Disclaimer: This blog was written without the help of LLMs (although that should be obvious) or any kind of financial incentive. I bought all the hardware myself, don’t have stocks in any of these companies and don’t use affiliate links. The result is entirely my own, unprofessional rambling. Though no one can claim to be devoid of bias, this article is as honest as I dare to be with myself. Which may not be a whole lot after spending hundreds on a weird homelab, but it’s the best you’re going to get.
