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 made this website to improve the experience of shopping for drives on https://serverpartdeals.com/ as I find their interface not very helpful.

If there are any additional features or changes you want to make feel free to open a pull request https://github.com/Ykrej/ServerPartDealsTable

EDIT: critiques on my code also welcomed, this is my first time writing Svelte.

Server part deals have great prices on the hardware.

But the shipping to my location for some reason is 120€, a 50% increase of the product wtf

is the warehouse in the moon or what!

It's a US based company, and judging by your use of Euro I'm guessing you're in Europe...it's expensive to import stuff from the US, that shipping cost probably also covers VAT. Check out servershop24.de if you're in Europe

That's not included VAT kek

And for some reason it's always been this pricy with serverpartdeals, other stuff from USA not so much

Worse, Florida.

I remember your question here a while back. That's awesome.

this one is very nice too: https://diskprices.com/ (only amazon sources though)

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

That was the inspiration for this

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 weeks ago

I'm feeling dumb, where can I see the table?

Edit I'm dumb. I clicked the GitHub link not the article link

Meanwhile in Germany it is hard to get hard drives below 15€/TB.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

The last refurbished drives I bought were all in the range of 10€/TB

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

Sadly they've gone up in price over the last 6 months.

Mindfactory had 16TB for 160€ (10€/TB), but now they want 240€ for 18TB (13.3€/TB).

On eBay there's sellers like HMCW, which are now also more expensive. But returns/warranty are questionable to say the least.

Edit: I wanna punch myself because I didn't get one at the time.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 weeks ago

Nice! This looks like it will be much more convenient next time I'm looking to get a new drive.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 weeks ago

This is awesome. Bookmarking.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 weeks ago

Is there a site like this for other refurbished items beyond storage? More cases, tam, cpus?
