  This all day. USB3 has plenty of bandwidth to keep those spinners busy, and a cheap pc can be bought for under $200 that would handle all the services op described, plus more.

  I bought an n150 with 12gb RAM, dual 2.5gb nic, built in name and USB 3.2. it uses like 15w of power, is basically silent, and with a 5 bay HDD attached I’ve got enough storage for whatever.

  Building a home lab server from components is only a good idea if you have some really specific use case not covered by cheap imports…

  I’m actually planning to do just about that, based on the discussion in this thread.

  I found that I can get an unmanaged switch with 4 2.5gbe ports for under $60, I can use my existing cabling at that speed. I’ll upgrade my aging router to an x86 (n100 or similar) and load my favorite router distro on it. Use that as the router, connect Wi-Fi APs (might even use the eero they give me that way).

  I’ll upgrade my systems on the Ethernet using USB dongles (several options at around $20 each)

  I’m feeling that improving much beyond 2.5 internally is a bit of a waste at this point.

  Thanks to all posters in this thread!

  At this stage I don’t know - but they seem to describe a setup where they are essentially providing a WiFi 7 router as an access point, which connects to another piece of hardware acting as the gateway

  Ezee fiber is the ISP. Eero max 7 WiFi

  Interesting point about cg nat. With my current ISP setup I get an actual (dynamic) ip4 address and ip6 thru 6rd. Can I still point my domain to the nat’d address?
