That will definitely work for a Pi-Hole or AdGuard Home. If it has 2 network controllers, you could even set it up as a router and firewall with OPNsense. That would allow you to do even cooler stuff like DNS packet redirection for devices/applications that have a hardcoded DNS server.
Only DNS lookups. And it’s lightweight enough you could have an original NUC, set up a pi hole LXC on proxmox, and have plenty of power left over for other tasks.
I have an old Intel nuc that I could slap a hard drive in. It wouldn’t have to handle all traffic, right?
That should be fine, most people use raspberry pi’s as a pihole server so a much shouldn’t have any problems handling it
