Hey guys,
I am looking to build a new PFsense server. Ideally I want 10GB LAN and 1GB for the internet.
I have been quoted for the following system:
Barebones System with Atom C3858 and A2SDi-TP8F Board
Samsung 16GB DDR4 2400Mhz UDIMM
Samsung PM953 128GB M.2 PCIe NVMe SSD
£ 1,274.34
I have three Xeon-D based systems and I am huge fan of them. The Xeon-D works out the same however it will be older gen Xeon-D 1541 etc.. and the Atom's are newer.
The only issue is the ATOM systems are not supported by PFSense just yet.
So I was hoping if anyone could think of alternatives.... I could build a Intel i5/3 based system and buy a 10GB ethernet card as alternative etc...
I need the 10GB to be base-T not SFP+ based.
Looking forward to hearing what everything thinks...
