  Not having any friends gifting me $7000 cpu's and companies sending me top notch parts is what's holding me back.......

  You are extremely lucky with the psu cables not frying any major components. PSA to everyone reading this: never use psu cables from another psu unless you are 100% sure the pinout is the same, <b>even psus of the same exact model can be different internally</b>

  I made the Pin out mistake many years back …. That was my first plex server. &nbsp; Destroyed all the drives. &nbsp; It was 2x2tb drives so the restoration was relatively minor &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Tough lesson to be learned

  The biggest thing holding me back from my homelab projects right now is the lack of fiber internet to my house. So much data I need to upload to remote storage for backup but 40 megabits doesn&apos;t cut it for many terabytes of storage. It&apos;s been 3 years since most of my neighborhood got fiber except for a little area around my house. Until this week, when they finally started running fiber mains along the poles near my and I should have up to 5 gig fiber internet within the next 1-2 months!

  I used to have a bathroom vanity that had 8 incandescent light bulbs at 100 watts each. It&apos;s crazy to me that now you can run this type of hardware for less than a quarter of the power it took just to power one small vanity in a bathroom.
