Specs

So I've got a Mac pro 1,1 (From 2007) with an intel xeon 5150 (dual-socket) and 2GB of DDR2 ram. Is this usable for a server? if not, what upgrades could make it suffiecient for a heavily modded server with a playerbase <10 people? as of right now it runs Ubuntu 22.04 server.

You would want a minimum of 8gb ram in order to host a mc server. with a heavily modded you probably want like 16gb ram and it would be better to be DDR3 at least. those cpus also likely won't be able to handle hosting that

well, servers really depend. some servers are low specs for simple tasks, some are high specs for hard tasks. the laptop would've been a good server in 2000 we are currently in 2024 soo that will maybe run its os once before it shuts down forever :YEP: thats the sad truth :Sadge:
