GL.iNet are good ones, or if you want to go the Rambo mode, then an orange pi r1 plus, one of these will do the work. Good luck

what it’s log2ram
Log2Ram is a utility designed to extend the lifespan of storage devices, particularly SD cards in Raspberry Pi systems, by reducing write operations[1][4]. Here’s an overview:
How it works
Log2Ram redirects log files from being written directly to storage (/var/log) to being written to RAM instead[1]. It creates a mount point in RAM for /var/log, so all logs are written to temporary memory (tmpfs) rather than the physical disk[2].
Benefits
-
Extended storage life: By reducing write operations to SD cards or SSDs, Log2Ram helps prolong their lifespan[1][4].
-
Improved performance: Writing to RAM is faster than writing to disk, enhancing system responsiveness[4].
-
Transparency: Applications continue to write logs to /var/log as usual, unaware that it’s now in RAM[1].
Key features
- Configurable RAM allocation for logs (default 40M)[2]
- Daily synchronization of RAM logs to disk via a cron job[1]
- Synchronization on system shutdown to preserve logs[1]
- Optional use of rsync for synchronization[2]
- Compatibility with zram for space-efficient log storage[3]
While Log2Ram offers significant benefits, it’s important to note that logs may be lost in case of unexpected power loss or system crashes before synchronization occurs[3].

Look for log2ram on a LLM.

Selfhosted@lemmy.world•This happens after 3-4 days of running the server, then I have to restart it manually.English
2 yearsSet watchdog to reboot every day and juice it until the last drop before it definetly crashes.
Edit: that’s just a workaround if you really want try to fix it my answer would be restoring BIOS defaults, then clean install of the OS and then check it everything works fine, if the error persist try installing another OS if it still fail then go to the first step.

My humble POV it’s to stick with whatever do the work.
Thx in advice.
You want to access your server under CG-NAT from the outside or what is the point??
I have bought several used hardware at local marketplaces which are working like a charm, it depends if you know about what are you looking for when you buy.
My recommendation would be buying a used HDD at a local online marketplace, if you want bang for the buck, if you don’t, then buy a SSD from AliExpress(important to check reviews)
I do, worked fine for like a year and then suddenly started having stability problems, maybe there is a problem with the config of my cloud servers but idk.
Yeah I mean, are you using the same DNS resolver in the server and client?
Maybe DNS problem?

2 yearsNot exactly if you have relevant information reach me a PM and we can accord an agreement…
Edit: nevermind found the answer by myself anyway good luck!!

2 yearsI believe it depends on exactly what you define as a “good” person…

Elaborate please.
