The pinnacle of homelabbers is the home rack. It means you have enough equipment and projects to dedicate an entire room of your house to the hobby. Congratulations, you did it!

But every homelab needs to start somewhere, but even the most humble of setups need a place to live without annoying everyone who lives with you.

Today, we're building a DIY 8-Bay NAS and Virtualization Server that should be more than enough to run homelab services, and be quiet enough to keep in the house.
