I have a Gen 8 HP microserver. Works great. Mine has a Celeron with 4Gb, running Xpenology, but you can plop in a Xeon and 16Gb, for containers and stuff if you want. Runs great, 4 Proliant caddies, cold plug, an extra SATA connector for a CD that can be repurposed for an SSD, a power draw of 25-45w. Very small form factor, Proliant quality and build. Fairly silent, and very small.
Super happy with it, and it can probaly be found on ebay cheap.
Well, I have this now. If it works out OK, I won't need anything else for a while.
Fellow Microserver haver, here! Mine did get a Xeon and RAM boost and has been my everything server for years now.
