Intel 14400 or 12600k for a server (sopuli.xyz)

I am thinking of buing one of these cpus for my upcoming server and I need some help in deciding which to buy.

As a precursory information, I already have a Noctua NH-L9x65 at hand, so I would like to use it for this project.

I am going to run software such as Nextcloud and Jellyfin and maybe some game servers every now and then.

The processors seem to be quite similiar in performance (same number of P and E cores), but Noctua compatibility centre (https://ncc.noctua.at/coolers/NH-L9x65-19) says the cooler could handle the 12600k better than the 14400 which I find weird, since the 14400 has lower TDP as well as lower base and boost clocks.

I prefer power efficiency over plain power in somewhat similiar products.

Which cpu would suit my needs better do you think?

RAID array filesystem recommendations in c/selfhosted@lemmy.world

Do you need to do some maintenance to keep the data in the array intact?

I read of some btrfs scrub commands and md checks and such, but I am unsure how often to do them, and what they actually do.

Thanks for the info!

Could you elaborate on btrfs on top of md raid?

This one seems the most likely solution for me.

Powerloss might happen as I don't have a ups.

And when it comes to mdadm, it just happens to be the first and only redundancy tool I know. I am however open to learn and try new things.

ZFS seems interesting, but: I read that ZFS would require quite a lot of RAM, and I was going for 32 GBs only, would it be enough?

What are the advantages of this over mdadm raid and bcache?

Are there some advantages of btrfs over raid? I understand how raid works but btrfs for redundancy is foreign to me.

RAID array filesystem recommendations (sopuli.xyz)
 

I am planning on creating a home server with either 2 (RAID1) or 3 (RAID5) HDDs as bulk storage and 1 SSD as bcache.

The question is, what file system should I use for the HDDs? I am thinking of ext4 or xfs, as I heard btrfs is not recommended for my use case for some reason.

Do you all have some advice to give on what file system to use, as well as some other tips?

Registar .fi nimelle in c/suomi@sopuli.xyz

Päädyin loppujen lopuksi ryhtymään omaksi registariksi, ja se olikin helpompaa kuin kuvittelin.

Registar .fi nimelle (sopuli.xyz)
 

Moi,

Olisikos täällä kenellekään kokemusta .fi nimiä tarjoavista registareista? Kokeilin domainkeskusta, mutta olivat niin kämäinen palvelu että haluan etsiä uuden.

Haussa siis pelkästään nimi, ei webhotelleja tms.

Tai onko jollain kokemusta registariksi ryhtymisestä itseään varten?

R on Debian (sopuli.xyz)
 

I am thinking of moving to linux (Debian seemed to suite me) from Windows. I have used lubuntu and and ubuntu somewhat before, but their use has been very limited.

My main use would be to do statistical programming on R and Python. Does Debian have all the CRAN packages I can install on Windows? What about packages on Python? Does Debian suite me at all or should I look elsewhere?
