My Intel NUC server just died (whenever it’s plugged in, it makes a buzzing noise, and the external power LED is off (the internal one is on tho)), so I need a new server box. Any recommendations?

I can salvage the RAM (16 GB DDR4) and hard drive (1TB HDD) off of this one, I believe.

    Pretty much all of mine are just tiny/mini/micros. The stack of 6 or so in my rack power everything I run (aside from my desktop, but I do have Linux vms and a Mac mini for app builds).

    No issues so far.

    Storage is all on my NAS, one for things like media server content, my dev work, pictures, etc, and one that’s a backup to that NAS. Only thing remote is my second level of backup.

    8th gen Intel and up is pretty great for proxmox IMO.
