I have an old Xbox One X (the 1tb model) that I would love to turn into a Linux box to do self hosting. While I do my best to find tutorials online for installing Linux, I was hoping I could pick y’all’s brains on your experiences for upgrading:
- Best hard drives to use (internal and/or USB3)?
- Can the RAM be upgraded?
- Can the Bluray be replaced with a hard drive?
- Anything else I’m missing and don’t know to ask about?
Thanks!


Just find an old office PC. It’ll do just as much as (if not more than) an Xbox One X, which runs even older hardware.
