@x4740N Considering Home Assistant runs well on a RPi4 or above (unless you want to have Home Assistant Voice, for that Nabu Casa recommends an N150 class CPU or above), that's the baseline I'm going to go with.I believe an HP Mini might tick all the boxes for you. I'd go with a G3 or up, though a G2 should also work.Check for specifics on the model, but the Minis have a socketed CPU (7th or 8th-gen Intel in the case of the G3), most frequently of the T variant (35W TDP, instead of the usual 65W), with fairly low idle power draw (should be under 10W).You have 2 SODIMM slots, up to 64GB of RAM, one SATA 2.5'' drive bay, and depending on the model, one or two NVMe slots for SSDs.You also have space for a WiFi card (most of the ones I've come across don't have that, or the antennas, installed, but there is an NVMe slot for it).And most importantly, it has an internal speaker. Not a good one, but one. 1/2
