Comprehensive list of viable pfSense chassis/barebones?

[oguruma]

I'm looking to build a pfSense box for my second house. I'm trying to decide what my best option would be for the chassis...

Does anybody know of a comprehensive write-up of viable chassis/barebones computers that are worth considering (other than the usual actors like Supermicro et all)?

First place I would have a look at the Netgate store if there
will be something (devices) matching your needs or according to your whole situation. If not you could;

• Devices from the Netgate store
• Qotom mini PCs on Alibaba
• HSIPC devices on amazon.xy
• older Intel J1900 devices on eBay
• used Atom till Xeon E3 servers at eBay or refurbished elsewhere

There will be for sure something that is matching your budget and fitting your needs. But without knowing
your entire use case or installation you will do, we are all
only doing guesswork here. So perhaps you may provide us with some more informations about your usage case!?

• Internet speed, provider
• DSL, VDSL, Fiber,.....
• Packets for installation like snort, Squid & SquidGuard,
  pfBlocker-NG, ClamAV, cellular,.......
• OpnVPN, WireGuard or plain IPSec?
