Then you need to examine what it is you're trying to do, because it's unclear and weird.

Guys, I have a problem with my BROcade switch.
No, not that I have to use the CLI to o figure it because the web interface was built on the Geocities platform.
It’s physically too deep (that’s what she said) to fit in my rack that’s under the basement stairs.
I already had to slide the patch panels and switches down the few spaces I could to shoehorn in my Unifi UDM LOONIX CLOUD KEY, and the BROcade is deeper than that.
I think I need to relocate the Synology NAS and it’s drive expander that sit in the bottom of the rack, elsewhere. They’re not rack devices anyways.
And the UPS takes up like 7u’s because it’s what I already had, and also not rack mount.
Looks like I gotta spend some $$$$.

Sounds like you've got a lot of stuff not intended to mount in racks, so why try to smash those square pegs into round holes?
If you're still in the region, someone was selling a 4u 20 bay hotswap around here

That wouldn't do anything for me. I just run a pair of synology NAS these days.
And yeah, I'm still here. Not moving any time soon if ever.

dumbass Q since I haven't touched this stuff in forever:
I'm planning on setting up openmediavault for a home NAS. But the Starlink router is wifi5, and my OMV box has an AX210 wifi6e card in it, and I'm looking at it and pondering if I should just ditch the router and make this lil machine do everything.
Thoughts on running proxmox on the box as a VM host, then pfsense/opnsense for routing/VPN/whatever + OMV for home NAS duties in VM's?
If I do, should I try to put shit on different physical drives (proxmox drive, pfsense drive, OMV system drive, OMV storage drive) or is combining drives OK? Because the system I'm planning on using, a little Dell 3050 Micro, only has a NVMe slot and a 2.5" SATA bay, and I'm hoping I can use the NVMe for OMV storage and cram everything else on a SATA SSD. I've also got a 3060 SFF which I can cram a bunch more drives into if I have to.
Backup will be done over USB, haven't 100% figured that part out yet.

I have come into the possession of an Arris TG1682G which appears to be old Xfinity equipment and is locked to their network. There doesn't appear to be a way in the settings to completely reprovision it. I can't find any factory default firmware. Is there a way to make it usable or is it just a $300 paperweight?
