I have the C1, and I used to use it as a wordpress server and NAS, I bought it as an upgrade to the pi3, but it was not stable, and i replaced it with a pi4. I would like to get a H1 ultra as an aio homelab solution. Proxmox running pfsense, pihole, owncloud, wordpress and whatever else i fancy playing with. It has the 2 2.5gb ethernet ports, perfect for being a DHCP server and firewall (and more), 4 sata ports for a few HDDs to keep all the owncloud data I want to have accessible while away from home, and plenty of ram and cpu power to keep my website snappy, and responsive, which is the biggest complaint I have from my wife, who spend s her time uploading photos for the family. My wordpress is currently hosted on a oracle free tier instance, with sshfs access to my Nas, but i want to bring it back in house.

No price details, but unless it’s seriously cheaper than the odroid h4 ultra, I’ll have the odroid.

I’m in and out of the bathroom in less than 15, time spent in the shower is as little as 3, but generally between 5 and 8 minutes. Male, I shave at the sink, short hair. If you’re in the shower doing tertiary tasks, I hope you at least, only run the water when you need to .

The ROI is long term, and not sure if it would actually happen, considering potential mechanical failure. My best plan for a high ROI is to put a hydraulic solar panel on the roof. Just need to get round to it, so many other jobs taking priority at the moment.

Nothing like going into a rough pub in Sheffield, and having the landlord ask, “what’ll it be love?”

My moment of clarity was after watching some kids wellbeing videos by Dr Gabor Maté

Take my upvote. I use owncloud, I have no need for apps on my self hosted cloud backup.

Probably would, but raspberry pi OS is the sensible choice for stability and support
