Homelab Gets Linksys Themed Aesthetic
Hackaday • • technology
Key Points:
- Justin Garrison built a unique homelab rig using a mix of familiar components including Raspberry Pi 5s and 4s, a GMKtec NucBox M6 Mini with an ASUS GeForce RT 2060 GPU, a LattePanda IOTA, an NVidia DGX Spark, and an HP Z4 G4 mini PC.
- The devices are interconnected via a TP-Link LS108GB PoE switch, with the mini PC managing control plane components and the entire setup running Talos and Kubernetes workloads.
- What sets this build apart is its retro aesthetic, as Justin repurposed old Linksys router cases to house the hardware, giving the rig an early 2000s look.
- He also customized the build by hacking the cases to enable status LEDs to function correctly and made power buttons easily accessible, enhancing both form and function.
