One of the first services on my server was nextcloud in docker container from lsio. Never had problems so there was no need to try AIO, but so many people recommend that, it will be my next setup if this one fails me

For 9 disks I would need to print a bigger case, but this one suits me well for now 😉

Daily backup to backblaze b2 and also to local storage with kopia. Its been running for a year I think, no issues at all. I didnt need a real backup yet, just did some restore tests so far

If OP cant use more than one disk at once, how can they benefit from mergerfs?

In my country pi4 8GB ram with PSU 130€ and then you need SD card and/or SSD

Adding my data as well:

My server is diy desktop pc - mbo MSI Z270-A PRO with celeron G3930 and 16GB RAM, 3x SSD on 550W PSU, idles at 23W. After adding another 3.5" HDD consuption went up to 34W. 34W in Ctoatia is around 34€ a year.

Some SFF PCs are at 10-15W. SBCs like rpi should be below 10 W, but dont think you can get anything new for 80€

Im not afraid of command line, but also dont feel like linux guy yet. The thing is that installing and using some distros are way easier than windows. I installed POP OS recently and cant believe how smooth and easy it was. Average windows users might not need command line at all on distro like that

Oh I love this one. How are gateron switches compared to MX? I had shitty romer g on logitech and replaced it with another one with MX and its day and night difference

Im interested what people recommend. If you dont find any, what about just printing to another pdf file? Wouldnt that remove attachments?

Thx mate.

I ended up downloading new version and then installed 2016 by following guide from new one. It uses different activation method which is allowed, so no need to hide VM.

I don’t know, I got my installation back in 2016. Tbh, I was looking for another installation, but all I got looks the same. I can signup on rutracker if that is solution, but is it? do you know?

I don’t know is it allowed to talk about piracy here? :D Please warn me if its not.

First of all, I own a SW2016 license and that’s why I’m trying to install the same version on another PC. I’m willing to switch version if needed, cant go back to dual boot windows anymore :D Some people obviously successfully masked virtualization. There are examples, but I couldn’t figure out myself:

example 1: For Windows VirtualBox virtual machine use “hidevm.bat”

example 2: SolidWorks_Spoof.sh

example 3: link

I was hoping I just need to modify my virtualbox on linux, but seems like its much more complex. I’m still reading and doing my best, but I’m not even sure are guides made for host OS or guest OS

Any tips how to try this?

Solidworks 2016

Tbh I see only one, but maybe im using wrong instance. Ill look again, it would be much easier if I find one that doesnt need activation.

It would be nice if I could find one

This looks promising, will give it a try thx!

Thx

Thx for detailed answer. Il check ot the links

Im trying to install solidworks 2016 and Im getting same error like the one on the next link:

https://serverfault.com/questions/727347/solidworks-activation-license-mode-is-not-supported-in-this-virtual-environment

Everything I find seems like possible at first, but then too dificult to understand and possibly outdated

Yeah its sad. But dont lose hope, Im sure Im gonna run proper CAD on linux before I die haha
