I am looking to replace running esxi 5.5 on celeron 847 with two crappy realtek onboard NICs.
my cheap candidates:
1) Intel J 1800 + dual NIC intel ( only pci-e X1 connected due on J1800/J1900 design)
2) Intel J 1900
3) AMD A4-5000 + dual NIC intel ( Yes.... pci-e X4...)
I plan to replace with more muscle-umph but still keep low-power consumption that will be running:
1)Running IP COP ( or IP FIRE) with whitelisting, proxy, DHCP server, openVPM and other services(do not remember at this time).
2) Running 2-3 mostly idle debian/ubuntu server for my quick errand/housekeeping that running 24/7
3) running additional VMs For testing purposes.
Still deciding to move to proxmox or stay with esxi, since I have move one machine successfully from esxi 5 to proxmox 3.4
any input are welcomed .
thanks!
