Recently, I saw a fellow V-site user share their experience of deploying 50 services on a Mac mini, which was quite inspiring. Looking back at my own Homelab journey, I thought this would be a good opportunity to organize and summarize the various services I’m actually running at home.

My Homelab primarily consists of three devices.

| Synology DSM 923+ | DSM 7.2.1 | AMD Ryzen R1600 / 12GB / 32TB HDD | Storage/backup for photos and server data |
