• I prefer all my stuff to do one thing only.

    So the NAS is just file storage.
    The Raspberry Pi with Home Assistant is just Home Assistant.
    The Plex server is just the Plex server.
    The Grafana is just the Grafana.
    And so on.

    Been burned far too many time by "this thing failed, and oops it's also these 2 other things and now it's all lost.".

  • I hear you, particularly when it comes to Pis. I'm enjoying using an old laptop instead, and rumning multie things with a much greater degree of confidence.

    And i get to remote backup various virtual images much more painlessly than some incremental OS dependent backup.
