# Hardware

## What you need

Honestly, whatever you have on hand will probably suit you for most cases - if you have an old, unused device then turn that into a dedicated server. Even if it is not a permanent solution, it'll provide you with a good foundation to practice and make mistakes without the fear of ruining hardware.
