Had the Ryzen 5900X machines doing Rosetta@home for a day.
Nvidia GPUs
Had all machines doing Einstein@home and Milkyway@home.
Raspberry Pis
All running Einstein@home.
Work mix
The weather allowed for running Rosetta@home on the Ryzen 5900X machines so I did a burst of work for them. I had a couple of the Nvidia GPU machines doing Rosetta on their CPUs.
I also had the Nvidia GPUs doing Einstein@home and Milkyway@home work on the RTX 3060 Ti's. Sometimes Einstein doesn't give GPU work when requested. I assume this is caused by their running out of signal candidates for the FGRP5 work and having lots of GPU equipped hosts asking for work.

Raspberry Pis
All running Einstein@home BRP4 work

Work availability
We're still running from time to time, depending on the weather. In a break from the rain its sunny and hot with more rain forecast for later in the week. The Pis have been running constantly. I had the Altra running for a couple of hours yesterday doing Einstein BRP4 work.
The other machines have generally been off because they are excluded (by the project) from doing BRP4 work. I usually use the Nvidia GPU machines to run the Einstein FGRP5 search but there isn't much work available for them or from GPUgrid.
Milkyway which I also run on the Nvidia GPUs has been having server issues where it says it doesn't have any work but the server status page shows there to be plenty.
Storage server update
I got the parts mentioned in my previous blog post and assembled it. I had to buy an over-priced 2nd hand GT 710 graphics card off eBay so I could have a display. The GT 710's have been replaced by the GT 730, hence the eBay purchase.
I assembled the new motherboard and swapped out the existing one. Everything else got reused in the new build. I didn't even install the operating system I just put the old M2 SSD into the new motherboard and off it went. The only thing I had to install was the Nvidia drivers.
I couldn't get the 32GB memory sticks to work so I used the memory from the old machine (4x16GB sticks). It seems none of the machines I have recognize the 32GB sticks.
