I appreciate the joke :) .

And I wonder when buying a new PC will be possible again. I postponed it when I saw the price of RAM.

Why on earth do you need so much SSD storage. Are you running a data center at home?

I use it to host:

- Movies/TV

- File sync

- Game servers (e.g. Minecraft)

- S3

- CI/CD

- All of my projects on https://github.com/shepherdjerred/monorepo

In the past I would use AWS, CloudFlare Workers, etc. but now all of my compute/storage is local (except remote backups)

The SATA drives are in RAID5 so it is less usable space, too. I have actually ran out of space in the past.

It’s definitely, like, sysadmin LARP, but it has taught me a _lot_ over the last decade or so. The ROI is definitely there considering it helps me be better at my job.
