Selfhosted

A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.

Rules:

  1. Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.

  2. No spam posting.

  3. Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.

  4. Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.

  5. Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).

  6. No trolling.

I have a pretty standard *arr stack going, but my media repo is stored on a single (albeit large) drive.

In the future, if I want to add storage, how would I configure the apps to look in multiple places to build their libraries? Is there some documentation someone can point me to?

Thanks for the help! I'll look into both OMV and Unraid to see if they're what I'm looking for

Also MergerFS like mentioned above, SnapRAID, OMV, Unraid, TrueNAS, or just plain ZFS. Something to create a pool of drives will be your best bet. These all do it while some are full OSes or hypervisors and others are things you can implement in your current OS. What are you currently using for your OS?
