Run on a Dedicated PC/Server or on Main PC?

Hello, looking to spin up a Minecraft server for 6-8 people either Vanilla or something like Life In The Woods. Anyways I have an older PC with an i5 7500 and 32 GB ram and was wondering would it be better to run the server on the older machine as it'd be dedicated to the server or would I be better off using my main PC which has an i5 12400 32 GB Ram and an RX6400. My main PC would run the server but also my daily office tasks (Web Browsing/Youtube) and do very light gaming such as Minecraft from the same server I'd be hosting and maybe some other light games such as Among us. Both PC's as of now run Win 11 but I could format the older machine to run Debian. They would be hardwired and I average 40-42 Mbps for my upload.

Thanks for any help/Suggestions you can provide.

We don't call them "Backups" in AMP 3, we call them "Snapshots"

Why? They function as a complete snapshot of the servers state. You can roll back in time, try something different, then go back where you were originally. It's more like a time machine than a standard backup facility.

The actual file and directory structure is preserved, so in Minecraft for example, chunk files that weren't previously present in the first snapshot get removed. Restoring to a newer snapshot brings them back.

You can have both full and partial snapshots, you can choose whether to include everything including the base data and configuration, or just the application state.

Restoring a snapshot automatically takes a new one of the present state so you can't accidentally lose something you didn't intend to.

The command palette is easily my personal favourite feature in AMP 3.

Watch as I navigate to a Minecraft shard, change a setting, go to its console, and start it - all without using the mouse and just with the command palette. It makes it super quick to make changes and just find what you're after.

Shift+Enter on the palette keeps it open and refreshes the available options after that operation, so you can really quickly chain tasks together and keep going with minimal effort.

Permissions managing

I was wondering if there was a way to make it so users I create can only see and manage instances that they create? So like if I create a server under the admin profile, user A can't see any of those instances/servers that I created (that way they can't turn off that specific server while people are using it). But as the admin I still retain the ability to see all instances created on my AMP server.
