Building a new pfsense firewall

Hello fellow pfsense devotees!

I am building a new, quiet, pfsense firewall for my home. My current pfsense firewall is running on an older Core2 PC I had available. But... since the PC is located near the family room, it is noticeable because of the fan noise. This "fan free" unit should resolve any noise issue.

Here is a link to the hardware:

What attracted me to this device was:

  1. Its designed for builds (no RAM or Drive or OS included).
  2. It is supposedly "long life" at five years.
  3. 1GHz and dual NIC.
  4. Cost. Definitely a good deal for a dual NIC device.

So, when the box arrives tomorrow, I am hoping I see what I wanted and can start my build!

I already have an older SSD that will be more than enough for this project. Does anyone think I should still run...
