  • Here is what I have on a cheap tower server:

    • Proxmox OS on mirrored zfs pool on two internal SSDs.
    • Data pool on mirrored zfs pool on two internal NVMEs.
    • Externally attached NVMe via usb3.1.

    When I spin up VMs, they are on the internal NVMe zpool. They are backed up to the external NVMe.

    I have performed disaster recovery of my Jellyfin VM and other VMs from the external NVMe to internal NVMe. When the server dies, I can fix it or buy a new server and restore the VMs from the external NVMe.

    Hope this helps!



  • I borrow CDs from library, buy from bandcamp and 7digital. I keep audio files on my laptop in a organized folder structure by genre/album and rsync to my Jellyfin. To listen, i play from my laptop to bluetooth speakers and I use the FinAmp app on my iPhone to listen on the road because it has a sweet Offfline mode. Also, i have a nice usb DAC to direct connect (RCA) my laptop to my HiFi system in the basement. I support a local indie radio station which helps with music discovery.
