I’m looking to replace a 2013 Mac Mini running Proxmox. Just curious if anyone has one of these or anyone heard of any negatives about them? Watched a bunch of videos and outside of a lack of 10G Ethernet, it seems to be well received!

    That’s a little steep but not as bad as I was thinking. If you are looking for the best bang for buck go with a old enterprise workstation off of eBay. They have limitations but cost wise that’s the best in my experience.

    For building a new system I would go for a cost effective motherboard and CPU and then get (or build) a NAS case. You don’t need a lot of horse power from the sounds of it anyway. Go for more cores and ram but be mindful of ram speeds.
