I have an Intel NUC, particularly the NUC8i5BEH I got off eBay. Unofficially supports up to 64GB of memory and has NVMe and SATA for storage. Small footprint and sips power. I currently use mine to run ESXi with a few VMs on it, sits in a cupboard and had no issues with it. Probably a bit more expensive than a small form factor PCs from the likes of Dell or Lenovo for others have suggested though.
Do you know how much they are? Some family was showing me some. However, they were around 1.7K USD
I was watching one recently on eBay with 16 GB RAM and 1 TB SSD that went for 200 GBP. I'd go secondhand, not brand new. Anything new that an 8th gen intel CPU, ideally quad core should be enough to get you started.
