I am thinking about getting a small/fanless/low-power box to run NetBSD for router/firewall/dhcp/named home assistant/mqtt/pgsql nextcloud unifi some other stuff and some other stuff. But no display, no 'desktop'. Most of this is now running on an apu2 with 4G of RAM, but it's a little slow, and not quite enough RAM if I add things, and PC Engines isn't making new products. Certainly needs 2, would be nice to have 3 or 4 network interfaces. GbE is good enough for this iteration. I'd like 500G of real SSD at least, some USB3 ports, 12VDC power. I am not excited about arm, because of software hassles with some things, and because it seems often they aren't the kind of industrial build I want. So no RPI. But if there were an aarch64 box with multiple GbE, 32-64G of RAM, multiple cores, solid box, that would be interesting too. The Protectli Vault https://protectli.com/ looks promising, and I wonder if anyone has run NetBSD on it (would run 10, amd64 of course) anyone has anything good or bad to say. I haven't asked protectli support yet. I know someone who runs some kind of GNU/Linux on it and is happy. Thanks, Greg
