It'll most likely be 1-2 users most of the time I guess. For streaming on the TV I'd prefer 4k though. Might look into the N100 systems, thanks.

Jup, just responded on the other comment.

I looked into it before but this will get a lot more expensive here. I'm currently mostly looking used HP, Dell or other office PCs.

The Jellyfin doc states that

Intel ARC B series cards require ReBar to be enabled. This means you must use it on a platform with Intel 10th gen, AMD Ryzen 3000 series or newer.

More like would a i5-8500 or i3-9100 be sufficient to run the mentioned services and encode up to 4k, no HDR though.

 

Currently I'm thinking again about setting up a home server. But I am unsure about the scaling. In the hope to get some input from experienced users I'm coming here.

Services that I intend on running:

  • TrueNAS SCALE
  • Jellyfin
  • *arr stack
  • Immich
  • Nextcloud
  • Bitwarden (maybe)

I've read the Jellyfin documentation which states i5-11500 (because the toolkit for 7-10th gen is deprecated, even though you could encode H.264/H.265) or newer for CPU based encoding or at least a GTX 1660. Because electricity is quite expensive here, I'd prefer CPU encoding. On the other side, office systems with 11th or newer gen are far more expensive. I've found a i5-6500, 16 GB RAM, GTX 1660 system for 180 Euro incl. shipping. There are a few 7th-9th gen systems with 16 GB RAM available that use on board graphics and are 80-120 Euro excl. shipping but I'm not sure if they suffice running the mentioned services and maybe a few more I don't know about yet.

I have two WD Red and a WD Green lying around, I'd like to use. From what I've heard so far, it's necessary to use a separate drive to run TrueNAS off of, which I'd need to buy separately.

Maybe you can give me some insights. Thanks.

Officially. Don't forget about Nazis living on the far side of the moon. ~(/s, obviously)~

No "only cried once today" star for me :(

No. Don't want kids either and don't feel bad about not leaving a "legacy". I'm just trying to not go insane, which sometimes works better, sometimes works worse. I rather live only 30 years but am mostly healthy and spend my money on things I like, with people I love. Sadly I'm still too afraid to quit my job and do what I really like (or find out what exactly that is in the first place).

Sorry you had to go through this.

No need to add anything if it's already perfect.

The same facial expression I make one week into the month when looking at my cheque account.

My roomba of thought got stuck under the toilet while mapping the apartment. It's been there for some time and now thinks it has discovered a new, very narrow yet 34 meter long, room.
