Current planned use cases are Pi Hole, Bitwarden (password manager) server, probably general network storage and torrenting, whatever other “homelab” things I think of later (which is why the specs probably seem a bit overkill)

Lenovo ThinkCentre mini desktop, eBay refurbished, $184 before tax
8GB RAM, 500GB SSD
Intel Core i5 6th Gen. (they don’t specify but I’m assuming it’s a 6000 series, which was released in 2016)

    Good idea to get an enterprise mini PC but that one’s overpriced! You should be able to get at least an 8th gen processor for that price.
