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 a 13th gen ASUS NUC with an i7-1360p, even though it’s the “desktop” version it certainly works well as a server with 30+ different self-hosted services.

    I did pick myself up some external fans as it can get toasty on hotter days but so far quite solid.
