CPU: ARM Cortex-A72 (BCM2711) @ 1.5 GHz
RAM: 2 GiB LPDDR4
Storage: 32 GiB µSDHC
Storage: 8 TB Western Digital HDD
OS: Debian 12 (Bookworm)

Mainboard: Supermicro A2SDI-8C-HLN4F
CPU: Intel Atom C3758 @ 2.2 GHz (25 W TDP)
RAM: 64 GiB (4× 16 GiB 2400MHz DDR4 DIMM ECC)
Storage: 2× 1 TB Samsung SSD 870 Evo (RAID 1) for system and virtual machines
Storage: 3× 4 TB Western Digital HDD (RAID 5) for data (photos, music, videos)
OS: Debian 12 (Bookworm)

In use since early 2018, with an HDD → SSD upgrade for the system RAID performed in 2022.

The mainboard's out of band management interface has already saved my arse several times. Apart from that, it's not the best build – the Intel Atom CPUs don't really have a stellar performance-to-watt ratio (as in, these days, you can get far better CPUs with basically the same or even better average power draw).
