Hello Redditers,

i built a Proxmox homeLAB with Fanless Box that i bought from internet (CPU N5105 - RAM 16 - Storage Nvme 256). i’m running Pfsense 2.6 VM as home Firewall and gateway (LAN GW + WAN), and another VM with Kubuntu 23.04 OS.

Temperature while using just Pfsense is around 40°

Temperature while using both VMs Pfrense and Kubuntu is around 60°

i’m looking now for a solution to cool down the Box temperature (thinking of small fan but afraid that will be noisy specially i sleep near the setup)

Many thanks
