Looking to build/buy a headless Linux PC to #selfhost a few things including #pihole, #Nextcloud, media server, etc. Nothing that needs amazing compute power. Ideally small form factor like a NUC. This is replacing a Raspberry Pi 4 which I feel is underpowered and cumbersome with the 2.5" external drives separate or externally powered 3.5 inch drives. Ideally I’d be able to use the cheaper 3.5" drives on this setup without needing external power that requires.

I looked on local resale options and can’t seem to find anything available.

Thanks

    I have 40 containers running on a 12 years old NUC with 8 GB of DDR3. Most NUCs should be more than enough. I did really enjoy switching to a fanless case, though! 2.5" drives only, sorry.
