** Desktop
*** macOS
Probably should have added more RAM but Macbooks are stupid expensive.

A beauty.

| CPU | A17 Pro |
| RAM | 8GB |
| Storage | 256GB |
** Homelab
I run a small homelab with a mix of consumer (compute/storage) and enterprise
(network) hardware. I try to keep the lab energy efficient and quiet as my top
priorities.
*** IoT
A collection of mainly smart lights, sensors, and smart appliances. My first
preference is to disable all networking for new smart devices or simply not
connect internet in the first place (e.g. I never enable internet on my smart
TVs). If the smart device requires LAN access, I will connect the device to my
guest-restricted IoT network. As a last resort, I will set-up the internet but
monitor the DNS lookups via NextDNS and forcibly block any domains I do not want
the device to be using. If the device is egregious or shady, I'll just sell it
and either replace it or live without it.

*** Servers
1. Rack-Mount Server
I wasn't happy with using low-powered PCs as servers and I knew I did not
want the ear-shattering enterprise rack-mounted servers, so I built my own.
| Category | Details |
|--------------------+----------------------------------------|
| Case | Rosewill RSV-R4100U 4U |
| Motherboard | NZXT B550 |
| CPU | AMD Ryzen 7 5700G with Radeon Graphics |
| RAM | 64GB RAM (2x32GB) |
| Storage (On-board) | Western Digital 500GB M.2 NVME SSD |
| Storage (HDD Bay) | 48TB HDD |
| PSU | Corsair RM850 PSU |
2. Other
These ran as my main servers before I built the rack-mounted server above. I
have shut these down indefinitely for now as I have no use for them.
- Dell OptiPlex
- Raspberry Pi 4
