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:

  1. Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.

  2. No spam posting.

  3. 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.

  4. Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.

  5. Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).

  6. No trolling.

Hopefully I'm posting this in the right place. I'm planning on using immich for selfhosted photo storage. I'm a bit worried that I may lose all my photos if my drive fails, so I'm planning on running two hdd's in raid 1 in addition to my nvme that I'm running my OS on.

I couldn't find this when I googled it, but is it possible to point immich to store data on a separate internal drive other than the one that the OS is running on?

If you’re deploying Immich with docker, you can probably specify any storage device as its storage backend.

I just downloaded their docker compose file and I see I can specify the absolute location on my machine so I think you're right. Thanks!
