45Drives just launched their HomeLab e-store. Crazy prices and nonsensical parts in c/homelab@selfhosted.forum

I think they are aiming for “cool stuff, easy mode” for those that want to pay for it.

That’s great and all, but if you’re creative there’s cheaper things you can do. Which to me that’s more fun anyways.

What’s my cheapest way into NVMe storage clustering? in c/homelab@selfhosted.forum

This is a great article but it definitely shows that you shouldn’t expect much

He’s not even reaching the IOPS of a single drive in his testing :(

I might have to find something else lol

What’s my cheapest way into NVMe storage clustering? (alien.top)
 

I kinda want to put together a Ceph storage cluster — but I know it can take quite a bit to get good IOPS from ceph — good CPU’s and fast enterprise drives (but I want NVMe), oh and also good networking. But I mainly want to see what I can get in the IOPS department so sequential throughput, I’m not too worried about

How would you guys go about this? Any good hardware choices now that prices of things have come down a good bit in the last year or so?
