Popular Hardware for Self Hosters? (lemmy.world)

I dusted off my RPI4 and started tinkering with self-hosting things and it's sparked a fire. Suddenly I have 7 docker containers running and I need more RAM, more space and I want something reliable with room to grow. I like small form factors but it doesn't need to be RPI small. Any recs for your favorite hardware under $500?

That's about what I was expecting. Yours is running about 30W higher than mine, but that's still a hell of a delta.

Thanks for the other points as well! NIC quantity will be an issue since I will be moving my esx over, but hopefully I can limp by on a single line and let VLAN tagging handle most of my mess. I've been running some of my VMs via iscsi storage, and it performs well enough for my uses at home.
