Some hardware talk (lemmy.world)

I am currently serving a photoprism instance for my self and the wife. I want to expand to have everyone's home folder on the server. So we would have 5 home folders, all lunuxes. Anyway so I'm looking at some old servers that actually look pretty good.

HPE Proliant DL360 Gen9

I've been comparing it with other servers and it seems to be the easiest to use for the semi intrepid admin wannabe that I am. Is there anything better in the sub $300 range?

Dell optiplex desktop or workstation would def be a gpod idea. Both are much quieter than servers - you can get the workstation if you want a xeon chip and ecc memory - otherwise the desktop will likely do what you need.
