I have a few ThinkServer TS140s with 16GB of RAM (each) running around 6 VMs each (Ubuntu, Debian, Server 2012). Low power draw and quiet as shit.

u/OliverTw1st · 2 pointsr/homelab

I would get the Xeon version: http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00FE29IWK/ref=mp_s_a_1_3?qid=1426522495&sr=8-3&keywords=thinkserver&pi=AC_SY200_QL40

Edit: also buy the RAM separately. It's cheaper than the upgrade options.

Why not consider one of these? I'm debating the same or buying a refurb workstation that I can load up with esxi to use for plex and my home lab.

u/Feltz- · 2 pointsr/PleX

Intel xeon e3 thinkserver, add a few more sticks of ecc ram, a few wd red hdds and /r/freenas and you've got one hell of a plex machine and then some.

u/praetor- · 2 pointsr/HomeServer

I've been shopping too, and I can't find a better deal than the ThinkServer TS130.

The CPU alone is $225, so for $100 you get a case, PSU, motherboard and 4gb of ram.

Another 16gb of ram is $180 roughly.

So, if you can swing a little bit of extra cash:

This is down to 397 from 450. Quad core xeon, but does not include a harddrive. You can grab a 1TB (if that is sufficient) for 60 bucks.

All three compared.

It's also incredibly quiet, and my kill-a-watt says it likes to idle at 20.8 watts, load is allegedly 50W but i have not yet gone up to watch while it's transcoding.

Barebone system, Passmark near 7,000 for $329.00

Just needs hard drives, OS (Linux), and more RAM depending on usage.

But I haven't even unboxed it yet, so I have nothing to offer in terms of reviews or feedback.

u/natrlselection · 1 pointr/homelab

I'm planning to post in /r/homelab about my build, but I basically got it running for a bit over $1K. I use it at work too, and really wanted to mess around with my own stuff. It's been a fun project so far, I'm really glad I did it.

Basically, I bought:

> Lenovo ThinkServer TS140 with a Xeon processor - $330
>
>32GB of ram - $330
>
>RAID card - $190
>
>2X SATA drives - $150 ($75 each)
>
>ESXi supported NIC - $59
>
>Cable to connect SATA drives to the RAID card - $26
>

Total came to $1,085(before tax).

I'm pretty glad I did this.

I saw these recommended. Not sure the differences between xenon and i3

This one I chose i3 + 8gb ram for 279.

Will these stream 4k?

u/Sqwertyu · 1 pointr/hardwareswap

Cool. How hot does the box get? I have one of these http://www.amazon.com/Lenovo-ThinkServer-70A4001LUX-E3-1225-Processor/dp/B00FE29IWK with 32GB of ECC ram in it. Would you be interested in a trade + cash? It's basically brand new.

u/Mumrahte · 1 pointr/PleX

These little PC's are ok but for:

Client I would probably rather get one of those 120$ intel stick PC's.


Server Either a low end server like this
or a NUC or a self built HTPC

u/THECOACH0742 · 1 pointr/homelab

If you are in the US, amazon has them on sale.

u/rotll · 1 pointr/PleX

Lenovo Thinkserver from Amazon. The first review goes into a lot of detail on how well this works as a PLEX server, so you might be interested in seeing that to help you decide.

I was looking at this ThinkServer:

There is a cheaper i3 version available (linked on that page), and one with a 500gb hard drive.

I would recommend using VMWare ESXI to virtualize some of your stuff so you can move it around more easily.

Hard drives: One smaller drive of any type, but SSD would be the best if expensive choice, to run your OS. For your media storage, WD Reds, size of your choice.
