Can someone explain to me the advantages of using a VPN? in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Ok, so the ISP can see that I'm connected to the Tor network? Using Tor over VPN just adds one more layer of privacy, right? Tor isn't illegal here; what I'm trying to achieve is anonymity on the internet.

Why is it not recommended to use a VPN over Tor? Doesn't that mean the ISP can't see you are connected to Tor?

TrueNAS Scale looks great, but I'm scared by its memory consumption. I'm planning to have a 16GB of memory and 2TB of storage space. Maybe TrueNAS is overkill for me. I only need some space to backup my computer. However, it looks very good, and setting up RAID will be easy. Plus, applications with one click... oh, I absolutely must give it a try at least.

Thanks! What is your hardware configuration? How are your disks partitioned? Do you have any RAID setup? What are -arr services?

Hello, I'm seeking advice.

I need help with a new setup. Currently, I have a Raspberry Pi 5 with OpenMediaVault (installed on microSD) + Portainer + Docker running from a USB HDD, but I'm not satisfied with this configuration - it looks messy and is a bit slow.

I'm considering buying an Odroid H4+ with 2 or 3 SSD disks to run NAS + Nextcloud (and possibly Home Assistant) on that server. What would be the best option for me? I like how TrueNAS operates, but it seems a bit too powerful for my needs. Should I:

  • Use TrueNAS Scale with Nextcloud and Home Assistant as apps on TrueNAS?
  • Use Proxmox with multiple VMs (NAS, Nextcloud, Home Assistant, ...)?
  • Use OpenMediaVault with the KVM plugin and run Nextcloud within OpenMediaVault?
  • Or consider something completely different?

I would like to have the OS on a small disk and every other service on a second large disk (or in RAID1).
