Hi all, after being inspired by the TinyMiniMicro series, I'm thinking of diving in with two Dell OptiPlex 3070 Micro's, I've found refurbished online.
I plan on running Proxmox on them, and I'd like to expand them with an additional 2.5Gb ethernet port.
I'm struggling to know if its posible though, and if so whats appropriate.
Online searches give me things like, this, but I'm not sure if they are compatible or even suitable for this box and proxmox.
Does anyone have any experience with the Dell 3070's or similar who could lead me in the right direction.
UK based, looking at 3070 with i5, 256BG Nvme, 16GB ram for £280, so also I guess, anyone know if theres better UK deals to be had.
I see the equivilent Lenovo's seem to go cheaper, but I'm not keen on the propriety, and odd power connector.
