Server Hardware

Inventory of the physical compute nodes in the Home Lab.

Device Separation

This page tracks Compute Hardware (Servers, Pis). For Smart Home IoT devices (Sensors, Lights), see the Device Inventory.

1. Proxmox Nodes

The core compute cluster consists of two nodes: HALO (Primary) and EDGE (Secondary).

=== "Server | HALO"

**Role:** Primary Compute / Stable Workloads  
**OS:** Proxmox VE 8.x

| Component | Specification | Notes |
| :--- | :--- | :--- |
| **Chassis** | *TBD* | 2U/4U Rackmount? |
| **CPU** | *TBD* | Intel/AMD ? |
| **RAM** | *TBD* | DDR4/5 ECC? |
| **Storage (Boot)** | *TBD* | NVMe/SSD? |
| **Storage (Data)** | *TBD* | ZFS Pool? |
| **Network** | 10GbE SFP+ | Connected to Aggregation Switch |

=== "Server | REACH"

**Role:** Compute / Expansion
**OS:** Proxmox VE 8.x

| Component | Specification | Notes |
| :--- | :--- | :--- |
| **Chassis** | *TBD* | |
| **CPU** | *TBD* | |
| **RAM** | *TBD* | |
| **Storage** | *TBD* | |
| **Network** | *TBD* | |

=== "Server | EDGE"

**Role:** Secondary Compute / Docker Host / Testing  
**OS:** Proxmox VE 8.x

| Component | Specification | Notes |
| :--- | :--- | :--- |
| **Chassis** | *TBD* | |
| **CPU** | *TBD* | |
| **RAM** | *TBD* | |
| **Storage** | *TBD* | |
| **Network** | 10GbE SFP+ | Connected to Aggregation Switch |

2. Raspberry Pis

Low-power, independent nodes for critical infrastructure (DNS, NTP) that must survive a main server restart.

  • DNS 63: Raspberry Pi 4 (Role: Primary DNS/NTP)
  • DNS 62: Raspberry Pi 4 (Role: Secondary DNS/NTP)
  • RPi 5 A: Raspberry Pi 5 (Role: TBD)
  • RPi 5 B: Raspberry Pi 5 (Role: TBD)

3. Storage Infrastructure (NAS)
