Will this be overkill or otherwise not recommended for someone who is new and just starting to learn?
My goal is to have something I can grow into, but initially I'd like to host a few VMs, game servers, and a have place to store content. I'd also like to host a PLEX server in the future as well but might buy a separate piece of hardware for it specifically down the road. Thanks in advance for taking the time to help a newbie!
Elaborate on this? I was under the impression that enterprise often had way less anti-user shit you see with consumer hardware, as well as being much more reliable long-term.
What are the pros of consumer hardware, other than the obvious formfactor/heat/noise/power? (Genuinely asking, I'm very new to this space)
