Building My Home Server | Kev Quirk

I came across this blog today while searching and I'm finding it very detailed, human, and instructive. For a beginner like me, this kind of resource is invaluable. What does a server failure feel like at a personal level? How do you make decisions about cost or utilizing existing hardware? These kind of thoughtful reflections along with practical walkthroughs of solutions make this a very nice resource when planning both the how and the why.
Maybe someone else will find it useful too.

What are some important things that have changed in the past five years that would change some if the choices?

The author actually went back to a Synology NAS after one and a half year of using this server.
