I've been (ab)using 198.18/15 (also reserved, cf. RFC2544) at home for years. It works just as any other network would and is a perfect solution for me. (Previously, I abused TEST-NET-2 and TEST-NET-3 and both of those worked fine

SSDs would also require additional SATA (in my case) ports and a place to install the SSDs. I used all of those for the devices that are actually storing my data. Because this is a "real" (headless) 2U server, none of the USB port

IRC was a fun venue for that one ~25 years ago. Pop into some random channel, send "/ctcp #channel ping +++ATH0", and wait patiently... a moment or two later you would be rewarded with a flood of "signoff" messages
