I’ve started running a Proxmox VE node on an Intel NUC to phase out my Dell PowerEdge server. The NUC is low-powered, efficient, and most importantly, quiet—perfect for my day-to-day needs without the constant hum of the PowerEdge. The NUC handles the lightweight workloads like a champ, so I only power up the PowerEdge for larger projects now.
BorkNUC Specs:
- OS: Proxmox VE
- CPU: Intel i5
- RAM: 16GB
- SSD: 256GB
The switch has made my setup quieter, cooler, and more energy-efficient.
