From top to bottom
HP Elitedesk 800 G5 - Core i7-9700T 8 core, 16GB RAM, dual 256 GB nvme ssds
2x HP Elitedesk 800 G4 - Core i5-8500T, 16GB RAM, 256GB nvme SSD and 960GB Enterprise Sata 2.5" ssd
Dell Optiplex 5050 - Core i5- 7something, 32GB RAM, 256GB Sata m.2, 4TB WD Blue - This is my plex server atm.
HP Prodesk 600 G4 - Core i5-8500, 32GB RAM, 512GB m.2 NVMe - Just a testing machine atm, may be added to Proxmox cluster.
The HP mini pcs are my new Proxmox cluster. I’m setting up a few Windows Server VMs to learn some stuff for work. Other ideas are in the pipe, but I want to figure out some stuff in the Windows Server world first.
Very cool. Small but very mighty.
I got one of the Elitedesk mini PCs with a Ryzen 2400ge in it but was never able to get the bios to save any of my settings so I couldn’t disable secure boot. So it’s going to get turned into a chock block for my snow blower.
Honestly, these little things are great!
FYI - you can get 2.5GbE cards that slot into the WiFi slot on the motherboard and pig-tail a line out one of the antenna ports.
I use the 1 GbE ethernet card in wifi slot with the elitedesk, then replace the vga removable port with 3d printed module in thingiverse to fit the ethernet port output. Quite a saver than having to find mini pc that support 2 GbE ethernet and a good processor which is more expensive (not to mention unknown bios support).
