Hey Andy, the HP Microserver was one of the options I am looking at but the
CPU has me slightly worried as it will need to deal with running a
minecraft server as well as VMs and various other tasks. Would it handle
all of this very well?


How many people will be playing minecraft at once?

I have a minecraft server on my N36L with 8GB RAM. It works fine for me and the kids, but would probably not be able to cope with a whole heap of users on it.

I added an internal disk in the optical bay and an external 8-bay enclosure and mini-PCI express bringing it to 13 disks in total attached. Fun times :)
