on List for 10” equipment for homelab in c/selfhosted@lemmy.world · 15 Sep 2026
My cabinet currently is 9HE high and it can fit 2 mini-pc’s easily and all the rest. Just the NAS does not fit into it. For that I would need at least 12HE.

Thanks sharing your experience! Does it also support the 2-way Audio of these cameras?

Digitus has a lot to offer for 10" Racks. I use a lot of their Basic stuff for my Racks. AS a Server I am a fan of Mini-PC’s. They are (imho) good enough for SOHO users. For storage an off the shelf NAS is small enough to fit inside the Rack. I did not find a good option yet for a TrueNAS solution (maybe one of the NAS solutions where you flash your own operating system?).
From my 10" homelab:
- Enclosing: Digitus 10" 9HE Wandgehäuse. But today I would get the 12HE version of it (my Homelab expanded beyond the available space)
- Patchfield: Digitus 10" 12 Port LSA Patchpanel Weiß. There are also keystone version if you prefer them. I did go for this because it is cheaper and I only need RJ45.
- Power connector: DIGITUS 10 Zoll Steckdosenleiste. it has 4 sockjets and a switch. I am using 2 of them.
- Shelfs for Servers, etc.: Digitus 10" Fachboden. I use them to keep my Mini-PC’s and router in the Rack.
- Router: Draytek Vigor2927 it just fits on a shelf and all Ports are accessible. It is connected to a Fibre-Modem, so it just being a router is good enough for me.
- Switch: ALLNET Switch smart managed 16 Port Gigabit. Unfortunately I could not find an option including PoE (that is reasonably priced…) so I went for this managed Switch and an extra PoE Switch.
- PoE Switch: YuanLey 11 Port Gigabit PoE Switch, 8 PoE+ Port 1000 Mbit/s, 2 Gigabit Uplink, 1 SFP Port, 120W 802.3af/at. It is not directly obvious from the product page. But the 2 included Rackmount ears work for a 10" Rack.
- Mini-PC as Server: HP EliteDesk 800 G3 Desktop-Mini-PC . You can get these on the used market for cheap. Look if you can find one with an i5-8500T (KabyLake architecture). These chips have very good Transcoding qualities (Quicksync)
- NAS: I use a Synology DS-918+. It fits on a shelf isnide the Rack. but due to Space limitations (9HE instead of 12HE) it is now stacked on top of my Rack.
I don’t know where you are located. So maybe you need to check if these are available to you.

I think it is kinda misleading that they advertise the phone number support so strongly on their website, but do not support it yet according to their own site:

If they would already support phone numbers, I would immediately sign up. But for just E-Mail: I can use my E-Mail providers (mailbox.org) option for that. Only benefit is the direct Browser integration.

Didn’t know this existed. Gives the flexibility to choose between different Hardware Vendors.
But do you have any experience on how easy it is to flash this to the Hardware and how good it works?

on Wero advertisement at bus stop in Germany in c/buyeuropean@feddit.uk · 11 Sep 2026
Saw this yesterday at a train station.
Good they are raising awareness for Wero. Only about 4 in 10 people (in germany) did know what Wero is used for (Source: www.tagesspiegel.de)

on Shopify is moving from React Native back to Swift and Kotlin in c/technology@lemmy.world · 11 Sep 2026
For me this was an interesting read. I liked the approach to make core business logic accessible through a CLI instead of just UI. This makes testing a lot easier, no matter if you are using an LLM to execute/create the tests or a conventional approach.

on French AI startup Mistral valued at over 21 billion euros after latest funding in c/buyeuropean@feddit.uk · 9 Sep 2026
Which they are partially already doing by offering GLM-5.2, See docs.mistral.ai/models/zai-glm-5-2
Some of their niche models are pretty good for their specific usecase. For example their OCR 4 model: mistral.ai/news/ocr-4/
They basically no longer try to compete in the frontier model realm. They know that they do not have the resources (developers and funding) required to compete.

Thanks for sharing this!
Just wanted to say thank you for the blog post. It was quite interesting to read.
And it being on your own blog instead of reddit is a nice fresh breeze.
