Recommendation for Proxmox Server
Minisforum MS-01 Why this over the MS-A2? This has intel iGPU great for plex emby etc. Also you can use SR-IOV and slice the iGPU up and pass a slices to different VMs. You can do this with the AMD iGPU. I this box you get 3xNVMe 2xSFP+ Low profile PCIe slot (great for small gpu or HBA and run a who

Comunitate homelab romania
Eu de ex am pus un minisforum ms-01 cu proxmox/opnsense, ca router, si un minisforum ms-a2 cu 128gb ddr5/12tb nvme tot cu proxmox pt gazduit diverse servicii. Am ales modelele astea pt ca au 2x2.5 + 2x10g sfp, consuma putin, stocare buna, poti pune si un intel arc pt encode in jellyfin etc.

hardware for self made firewall
Get a minisforum MS-01/02 it has 2 x 10gb (X710)sftp ports, and 2x 2.5 gbit utp. You can get with intel(01) or AMD (02) cpu's. It's small and performs perfectly. Only the battery fails after some time, so when it does not boot anymore. Just replace the battery, 3 min work. I use opnsense on proxmox.

ISP upgraded to 10 Gbit looking for Hardware with SFP+ WAN port (recommendations?)
The MINISFORUM MS-01 Mini Workstation Core i9-12900H is $470 on Amazon and it has two ports for 10gb and two 2.5gb nics. The processor is a bit overkill. They also have a MINISFORUM MS-01 Mini Workstation Core i5-12600H for $400.

Low Power, lower performant, quiet, enterprise-ish class server lines
for hyper-v with a handful of DCs and light VMs, three tiers that all stay quiet: top pick: Minisforum MS-01. i13900H or i9-13900H, dual 10GbE + dual 2.5GbE, dual m.2 NVMe + one u.2 slot, takes 96GB DDR5 SO-DIMM. idles around 15W, ramps to 40W under actual load. ~$700 barebones or $1100 with 32GB/1T

Advice needed for Ultimate Cloud Gaming Setup (4K @ 120Hz) - Mini PC Hardware + 10Gb Home Networking
The GeForce now network requirements are quite modest. I don’t think you need to upgrade anything but run cat6 if you want to enjoy 10Gb for downloading other things. You’ll need to upgrade any network switches and clients if you want to have full 10Gb. I recommend Unifi network equipment. For a com

Is a base M4 Mac Mini for a Plex server a waste of money? Or even crazier, the Gabe Cube?
If you're gonna splurge anyway, get the minisforum ms-01. It's not that much bigger and you get 4 Intel nics, with 2 of them being 10gbit sfp+ ports, 3 nvme slots and a pcie slot.

NFS+mergerfs+qbittorrent
Must be some issues with your setup / NFS server. I used to seed 4500 Torrents with r torrent over an 150 TB NFS share (8 * 20 tb USB 10 Gbit Attached to an Minisforum ms-01 with 10 Gbit Connection, clients are connected via 2.5 Gbit) no issues, 250 mb/s + transfer rate. The TCP overhead is so ridic

Anyone experience connection issues with the Beelink S12 Pro Mini PC & the Terramaster D6-320?
I ended up finding a Minisforum MS-01 with the i5-12600H locally for super cheap and it works great! The Terramaster is connected to the USB port and everything is good so far. All I did to upgrade was move my nvme drives over and connected my USB devices (and turned off Secure Boot) and everything

Suggestions for budget mini PC build for TrueNAS.
Assuming you want all NVMe storage, the MINISFORUM MS-01-S1260 fits your requirements. Dual SFP+ ports, so you'd need to get an RJ-45 SFP+ Transceiver. 3 NVMe m.2 2280 slots.
