Hi all
Been pouring over YouTube but I think that has confused me more than anything due to this being a market I do not know very well.
Im looking to acquire a TMM PC for cheap but will let me expand in ways that may not be typical for older PCs. I do not want to spend a lot so maybe this isn't realistic.
This will run a bunch of smaller home services (not a firewall) like a reverse proxy, syslog, IoT bridges, etc. I may run Proxmox at a future date.
Requirements:
It seems every (older) model from Dell, HP, Lenovo, etc have something missing or they are all newer models and cost 600+.
Appreciate the help!

Requirements:
- Low cost, around 200-300 max ideally (used is fine)
- Intel based 8500T (35w) or newer
- 2x m.2 NVME slots
- Upgradable to 2.5GbE (or 10 Gb SFP or GbE would be even better).
- Seperate ssd for boot drive.
