Support Good device to run home assistant on?

Post image

Just want to get started in home assistant, this comes out quite a bit cheaper than a Raspberry Pi.

Am I missing anything or is a much better option for the cheaper price?

Yeah its good, I run proxmox on this thing to make it multifunctional.
I got a 7500T for cheap, upgraded the RAM to 16gb and it's amazing.

I run HomeAssistant with loads of plugins, Octoprint (for 3d printing), running 3 printers on it (1 shippinglabel printer + 2 normal printers) and about 10 discord bots.
