Another dot on my Observium map.
Storage, seedbox, vpn, (s)ftp server, backup machine (to cloud). I use it for these things.
I run my email, a samba server and some teamspeak servers on my ks1. Sometimes a vpn to.
I use my KS-2 as a web server for most of my websites. It's fast enough to handle multiple low->medium traffic sites.
I also use it for archiving. I have around 800GB of archived content for gameservers to use, and around 300GB in an archive of posts for a small-ish social network (where the posts are public; I'm not doing anything illegal/unethical).
I was one of the lucky people that got a 2TB disk even though it was advertised as 1TB.
Same here! Was so excited to see that when I logged in.
Backups, IRC Bouncer, nginx reverse proxy.
Mostly network storage, mounted via sshfs on different VPS and my home server.
Torrents, NFS server, media server, irc bouncer, backups and just in case, failover sites.
Whoa, so no VT, then useful for storage only, that's a bizarre conclusion. You know you could install software directly on the server, right? Without using hypervisors or requiring VT-x. Like, login to the actual server and install a web server, a database, a mail server, etc. Might seem like a novel concept, but actually that's the way people did things before virtualization and that's what they commonly do on these servers without VT.
A KS-1/2 makes for a dandy Plex/subsonic streaming server if you have no/very light transcoding needs.
You should mirror it to archive.org
