Anyone like me, one or two is fine. If you’re a business, that won’t be sufficient.
It does. I only turn it on when I need it.
I didn’t actually know this. Now I won’t get anything done on my honey-do list this weekend…
You only get 3 users with the free version
It’s free for personal use, although they offer paid versions for enterprise. It’s built using Wireguard, so there is a coordination server that’s accessed using the web app, but all the traffic is encrypted from client to client.
HARDWARE:
- Dual Xeon E5-2640v3
- Nvidia Quadro P2000 GPU
- 128Gb DDR4 ECC Memory
- 4 x 4tb WD Red plus drives in raidz2 for bulk network storage
- 2 x 500gb WD Red SSD, mirrored for fast network storage
- 2 x 1tb Samsung EVO 870 SSD, mirrored for vms
- 1 x 2tb WD Purple Surveillance Drive
- 1 x 8tb Seagate Barracuda Media Drive
PROXMOX:
- Nginx
- Nextcloud
- Truenas with Backblaze B2 backup
- 2 x WordPress sites
- Home Assistant
- Grafana
- Mosquito MQTT
- Tailscale VPN

- 3D print server (Repetier Pro) with webcam feeds
- Plex
- Blue Iris NVR
- Codeproject.ai (object detection)
- Transmission with PIA VPN
- Backblaze personal backup client for media
Object detection will be a challenge, especially for multiple cameras. It’ll probably be fine if you have an Intel processor with quick sync.
I’m running Blue Iris on a Windows VM. I also have codeproject.ai on an Ubuntu VM with a Quadro P2000 for object detection (it also does Plex transcoding, the object detection doesn’t stress it very much).
My previous “home server” was a raspberry pi 4 running home assistant and motioneye for 2 cameras. It was able to handle it with a reasonable amount of headroom. That being said, I couldn’t imagine an SBC being able to handle object detection on top of that.
This isn’t unprecidented though. All the way back to 2000, the second driver in the dominant car has had similar performance with the exception of 2014 - 2016 when Lewis and Nico absolutely dominated.
