DIY Intel N100 Rackmount OPNsense Router Firewall (or Lightweight Server)!
Let's build an Intel N100 2U rackmount system that can be used for OPNsense or as a lightweight server!
If you are looking to build a custom, energy efficient, rackmount system, this video shows one example you could consider!
I plan to use this build in a future video when I do an updated full network build guide.
In the long term, I plan to use 2 of these rackmount systems as 2.5/10G throughput testing clients on my network since I do not have extra mini-PCs with 10G interfaces for testing new hardware (because those systems are powering my main network and lab network!).
Disclosure: This is not a sponsored video! I bought or already owned the hardware used in this project.

You may wish to purchase the network interfaces from Aliexpress since they are likely cheaper than getting them off Amazon (affiliate links below):
