Comment on Banana Pi BPI-M7 - More Reasons to Avoid the Raspberry Pi

For $100 you can buy a micro form factor Optiplex PC which has several orders of magnitude more computing power, but it does have a bit larger form factor and less ports than what OP listed.

And power, that’s a pretty important metric if you plan on running something 24/7.

Yeah, I’ve mostly given up on Pis at this point.

Your OptiPlex will have considerable PCIE expansion though, so you could slot in a second hand dual-port nic if you wanted to (10GbE might be easier to find than 2.5 and they are still relatively inexpensive as second hand hardware)
