I love minisforum and all things mini pcs. To add to parents great idea, this is 70 bucks more (currently $320 versus $390 for this on Amazon US) and it's an 8 core ryzen and 32gigbs of ram so will handle a lot more: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0BFBNDVW8?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0BFBNDVW8?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_... Not affiliate, just anecdotal, just purchased this for myself this last fall and its fast and cheap and I feel the best current value from mini pc's at sub 400. The ones at 600-1000 cost are just incrementally better from this one's specs so I feel it's the sweet spot at $390. So your server can be much much beefier for not much more. I may even be running a GPU externally on this :)
