I decided what to do with my wife's old Asus Essentio computer: I'm turning it into a virtual server.
In this video, I'm using some parts I had laying around to plug into this PC. Unfortunately, I ran in to a little problem with a screw - you'll see how I handle the problem.
Enjoy!

I'm looking at it, along with ESXI. I'm partial to ESXI since it's used at my job. I'll see what happens.

I've never considered using a virtual server before, but from what you explained, it sounds pretty interesting! Can't wait to see how everything turns out. :D

It will take some time - my schedule is always pretty packed. I'll be sure to post a video when it's all done.

Proxmox is on the list, for sure. I played around a bit with ESXI and I'm looking at VirtualBox as well.

If there's something I seem to have a lot of, it's extra computers.
