I have seen a few times people suggest used SFF pcs like a dell optiflex as a replacement for a raspberry pi. Is there anything to look for specifically or ones to get/avoid? I have searched this sub and have not found anything that was recently suggested. Right now just looking for something to run home assistant and frigate. Down the road may add more.
This is the master reference thread for Lenovo Tiny https://forums.servethehome.com/index.php?threads/lenovo-thinkcentre-thinkstation-tiny-project-tinyminimicro-reference-thread.34925/
Patrick has alot of other writeups on the STH main site.
Personally my preference is Lenovo P330 or M720q:
There’s also the HP T740 which also supports a PCIe card, but is a bit taller than 1U
Good to know thank you!
