Sophos: Compatible appliance
«

Hey all,
I have been running my OPNSense for years now on a humble Zotac i5 (2/4) miniPC with dual Realtek NIC, 16GB memory and SSD.
I am running the basic plus Zenarmor and NTOPNG with a decent performance both from hardware and network.
I wanna give some love to my home network with a proper 10G switch and a more decent firewall setup that can be fitted within a small U alike rack.
I know folks have managed to run OPNSense on Sophos hardware which some are 100% operational with the led and front buttons working without issue.
You can buy some cheap whatever that means Sophos appliances on eBay, which models are recommended???
Preferable a model that allows memory expansion and SSD replacement if possible.
16GB memory is a must imo to have a decent experience if you wanna play around with things rather than a standard router/firewall.
Thank you so much for any help.

I'm just testing a SG230 v2 appliance w/ 6+2 ports installed.
Installation went smooth, CPU can be changed, memory can be expanded.
If the LCD and the buttons are working need to be tested, but I woun't need that at all.
