How many other are in to this?
I just recently moved from Smart Things and went down the Home Assistant rabbit hole. Took about 2 weeks to migrate over and get all of my automations switched over. About 100 devices total. About 60 of which are Zwave, Zigbee.
I have home assistant running on a refurbed dell optiplex running virtualbox..
16gb RAM, 3.4GHz I-7 3770, 250 Gb ssd. Reboots are fast but I had to run it on my work computer for a few days. It has an I-7 10700. Reboots were insanely fast on it.
The advantage to Home assistant is that I have all devices running locally, not dependent on any cloud services. I could lose internet and all devices will still work. Even the wifi devices. Piece of mind considering we have some idiot here that likes to cut the fiber feed to the neighborhood occasionally..
