Silent, Efficient, Low power PC or Server #homelab #automation

I built a silent, low power PC / Server and it's awesome. It's efficient, supports virtualization, and powerful enough to run as a server!

Wish more companies would produce fully silent Windows PCs

That's unfortunate timing the new n100 SoCs just came out and are a lot more powerful than the ones found in the Celeron 5k line

Using similar device as pfsense for 8 years and never had an issue. Great success.

love this low-power server series. I live in California and power is expensive here. Better to rent a VPS instead. I think 24-50W might make sense for the home server.

But, will it run Crysis? Jokes aside. This could run OPNSense without trouble. Right?

Legit question. Why have the OS on the M.2 and not the NVME? Wouldn't the nvme be better to have the OS?

How can you combined hardware of 4 of them to one? Does Proxmox supported it?

Can I find any tech spec of this beauty anywhere?

Just built my own server fully focused on power consumption. Intel Core i5-10400, 64GB DDR4 and 2 500GB SSDs. Running proxmox with 5 VMS, power consumption is around 10 watt. Sorry but this doesnt sound very low power.

Silly man, you need cooking oil… ugh, who’s silly now ;)
