  • After which ctrl+f " in" takes you to the correct chapters. I do agree that a direct link would be more helpful.
    And for learning postgresql I agree it isn’t very helpful - using their tutorial links, w3schools or something like udemy if you prefer video format is the way to go in that use case.

    I remember back when you were told to learn to work with the documentation, not memorize it, because you will always have access to it as a reference. Maybe bookmarking reference books/documentation will make a come back as the search engines degrade.













  • Both DS220+ and DS224+ has been a pleasure to setup, but I wouldn’t replace your DS218+ just because. Just make sure your RAID is healthy and your backup too.

    An alternative to a standalone NAS is to setup your own little ITX server. Only if you enjoy tinkering though, Synology is definitely easier.
    At home I’m currently running Server/NAS/Gaming PC all in one.
    It’s a Debian 12 KVM/QEMU host with an m.2 NVME disk for host OS + VM OS and 2x16TB Seagate Exos disks in RAID1 for data storage. The other hardware is a B650 ITX Motherboard, AMD Ryzen 7600 CPU, 2x32GB DDR5 RAM and AMD Radeon 6650 XT, Seasonic FOCUS PX 750W PSU.
    With my KVM/QEMU host, Game Server and Jellyfin Server online it eats about 60W-65W, so not that bad.
    The GPU and an USB Controller is passed through with VFIO to a virtual Fedora that I use as a desktop and gaming client.
    Just make sure to have a sound dampening pc case so you can keep the servers online without being bothered. The GPU goes silent when the gaming VM is off.
