Hi everyone, i recently found a dusty hp elite desk in a friends garage, 8gb ram 120gb ssd. Dusted it off and today i installed Ubuntu connected remotely and installed docker and ran my first container on it.
I use a few of these for testing, and one as my proxmox backup server with additional SSD attached. As long as they are used online with their specs they are little power houses and cheap enough on auction sites.
