Homelabs

I'm considering buying this box for home server (and local hubble instance). I will run linux on it. Any thoughts? Looks like a great deal, but it's been many years since I bought PC hardware.

I bought one of these to run an ETH node https://www.bee-link.com/

Worked fine! They’re perfectly okay machines for doing home lab stuff too.

you probably don’t think about liquidity enough // it is what it is  // build value, not valuation

I got a Ryzen 5 6c/12t with a 2tb NVME

16gb ram was limiting though - I’d go larger if you can

Cool. Thanks! I got the one I mentioned above, it's Ryzen 7 8c/16t 32GB, 1TB. I know 1TB is not enough if I want to run an Eth node, but I can upgrade it if I decide to. And for $320 it looked like a great deal.
