Hello Luis!
I have a similar installation at home and I have been using a Supermicro
X7SPE-HF with a D510 Atom processor.
The CPU power is pure overkill but I love the IPMI feature, it has saved
me many times and helps me monitor it.
Some recommendations are:
- Depending where the firewall will be in your house, you might not want
any PSU or other fans working 24/7. My barebone is not "loud", but the
PSU fan is not silent either.
- As it was also suggested, dont focus too much on the build-in WiFi.
You will pay a good amount of extra money for it and you will probably
end up with a less-than-ideal spot where the firewall/wlan AP will be.
So just make sure you have an extra NIC for the Wireless interface and
put a wireless router there.
- Support the companies that support pfsense. If you find the hardware
that best suits you, see if the companies from the link have what you
need. By supporting them you help pfsense.
