My main server is a HP Microserver gen 8 with a passively cooled Xeon (don't remember which atm), 16GB of RAM. By computer standards it's pretty old. (That generation was made from 2013 to 2015, iirc). I still tried the AIO docker container installed on Unraid. Beyond the difficulties with initial setup, it ran really poorly.
