Just got a couple 8GB DDR4 SIMs via Aliexpress for ~ $20 which have boosted my old home server from 8GB->24GB meaning I can host a bunch more cool stuff on it! It's worth spending a little on existing hardware to give it more utility rather than replacing them. It's also a great thing about Linux that you can run it on *anything* - there's no profit-motivated planned obsolescence as there is with proprietary computer systems.
