The Living Room Server: O3DL Behind the Scenes
If you didn't already know; there is a Youtube channel! Subscribe if you haven't already.
This is the first in a small "Behind the Scenes" series I want to make about what it takes to run the site. Since COVID restrictions have lifted, I'm more free to move around and will soon visit the datacenter for some filming. But for now: Welcome to my living room! It's quite small, but I make the best of it. Doesn't help that I'm a bit of a hoarder. :') The backup server is the most laid-back part of the site. It just pulls data from the main servers every now and then, and stores it in case I need it.
Please let me know if you found this interesting. The future videos in the series will be more in-depth and technical, explaining the main components that make the site work.

Very cool, thanks for sharing. I'm the same when it comes to data storage, keep everything local and physical as much as possible.
I was onboard until the Xboxes. I feel bad enough having a 360 and not playing it lol.
Yeah, those are a bit of a problem because they take up so much space too. It doesn't help that my dad is who's fueling this collection. Half of the consoles are ones he bought at thrift stores and just dropped at my place. He's just looking for excuses to buy stuff since he retired.. (And I can't say no!)
