Could you buy a used corporate SFF off of ebay instead of building a new rig? Maybe an optiplex, Dell 12-core, Thinkcenter, or some sort of multi-core mini micro? You could even buy 4-cores but cluster 3 of them together to make 12. That’s Docker’s best use case, mobilizing your VMs across a cluster of machines. I’m not sure what you need but this is a lot of power and cost. You could start really really small with an Unraid and Plex server to dip your toes in, and then you’d have an idea about hardware and expanding your power incrimentally.

Yeah I thought I deleted this later that day because it was criminally expensive and I don’t know what my just waking up brain was thinking… It was definitely stupid amount of money being thrown at a problem I even didn’t quite have. Thanks for your response!
