Howdy folks,

I’ve come upon a solid amount of 4tb drives, 8 SAS drives for dirt cheap from a local biz. Never used. I saw a HP ProLiant DL385p Gen8 Server on eBay for $80 and thought it was a score since it had been the best deal. I’d been wanting to upgrade off my think center m710. Curious any recommendations for this? My current setup is as follows:

Main server:

Lenovo think center m710

16gb, gt 1030, 2 4tb HDD sata, one 500gb ssd sata

Ubuntu lts

Docker compose

Arr stack -Gluetun with open on proton in Germany -qbittorrent -sonarr -radarr -Overseer -cleanuparr -prowlarr -plex -navidrome -audiobookshelf -Minecraft server (modded: neoforge itzg) -immich -bunch of others that aren’t fully working like tatuli or plex wrapped

Secondary Thinkpad x220 (loved this shit through college) 16gbRAM, 250ssd sata Arch Docker compose -searxng -pihole dns

I’m still looking in to some security system ideas as I’d like to use some storage and maybe do that with some of it. Or some cybersecurity projects or a banned book library or something. I’m open to any suggestions to help this go as smooth as I can make it and as fun as it can be.

Power is something i'm taking in to account, and thankfully isn't too much to worry with around my area. Though I had received the server and i've now learned about SAS formfactors, so this one needs to go back since my drives are 3.5" and the proliant takes 2.5" and I didn't see it on the ebay page. live and learn. back to drawing board of research.
