OVH rate limiting decimates outgoing packets. Specifically, that means if you have a burst of traffic your server can send packets out at the interface rate (1gbps) but OVH will simply throw some away in order to limit the upstream bandwidth. With …

(Quote) Performance doesn't need to be the highest priority for a home server. If you have some specific requirements, then sure, but for a lot of things a small SBC will be plenty. On the NUC side, I have a pair of i5-8250U servers at home; they e…

@Rahul mine is the 4G variant that I bought the day they came out. £45 from Pimoroni. I use it with an external SSD in a USB3 enclosure which would up the cost a bit if you didn't already have one to hand. With 4G and an SSD though it is now much b…
