Need recommandations for a home server
Need recommandations for a home server
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. đ Thx!

You got your answers before, you just donât want to accept them. The relationship between budget and performance expectation still borders delusion.
To quote u/Peachman who hit the nail on the head:
Looking for recommendations for a racecar, at least 800 horsepower. Needs to hit 60 mph in under 4 seconds. My budget is $2000. Please give recommendations. LOL
Fork out more money or lower your expectation.

Hahaha it's that guy again. I want an Amazon server for a fiver please!
-
Yeah it's me again because I wanna to make sure that I will buy the right thing for my homelab journey (don't wanna spend money uselessly)

In fact I've found pretty nice deal with 128gb and 24vcores at $160, the only downside is that it's a proliant dl380 g8 m, so it's going to be noisy and power hungry
-
Factor in power bills and heat and noise into your calculations.
-
That's exactly why I didn't buy it, and I don't need so much specs, just something more power efficient with lower specs, so if you have some recommandations...

I would look into thin clients and Lenovo etc. tiny PC for office on eBay. I run old low power low noise rackmount Supermicros which are nice but hard to find at low prices.
