Finally put to the old Dell out to pasture! The HD was in dire need of an upgrade so the decision was made to go with new hardware all around.
The new hardware purchased from Amazon:
Beelink Mini PC, AMD Ryzen 7 5825U
Crucial RAM 64GB Kit
Crucial P3 4TB PCIe Gen3 3D NAND NVMe M.2 SSD
I would have purchased a Server One right from Start 9 but they were put of stock at the time I was shopping around!
For the install, I went with Proxmox VE 8.3.2 following Cyph3rp9nk Guide to building a Bitcoin Super Node and I used start9dave suggestion on how the Best way to migrate from one pc to another using the Transfer Data to a New Drive guide .
Everything went smoothly on the new hardware/software side and the only issue I ran into was with my Tor Browser on my remote PC.
I was able to connect to most of my running services over the Tor network with the exception of the main server login. All that would show up is a blank, white screen.
Long story short, I wound up reinstalling the Tor Browser and Tor service on my PC and now all seems fine!
My reasoning for installing StartOS on top of Proxmox is for experimenting with hardware redundancy / high availability / geo-redundancy.
Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.
HAPPY NEW YEAR TO ALL!!!
