@Richard Hancox this is one thing I miss about mini PC class gear is the lack of enterprise out of band management. With my Supermicros, I remember one day I had an ESXi host crash and was able to completely reload it with a fresh installation of ESXi being hundreds of miles away. I thought to myself then, this is why you have out of band management 😁
