Hey homelabbers,
looking for some architectural input. I’m in the middle of migrating my main storage server to new hardware and wondering if I should also consolidate my infrastructure layer at the same time, or keep things separate.
Current setup (3 separate boxes):
1. Thomas Krenn Edge4Go (bare metal) — OPNsense firewall
2. Fujitsu Futro S740 (Proxmox) — runs:
• Technitium DNS
• UniFi Network Controller
• Home Assistant OS (Thread/Matter, ~20 devices)
• Nginx Proxy Manager
• Newt (Pangolin tunnel client)
3. Fujitsu Esprimo P7011 (Unraid), being replaced with new build:
• i5-13500, 32GB DDR4, 4x HDD (2x 12TB + 2x 4TB), 2x NVMe
• Hosts: Plex, Immich, Nextcloud, Vaultwarden, Audiobookshelf, SABnzbd, SearXNG, Technitium, ~10 Docker containers total
The question: Should I move the Proxmox VMs (DNS, UniFi, HAOS, NPM, Newt) onto the new Unraid box and decommission the Futro?…
