Recommendations for a SFF backup server

Hi folks, I’m considering setting up an offsite backup server and am seeking recommendations for a smallish form factor PC. Mainly, are there some suitable popular second hand PCs which meet the following requirements:

  • fits 4x 3.5" HDD
  • Smaller than a regular tower (e.g. mATX or ITX)
  • Equipped with a 6th of 7th gen Intel CPU at least (for power efficiency and transcoding, in case I want it to actually to some transcoding) with video output.
  • Ideally with upgradeable RAM

Do you know of something which meets those specs and is rather common on the second hand market?

Thanks!

I don’t think you’ll find an SFF that’ll hold multiple 3.5" drives. Many regular desktops won’t hold that many drives.
