

On the big server, what do you use the assortment of SSDs for? I get specifically having a good chunk of solid state storage, but im wondering if you're like me and just acquired them over time, or if there's a specific purpose in mind.

Mostly over time - OS on the pair of 100s, the 800s were for containers/VMs - this use is moving over to CephFS though - the three smaller boxes are a recent addition.
