Hi,
I am planning to setup a home servering can get a remote desktop on via the webinterface Guacamole. I havehadit ona huge Servet before but this Time I really need it to Bea fanless server.
I need 32gb+ of ram and at least 1tb SSD. Enough CPU power to serve a linux desktop running in lxd via a quacamole in a docker image.
Any recommendationsfor good hardware that isnt crazy expensive?
Even a raspberry pi can run linux with an lxd desktop, and this i3 is a few times faster than a raspberry pi. But it depends on what you want to with it…
Then you probably don’t need 32 GB RAM, unless you’ve measured actual in-use RAM and found that you need it. Halve it to 16 GB and you’ll probably find more options.
Correction, Raspberry pi zero can run lxd, been there done that. So if that’s all OP wants a $10 computer should do it, he really needs to be more specific.

I need it for normal desktop use. Email, coding, browsing (no gaming)
