I’ve had good luck running more intensive loads on more recent models of these systems, say 3 to 5 gens old … multiple desktop OSes running concurrently on Proxmox, etc. The “1 liter” class of PCs is really quite capable these days!
Comment on good alternatives to raspberry pi which are cheap and efficient?
lettruthout@lemmy.world 1 year agoWill second this idea. I’ve had good luck running low-use Samba servers on a Lenovo tiny model.

Thin clients are also solidly good as container hosts. I’ve used HP T630s and Wyse 5070s in place of RPis during the great pi shortage with good results.
