I built a lower power, efficient, and silent server! Although this server is small and efficient, it's still powerful enough to run Proxmox with multiple virtual machines like pfSense as my router, TrueNAS as my NAS, Ubuntu Server running Portainer with lots of Docker containers, and I have even passed through the hardware and video card to a Virtual Machine and turned this into a Desktop, all while transcoding Plex streams!
