Curious what you've got installed on it. What do you use a lot but took awhile to find? What do you recommend?

I used to have a NAS, ended up moving towards a mini server instead. The flexibility has been really worth it for me, and I run a JBOD enclosure for extra disks so that I can handle backups and media files.

I'm running an ASRock Deskmini. It has a variety of flaws, but it works surprisingly well and has been basically stable. It's tiny, and it can get a decent heatsink and fan upgrade on top. I'm running a Ryzen CPU in it. It runs all of my self-hosting stuff.
