After a few years, I knew I wanted to build a server and have my own rack. Being naive, I thought I could build one following a post I found on Reddit.

After spending way more than initially planned, I realize I could have just bought a 22U rack and been a wash but I still like the rack I made.

I installed Proxmox for the server and have done many projects with a NAS, testing a SAN network, upgrading to a Cisco L3 switch, hosting my own Plex server, game servers, my own cloud storage, password manager, to now a website and much much more.
