Finally Getting Back Into Home Labs

Hi everyone,
Looks like after years of not owning a server I am back in the home labs game. Ngl it happened by mistake but it's a happy one.

These are the current set up. I just got them yesterday. Google Search Appliance (R710) which I am yet to power on because I have been working on my other server which is a IBM X3650 M4. I did clean the google one so I could have it on display in my home office until I find time to play with it.

Both with 64GB of ram.

IBM is set up with TrueNAS CE & 2x Intel Xeon CPU E5-2690

What are peoples opinions on them?

Also I am planning on using the IBM for Jellyfin and other things like VMs
The google one I might just host a site on it.

--------------------

Please note I have not decided what to do with the google server yet.
Also the IBM M4 is the main server. It is gonna replace my digital ocean VPS's.
The hydro for the M4 is something I am not concerned with because it's still much cheaper than the DO.

Also I am processing OSM data rn which is massive. So yes I am using all 16 cores at the moment. This is a fun hobby to me. It also has a hobby budget. I also have a business expense budget allocated to it. $30-$50 a month on hydro is fortunately not of concern to me. I prefer having overkill and fun rather than saving on hydro.
