Sounds like you haven't taken the time to properly design your environment.

Lots of home gamers just throw stuff together and just "hack things till they work".

You need to step back and organize your shit. Develop a pattern, automate things, use source control, etc. Don't just file follow the weirdly -opinionated setup instructions. Make it fit your standard.

    This. I definitely need to take the time to organize. A few months ago, I setup a new 4U rosewill case w 24 hotswap as bays. Expanded my storage quite a bit, but need to finish moving some services too. I went from a big outdated SMC server to reusing an old gaming mobo since its an i7 but 95w vs 125wx2 lol.

    It took a week just to move all my Plex data cuz that Supermicro was only 1GbE.

    only 1gbE

    What needs more than 1gbe? Are you streaming 8k?

    Sounds like you are your own worst enemy. Take a step back and think about how many of these projects are worth completing and which are just for fun and draw a line.

    And automate. There are tools to help with this.

    I think they wanted to mean it was a bottleneck while moving to the new hardware
