Home servers · NAS · Self-hosting

Run your own Plex, Frigate, and storage — on hardware you own.

Sea Breeze Solutions builds home servers and NAS setups that self-host the services you'd normally rent — Plex media, Frigate local camera recording, backups, and file storage. Your data stays on-site, there's no monthly subscription, and it's all built and supported locally in Rye, NH.

The basics

What is a homelab, and why would I want one?

A homelab is a small server setup in your own home or office that runs the services you'd otherwise rent from the cloud — media, backups, camera recording, file storage, and more. The point is ownership: your data stays on hardware you control, with no monthly fees and no company deciding what you can keep.

It's equally at home with a business that wants its files and backups in-house. Whether you're a hobbyist who wants to tinker or someone who just wants it to work, we build to the level of hands-on you want.

Media

Can you set up a Plex media server?

Yes. Sea Breeze Solutions builds and configures Plex media servers so your movies, shows, and music stream to any device in the house — and to you when you're away. We size the storage and hardware to your library, organize it, and set it up to run reliably in the background.

Local camera recording

Can you set up Frigate for local camera recording?

Yes. Frigate is a self-hosted NVR that records your cameras locally and uses on-device AI to detect people and vehicles, with no cloud subscription. Sea Breeze Solutions builds the server, tunes detection, and connects it to your cameras and storage so footage stays private and on-site.

If you'd rather have a turnkey camera system than a DIY build, see our security cameras & surveillance page — and we can connect either approach securely for remote viewing.

Storage & self-hosting

What else can you build and self-host?

Beyond media and cameras, Sea Breeze Solutions builds NAS storage for central files and automatic backups, and sets up self-hosted apps so you're not renting them monthly. We plan redundancy so a single drive failure doesn't lose your data, and make everything reachable securely from away.
