Server box just died, recommendations for a new one?

Sekoia@lemmy.blahaj.zone to Selfhosted@lemmy.world – 43 points –

My Intel NUC server just died (whenever it's plugged in, it makes a buzzing noise, and the external power LED is off (the internal one is on tho)), so I need a new server box. Any recommendations?

I can salvage the RAM (16 GB DDR4) and hard drive (1TB HDD) off of this one, I believe.

Are you going fangless?

I would definitely go fangless. I have been bitten enough times. A bite might also transfer viruses. Nowadays I defang all my computers.

Dude, what the fuck. Defanging is so god damn inhumane. If you want a computer without fangs, you don’t want a computer. You want an SBC.

Actually, only after posting it came to my mind that anyway all intel nukes are fangless. That's their appeal. So that their bytes leave no marks. Long live the vempire.
