I run Ceph on both a home server and a personal offsite backup server
(both single-host setups). It's definitely feasible and comes with a lot
of advantages over traditional RAID and ZFS and the like. The main
disadvantages are performance overhead and resource consumption.

Interesting to see the cost of those. 8 LFF drives in 1U is pretty dense.
Anyone using similar

2 GB is tough for an OSD. The main problem is recovery. If

Bummer. So it won't be enough for any Ceph component to run reliably?
Drat. The nice thing about the HC2 is the fact that it can power the
attached SATA disk and itself through one barrel

Hello everyone!
After years of running several ZFS pools on a home server and several
disk failures along the way, I've decided that my current home storage
setup stinks. So far there hasn't been any data loss, but
recovering/"resilvering" a ZFS pool after a disk failure is a
nail-biting
