Selfhosted
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.
Rules:
-
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
-
No spam posting.
-
Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.

Depending on your comfort level and setup, you could use LVM. Then the differently sized hard drives wouldn’t be such a problem.
Or if you want a much more complex situation, you could set up Ceph. It will also give you redundancy, but it’s a really steep learning curve.
Or mergerfs if you are not too concerned with performance
Btrfs also allows for mixed size drive. It's the reason why I use it
Edit: autocorrect
I'm on btrfs. I have a 14 TB, a 16TB, and two 7TB drives in RAID1. I'm running out of space for all my linux ISOs and I'd really like to transition to some sort of 3 or 4:1 parity raid, but you're not supposed to use that and I don't see a clear path to a ZFS pool or something
