My home server is still a Gen 8 HP Microserver with a Xeon E3-1230 V2 - so also Ivy Bridge. I wouldn’t mind something more modern and lower power but it seems any alternative with 4+ front drive bays would be quite a bit more expensive - and so it stays.

I have the same, there doesn’t seem to be anything remotely in the same price range.

Only much cheaper slow SSDs could remove the need for the bays and thus allow more options.
