Home Lab Infrastructure

by @rjbwork

Personal project - long past due to set up a home lab so I'm piecing together a SAN and some compute from old parts i have laying around and some second hand servers in a new rack I put together, along with setting up a bespoke home network instead of just using ISP stuff. I have long been averse to configuration and customization but my needs and preferences have outgrown commodity systems and default setups, and AI is making it much easier to customize systems, so I'm embarking on this journey after over 35 years of using computers.
