  • I’m using 2GB RAM at this moment, not accounting for Jellyfin and Nextcloud, and i don’t have info about their load because they’re on a windows server. That’s all running bare metal.

    The offsite NAS is at my office, and is serving my office needs daily, i just added a backup of my home server to it.

    Do you have any idea how much cores/ram should i leave to Proxmox?


  • That is also a fine approach, didn’t think of that. I never worked with Proxmox, and had no idea i can run containers directly on it. How would restoring a container work in that case?

    Example, i purchase another machine, install fresh proxmox on it, can i simply restore the containers from the original machine without any additional configuration?



  • Thanks for the input. Do you think i will be running out of RAM in that configuration, like other commenters noted?

    The reason I’d like to have two separate VMs is easier backups/restores, that way i don’t have to care about the phisycal machine, if i want to move to something else i only have to restore the VM.

    As for the backups, i have one local backup on a separate machine (NAS) that gets backed up to an external drive, then another dedicated backup NAS that backups the first NAS and is otherwise disconnected from the internet, local network and power (turns on only once a week to backup), then another backup that backups the backup NAS to an off-site NAS, that also has an external drive making daily backups. Is that ok?









  • Cooling fan cooled the spaghetti, and when enough got formed, outer perimeters started building the Z support. After some time, the infill actually caught to the flying spaghetti and created a “solid” bottom layer upon other layers managed to stick. Due to the flexible nature of spaghetti structure, the printed part was wobbling quite much and couldn’t retain the dimensional accuracy 😕







  • It took some time to find the culprit.

    It’s under:

    Filament settings -> Cooling -> Cooling thresholds -> Slow down if layer print time is below: # - and - Min print speed: #

    I am running a bit hot, yes, 215, and the extruder is bowden feed. It does tend to ooze a bit like all bowdens do, that’s why i have to get my speeds and accelerations on point, because the “dynamic” speed/extrusion settings never provide good results for this printer and i don’t know how to account for the oozing on speed changes.

    I’d love to upgrade to a direct extruder, i’m currently using e3d v6 hot end. Do you have any suggestions?
