Having your own home server rack or homelab is really useful, but you have to have a relatively large space to set it up, it generates a lot of heat and can be pretty noisy. So that's why I built this, the world's smallest server rack that fits right in on my desk alongside a drink or cup of coffee. In this video, I'll show you how I made it.
