Give this a whorl?: https://www.zimaboard.com/blade/  Bought NAS kit and 
should be here approx end of March

I replaced an old HP PC used as a webserver, etc with one of their 
Zimaboards running FreeBSD bought on sale.  Went from 150-200 watts to 
no leds showing on my UPS draw meter. Nice to not have to fiddle with 
ARM64 software picadillies.  Silent!! Runs on 12v if inclined towards 
off-grid or grid-down usage.
