I wanted also a small, energy efficient server for CI at home. I was looking at SBCs (Single Board Computers) like Raspberri Pi and now others. Most are ARM based and max out at 2Gb or 4Gb RAM. I ended up buying an Odroid H2, which is x86 and takes up to 32GB RAM. I just received it so haven't put it together yet... also depends what you want to do with it how much you want to spend, I bought 32GB RAM, 1TB nvme and 6TB SATA HDD and plan to run everything on containers (docker). Also instead of say, Gitlab, Jenkins and Artifactory I think I'll use Gitea, Drone.io self hosted and I was looking at strongbox instead of Artifactory but not sure if it's production ready.

- gorbachev 7y agoWhat kind of enclosure are you using for it? I currently use a server I built inside a Fractal Node 304 case for that same purpose. While compact for a regular PC type server, it's still a little bulky for my liking.
