Comment on OPNsense Bare Metal vs Virtualization
percent@infosec.pub 1 day agoSure! It’s completely solid-state; no fans or other moving parts. The case is designed to dissipate the heat. The CPU is some low-power Intel Pentium. I don’t remember exactly which model.
I ordered a pre-built one from Protectli because I needed it fast, but you can save quite a bit if you prefer to build one. These little motherboards and cases can be found pretty easily online.

I just found my order confirmation email. Mine is model FW4C (now superseded by the V1410). Purchased almost two years ago.
I’m very satisfied with mine. Nearly 100% uptime, except for occasional reboots after major system updates.
