I’ve been planning out a proxmox server for when I eventually have money. (Shut up. It can happen. Shut up!) but I saw something today that got me thinking. Minisforums makes some pretty nice shit at a reasonable price. The entire minis market has actually become pretty great while I wasn’t looking.

I need proxmox hosting opnsense, frigate, jellyfin, homeassistant, BitTorrent, immich, sunshine, steam, and i2pd.

So there are obvious advantages to building my own shit with a trip to microcenter. But maybe these micro machines could actually handle this shit anymore. Opinions?

    Have a look at Patrick Kennedy’s reviews on yoochoob under ServeTheHome - there’s some fantastic hardware available now

    I ended up buying something from AliExpress, which I was initially reluctant to do - but Patrick’s reviews convinced me

    For detailed reviews his site’s got the details from the videos: https://www.servethehome.com/
