Hey all, been wanting to get into self hosting for a while. I won’t be doing a whole lot - probably just a Plex server and photo/video archives.

Maybe a personal assistant if I get really bored, lol.

At work, I’ve got a selected of taking either:

  • HP Prodesk 400 G4 - i5 7th Gen

OR

  • Dell Optiplex 7020
  • Dell Optiplex 3010
  • Dell Optiplex 3040 All Intel i5

Let me know if they’re all shit too, lol.

Many thanks

    This seems like asking someone to do your google homework for you. :P Just google that shit and get the specs yourself.

      Well sort of, but it’s more that sometimes there’s nuances to the tech that makes things better or worse, like people will say oh well Linux hosting works best on a post-(year) intel chip or whatever.

      Youre right though, I should’ve added the full specs and asked questions based off that. I was just hastily posting from inside the cellar at work.

      I have now googled regardless and I’m gonna take the Optiplex 7020
