What should I do with a spare elitedesk sff?
I already have a nas running on one. I already have a Kodi/HTPC desktop. Running endeavor w/ KDE.
I was going to put regular arch on it but was wondering if anyone had some other ideas.

Homebrew router?
I put 3 of them into a proxmox cluster with multi network plugged into the WIFI m.2 A+E slots so they can act as router and other servers and I can migrate from system to system when/if I need to do maintenance.
I was thinking that... Have you tried this?
Yes - I have been running IPFire on an old desktop for several years now and I really like it.
I used an old thin client as a pfSense firewall for years... but the DSL into passthrough mode and effectively made that a modem, so in effect pfSense was the "router"
If you don't have something like that, it's a step up from a standard ISP one.
Not sure about long term power consumption though...
