If you don’t trust tailscale you’ll have to get some sort of ddns for wireguard and punch through your router

Let me know if you want further context.
I’m running proxmox on that same machine with a 9 node k8s cluster serving zabbix, zammad, coreDNS, three Grav sites and it’s also the SAN for my Longhorn implementation as It’s got a 10gig sfp+ card in it. Powerdraw sits at around 630 watts on average. It’s in a corosync cluster with an R720xd and my old gaming PC.
It’s got plenty of room for you to grow if electricity is cheap, they make great ISCSI servers and also baremetal DBs if you outgrow it completely.
Another competitor you might be interested in is teleport. You can self host but it’s a bit convoluted to get to the documentation so I posted a how to at the very bottom of this replay. It’s very easy to setup and is free as in beer as long as you don’t connect to any of their cloud stuff.

1ct KAMRUI Mini PC Intel N5105 Windows 11 Pro 8GB RAM 256GB SSD WIFI6 4K Dual LAN (proxmox arbiter and also this will run your pfsense/opensense firewall vm/appliance)
2ct UM350 Mini PC 16 GB RAM 512 GB PCIe SSD AMD Ryzen 5 3550H Mini Computers (both of these will be the prox 2 and prox3 worker nodes)
Buffalo TS5410DN1604 TeraStation (NAS)
1ct Cisco Catalyst WS-C3650-24PS-S 24-Port Gigabit Ethernet Switch TESTED
All of that together with the Buy it now options are around $1000 USD total with shipping. That Buffalo NAS will need 3.5" drives. So add that to the cost.
Yes absolutely.
