This was my starting up machine. Of course, an nvme makes sense, especially running windows on it. I went for Proxmox, and now I have 4 different machines, a cluster of 3 similar sffs, and a chunkier boi with an i7, 64gb ram and a quadro gpu. This one was the most expensive, around 250€.

Beware, this is how it starts. From a single machine in my office, I went to a mini Datacenter in my cellar, with 4 "servers" (micro-pcs), two Nas devices, a raspberry pi cluster, a dell wyse cluster, new switches and access points, and so much more :))

Lol, I kind of went the other direction. Built a massive box years ago, the hardware aged out and I wanted something that wouldn't draw 120w sitting there.

Tinkered with a Pi for a while and realized it really wasn't worth the effort to make it useful for my needs.

Came across this thing and setup as a test. Then I saw the power draw, 15w at idle (little more than the Pi!) and decided to see how much I could do with it. Ran Proxmox on it for a while, but the power draw was awful because it lacks good, easy power management. Plus I don't really need what PM can do...yet.
