I'm still dipping my toes into self hosting and trying to figure out what services I would want to be always accessible from my devices vs those that could be awakened by LAN, and which services should be installed at the OS level vs as containers.

As of now, I just have an OrangePi 5 Plus running Home Assistant Supervised under Debian and nothing else. I'm hoping to expand the OPi a bit and also build out another PC (hardware unknown) as a NAS media server and NextCloud machine.

Before I start doing anything I can't undo, I'm wondering if I' on the right track with my proposed setup in the image, or if there's anything else I should consider?

I would recommend keeping NextCloud always-on - this way your devices will be able to take advantage of background syncing without needing to remember to WoL. This also makes it more useful for other guests, should you choose to share your instance.

    Yeah, I was also starting to lean toward putting NextCloud on the OPi. There's just not much happening on my OPi and I was only hesitating from trying that because I didn't think the OPi could handle it, but it's worth trying.
