Hey, I'm always searching a home server (already post here https://lemmy.ml/post/15083947), I was thinking about a Lenovo P500, but maybe the PSU is a bit too special...
My budget around $140, will buy used parts and one of the most important thing is the power efficiency (don't care about the peak wattage but want to stay around 50W idle and settling at about 70W when doing some work). Preferably I wouldn't like to buy mini PCs. š Thx!
The Lenovo P500 has 64gb RAM, 12 vcores for as low as $135, and it seems a bit power efficient
The onlydownside is that the PSU is a bit strange (hard to find)
It sounds like you already know what you want to buy, just fucking buy it. Why are you fishing for other peopleās approval on what you spend your own money on?
