Fair enough. There are no rules for homelab; do what you want!
Out of curiosity, are you running a repurposed 1L OEM box? I’ve picked up a handful of those for dirt cheap, and they’re kinda fun to play around with!
not the one you were replying to, but I'm 2/3 thru switching my servers over to the 1L form factor and am liking it. it's amazing how much compute can be crammed into a tiny space these days.
Close enough! I'm using a HP z230 SFF, not as small as those 1L USFF, but pretty practical for a small homeserver, have a couple of PCI-E slots to expand, can hold 2x HDD (if you count replacing 5,25 optical drive with a tray) or multiple SSD wherever they fit. Pretty happy with this build, day-to-day it draws about ~18-50W from the wall, depends on load.
