🚀 My homelab setup:
HP EliteDesk 800 G4 SFF
Proxmox + TrueNAS SCALE + Start9
500GB NVMe, 2TB SSD, 2x HDD
6 cores / 32GB RAM
⚡ Power usage: just 23–24W on average → ~209 kWh/year.
💶 That’s ~€60/year at €0.29/kWh.
24/7 self-hosting with VMs + storage for the cost of a Netflix subscription. Not bad. 😎

Are the SSDs and HDDs connected externally?
No, actually all drives fit inside. That's why I got this case. It has room for 2x 3.5 inch, 2x 2.5 inch and 2x m2.
Can I ask which case are you using?
It's the original case of the HP EliteDesk 800 G4 SFF (small form factor)
I didn’t expect it was so big, I thought it was smaller
This looks nice. I might have to add another node with this setup.
