I've been running pfSense for quite a few years now on my home network, and now that they're going more commercial, I'm debating a move to Sophos.
I recently upgraded my hardware, and currently I have the following:
Jetway NF9HG-2930 motherboard (Celeron N2930 quad-core CPU and quad Intel i211AT NICs)
8GB of DDR3 non-ECC RAM (leftover from a laptop upgrade)
32GB AData mSATA SSD
Will this support Sophos for a small home network? (3-4 PCs, 1-2 VMs and a host of mobile devices and misc internet-connected toys) My connection is about 120GB down and 25-30 up.
Will the 32GB drive be sufficient? I think the requirements I saw list 20GB min, and 40GB recommended. I just got that SSD, so I'd hate to waste the money, but the motherboard only has one mSATA slot and there's no room in the case for a 2.5" drive.
Anything else I should be thinking about before I make the cut-over?
