Core 2 duo processor 4gb RAM (which I can easily upgrade) 160gb HD (which I’ll certainly change for a 1TB SSD

I would use It as a file server, maybe with nextcloud. It is Just for myself maybe S.O.

    Check to see how many SATA power connections are available. My Optiplex 3620 only has four and I wasn’t confident that I could expand that without overwhelming the PSU. I bought a 24 to 8 pin adapter so I could use a normal non-proprietary power supply.

    Consider those costs if you’re thinking you might install a lot of drives.
