10 days agoYou have listed some good options there👍 One additional possibility: what about repurposing an old enterprise workstation, like Dell Optiplex, HP Elitedesk, Lenovo Thinkcentre etc.? They can be bought for around 50-100 e/$. For a similar use case I’ve been running an Optiplex 7010 SFF (Small form factor) with i5 3XXX and 16G of ddr3 and it has been plenty of powerfull for the purpose.
Thanks for reminding about this project! Had a look a year back and it looked quite green at the time. Any first hand experience, how did you install it?
