    It definitely will work, I think you need to figure out how you would handle securing them for students, how are they going to log in with their AD usernames, how do you lock them down from messing with the system,how will you get them their shared drives if they have any, how to prevent them getting around vpn/proxy blocking etc. All this you’d normally do with group policy. I’m interested to see what you do.

    Personally I would suggest getting an older intel i5 board on ebay in a bundle deal (mobo, CPU, RAM) and get a cheapish quadro also from ebay and just slap proxmox or Debian on it and do hardware transcoding. This would double as a NAS, You could easily set up NFS server or SMB/CIFS no problem. Then all you really are depending on in pci slots for an HBA, case size and PSU sata connectors.

    Currently I have this setup with a 5th Gen I5 and 11 4tb hdds working great for about a year now…
