Agreed, I very well might give that a go!
Already got an H4+ running an OPNSense firewall (last weekend's project!) and it's barely breaking a sweat at 2.5Gbps!
Although the processor claims to top out at 16GB RAM, folks have been able to use up to 48GB DDR5 SODIMMs 🙂
and ofc, a full M.2 slot as well!
