Despite being 13 years old, I use it as NAS with Unraid and works great. Not for computing of course, for that I have a HP EliteDesk Mini.

Just retired mine after a 12 year run. It was running XignaNas (formerly Nas4free) with zfs on 5 disks off an LSI logic card. I’ve replaced the fan and powersupply and upgraded the disks twice. I also have an iLO card in mine. Real workhorse of a machine.
Replaced it with Unraid last week with 30tb of disk on a Core i5 proc. Looking forward to being able to host some additional services (docker,VMs) that I couldn’t host on my microserver.
