I've been really tempted to start up my own server to run my own nodes, to run NextCloud, etc.

Start9 seems like a solid option, but ordering from North America and shipping here to Asia sounds like a headache. Especially considering customs charges and hold-ups by domestic post.

I know that Start9 has their own guides online, but I'm curious to hear from those that have used their OS themselves. Have any of you techie nostriches managed to set the OS up on your own hardware? What has your experience been?

If possible, I'm leaning towards using a humble mini-PC to install the OS and designating an external SSD (maybe 6TB or so) as the storage option. Anyone know if this would work decently well?
