I’m thinking about buying a Raspberry Pi to start my self-hosted journey. I have three usecases in mind: Navidrome server, Jellyfin server and a Pi-hole network ad-blocking. Can a single machine (like a Raspberry Pi) run these operations simultaneously? Thanks in advance!
What is good enough fr transcoding? I have plex for travel, I want to move to jellyfin and get an arr stack all on one system. Looking at a 9th gen i5 thinkcentre with 16gb ram
Official Recommendations for low power: Intel 12th gen or above N series platforms Apple M Series Mac mini Rockchip RK3588 / RK3588S SBC (Advanced Users Only)
Note 10th gen and older integrated graphics are losing support in Linux due to Intel dropping SDK support or something. Don’t buy a nuc or small PC with Intel 10 or older but if you have one it’s fine for now.
Another option would be an old laptop with dedicated graphics (e.g. e waste/recyclers). then you can get away with older than 10gen Intel since you’d be using the external graphics. Just research how to limit battery charging in the bios since it’s always going to be plugged in.
