Right now on my sertver I'm just running without a key so it's like I do whatever I want

I enjoy windows don't get me wrong I just hate how lately they push the updates them selves i don't want that if im hosting a media server for me and friends.

Sorry for cheesy title. At years end I'm building a server for Media, Minecraft, Maybe Nextcloud/Owncloud and some other funn things down the road. My Problem is I'm now stuck at an OS and Solution to use. I Have my eyes on Proxmox but also on Ubuntu server with Docker. ESXi Could also be an...

I'd just get a new iPad from what I've what seen they're still pretty nice.

Ok thanks, I was thinking about upgrading but wanted to know if I was in the clear First

So my cpu is still ok in this situation?

Looking to upgrade from my 4790K. But I'm stuck in a pinch I've Debated 3 different option. 1600x ,1700x and even Skylake Extreme. I'm trying to keep the CPU Under 400 mostly because I need to buy ram and board as well but what do you guys think. I game mostly , Stream and I'm trying to find new...

I've wanted to learn ESXi for a minute but never really got around. How Difficult would you say it is?

I Run my plex for like 10 friends but most at a time is like 3 people. Hyper-V is the built in Virtualization in 10 Right? I have some Experience with Prox and debian. But I feel like trying to mount the nas to plex VM might get a little difficult for me.

The Gameplan is to Run Plex , with minecraft , maybe a couple CSGO servers since I have a friend that for the last year or two we tried to get some running and never had enough time really.

So what would you recommend for a Proxmox build and then maybe use a NAS as the storage media?

at the moment I'm running about 5TB. 3 for movies 1 for show and 1 for random storage and stuff. I plan on in the future to have all 3TB. I have an Old H440 Case I wanna use for this build. I've just been in the processes of do I wanna use a LP Xeon or go with an i5. Because I myself am trying...

It was more of user error lol. Like I undserstand how to mount in Debian. It's just auto mount that throws me off and in Proxmox case mounting Media from outside that VM

I honestly was thinking about the NAS +NUC combo due to it would be small and I'm guessing a lot less power hungry. I've used Proxmox before me and mounting drives don't get a long well in Linux. How Would you rate ESXi Though I've been looking into that

I've been thinking about doing that for a while but I just feel limited beucase I might wanna spin up a minecraft server or something else
