Just wanting to know if this would be able to run a small nas mainly for holding films, tv shows and music and then using use for a plex/jellyfin. As well as a few other docker containers. Would the best os for this use case be unraid and their apps feature or would proxmox be best and then run everything virtualised or something else?

(I would upgrade the amount of RAM)

    I use a Optiplex 3060 now (though about to sell it), same processor, upgraded to 64GB of ram (yes it works, even though the spec sheet says 32GB max). I’ve been running 4 VMs and about a dozen containers with no trouble.

    The biggest downsides are lack of SATA ports for connecting a lot of drives, and only a single 1GB nic.

    If the price is right, it is a great low power server.
