Tired of my dual Xeon PowerEdge sucking 300 watts 24/7 and murdering my power bill. What's some good NON-enterprise hardware that can handle ESXi 8 reliably?
I am kind of thinking of maybe a 12th gen i7/i9 Optiplex and slapping a quad port Intel NIC in it. Does this sound good? Will ESXi complain about anything here?…
I want to buy this Dell optiplex for 50 euros upgrade it a little bit with some parts that i have and turn it into my first home lab is it a good idea?
