atm im not running much since not much time to lab, just the base stack.

Tailscale negotiates a direct VPN to the VPS and all traffic going through the VPN goes through the VPS.
As for bandwidth its not really that expensive unless you need like 30-50tb per month type numbers.
If its specific machines you can install tailscale on those also and they make a direct connection.
I got on my phone,laptop,tablet etc so wherever i am it will use tailscale as middleman to find open ports and establish a vpn to home network.
Tailscale and a cheap VPS running the exit node tends to be a common route.
Lets you expose services out without opening anything localy and gets you full control out from the VPS without ISP meddeling.
There are other alternatives but tailscale has the best free tier with upto 100 devices, exit node+router, solid access control and mfa.
Everytime i see that card i go "who on earth is this for, who would want this".
Beyond being behind a plx switch for added latency there is not actualy enough bandwidth to support using all 3 features.
The plus side of selling to graphics market i guess, they are "non-tech tech'.
I doubt there is much of a market for x1 sfp+ cards tho.
Id expect most do same as i do now, just stick a x4/x8 card in the x1 slot.
It tends to go hand in hand with a nas with built in 10gbase-t switch.
Sfp+ tends to have a latency pitch in this segment, that ship has sailed with the nic behind a switch.
The IOM6 units are just dumb expanders, they do not support zoning etc splitting of the shelf.
They just give direct access to all drives and thats it.
On paper you can split it by just connecting both and making sure you dont use the same drive for both servers.
(Would expect you to need the interposers if this is sata drives)
Have not done this myself but ive seen it done in multiple setups.
The cleaner approach imo would be a virtual truenas etc file server that runs on the host needing lowest latency and shares to the rest.
The firebox m500 is solid to use for pfsense/opnsense.
Tripp-lite pdus are very nice if you they have the management card in them.
The 3560 i would not use due to consumption/age.
How small do you need to start?
And you need to define "FAST" with an actual number you need.
These days a barebones r730 or dl380 gen9 will often be cheaper than a generic chinese x99 board. (Barebone/CTO is generaly only missing cpu/ram/storage)
Uses the same typical e5-2600v4/ddr4 with sas hba+nic usualy included since they are specific to server.
And you then get psus,case,heatsinks,fans etc also included.
Buying a board and building is the expensive route, its usualy not taken unless you got nowhere to stash the noisy rack option.
As a fellow Norwegian ive always just vented the air into the living area (with a sound trap after fan).
A few places ive lived this has been all my heating all year.

Would not expect it to just ping something like google.com, maybe use their dns tho.
The ones ive dealt with have a rotation of urls it tries to load.
Bonus joy is when you use the TV longer than they expect and some of them stop responding, so even with no firewall/vlan etc segmentation it still needs this spoofing done.
