Single-node Proxmox host running all homelab services. All-NVMe architecture since 2026-04-17: 4× WD Black SN850X on an ASUS Hyper M.2 card (x4x4x4x4 bifurcation) in RAIDZ2 form the unified `data-pool` (~6.92 TB usable, compression=zstd, ashift=12, autotrim=on) holding every dataset, VM disk, and CT rootfs (except the OS itself, still on the onboard Samsung 980 PRO 2TB). Previous 6×HDD `hdd-pool` (RAIDZ2, ~65 TB) and 3× Team MP34 NVMe `ssd-pool` (RAIDZ1, ~7.3 TB) were consolidated and physically decommissioned during the migration + case-swap. ## Chassis & power - **Case:** Sliger RM51 5U rackmount (migrated from the desktop CS383 on 2026-04-17) - **Motherboard:** Supermicro M12SWA-TF - **PSU:** Seasonic PRIME TX-1600 Noctua Edition (1600 W, 80+ Titanium) - **Role:** Primary (and only) production hypervisor ## PCIe slot layout (transitional, 2026-04-17) | Slot | Card | |---|---| | CPU SLOT 1 | Renesas uPD720201 USB 3.0 x1 card — intended for VM 201 passthrough (vfio binding pending) | | CPU SLOT 3 | NVIDIA RTX 3070 8GB (transitional — being replaced by Quadro RTX 4000, delivery 2026-04-18) | | CPU SLOT 6 | NVIDIA RTX 3090 24GB — for local LLM inference via LXC passthrough (config pending) | | CPU SLOT 7 | ASUS Hyper M.2 x16 Gen 4 card holding 4× WD SN850X (bifurcation x4x4x4x4 enabled on this slot) | | onboard | Intel I210 1GbE | | x4 onboard | Aquantia AQC113C 10GbE (high-throughput NAS access) | Tesla P4 was retired during the 2026-04-17 case swap. LSI SAS3224 HBA removed along with the HDDs. ## Final target layout (post Quadro RTX 4000 arrival) - Slot 1: Quadro RTX 4000 #1 (VM 201 Windows passthrough) - Slot 2: Quadro RTX 4000 #2 (LXC-shared: Jellyfin + future compute) - Slot 3: RTX 3090 (2-slot, extends into mobo-slot-4 gap) - Slot 5: Hyper M.2 #1 (current 4× SN850X) - Slot 6: Hyper M.2 #2 (future expansion — next 4× SN850X via RAIDZ expansion) - Slot 7: Renesas USB x1 (VM 201 USB controller passthrough)
