In today’s video, I thought we could take a tour of what’s going on behind the curtain at Mackey Tech! We’ll discuss my home-lab set up, my virtual machines, my network, my NAS and how I have back ups configured.

It's a shame the supermicro board doesn't have 10gb networking onboard. They have one with a 2011 Intel processor that has 2 x 10gb onboard.
There’s a lot of acronyms that I don’t know. Perhaps this is targeting the professionals, but this is definitely beyond me, unfortunately.
