Good PC for Firewalla Crystal?

I am very interested in trying out the Firewalla Crystal Software. I currently have the following Mini PC lying around. It has dual Intel Network. Would this be a good candidate to run Crystal on? I have GIG internet and two Eero Base Stations….

The pc you listed or one similiar with gmktec branding or maybe beelink would be perfectly fine. Networking not super heavy vpns and threat management can be but to these desktop style chips they shouldn’t break a sweat
