Explain your comment because these definitely aren't junk. We have probably close to 100 of these at various clients and aside from 2 motherboard replacements (which were around $20 on eBay btw) at one client due to a power issue with the environment, they have been very OptiPlex-like - efficient, quiet, easy to work on, and boring (in a good way).
I believe it would go to somewhere in the 30W range when doing certain tasks.
This will be a blueiris NVR for a client. good for 8 4k cameras with 4tb drive in it. proxmox win10 and home assist and it's a central system for a home.
Thanks in advance.

Thanks in advance.
Depends on the size of the GPU really and you should at least get the SFF or MT model.

I have a few older MT units and I did a 1630 and 1650 in them since both are 75W cards and can power off the pcie slot directly without any extra connectors. They also have no issue with the stock PSUs.
Some people upgrade the PSU in the MT models or do an external PSU to run beefier cards but I didn't need that much video oomph and preferred to not hack my Optis to that degree.
If you are going to use a 3.5 in HD sata drive, probably not because there is really no space for another HD. Unless of course if you want to remove the optical drive.
If you're going to use 2 small sata drives (2.5 in SSD or HD), yes, you can use the sata cable of the optical drive for another sata drive and maybe you need a sata power cable splitter as shown in the video.

Right now I can see there is only 1 model/configuration left (7 remaining) that can be added to cart. $150
