Looking for a new server
Hello everyone,
I am looking for a new home server to replace my existing hp proliant microserver gen8.
Requirements:
-
Reduce power consumption. It currently runs at around 60 watts at idle, I would like to reduce that.
-
Enough performance for various docker containers
-
Enough power for 4k HDR video transcoding for a jellyfin container, whether graphics unit in the CPU or an additional graphics card doesn't matter
-
At least 4 SATA ports and space for 2 m.2 SSDs
-
16GB of RAM is a minimum
It doesn't have to be a ready-made solution, I have no problem putting everything together myself.
Edit: Budget is ~500€

This is really good, do you know if I can plug my 4tb m2 ssd in there? If yes, I'm moving tomorrow😁
I haven't personally opened it up, but it does internally use a replaceable m.2 NVME SSD according to the info that came with it, so you should be able to.
Check that it uses the same interface for the M2 slot as your SSD (PCIe vs SATA).
It does. What concerns me is the sign "up to 2TB". And I don't understand if it is a limitation of preinstalled os or hardware.
