Hi everyone, Last month I finally managed to build my first SFF PC (Ryzen 7600 + AMD 6800). I’m also starting to learn about self-hosting and tinkering with it (the usual stuff: Jellyfin, pi-hole, nextcloud, VPN, torrenting etc.)
Thing is, of course, a server has to be always on, and I’m having trouble understanding if it can be reasonable to keep it always on or if it’s too pricey and I should invest in a dedicated hardware.
My consideration: a Raspberry Pi seems like it’s not enough powerfull after all. I’ve seen you can come up with an old i5 (4th to 6th gen) minipc with like 100/150 euros, but in not really sure it’s gonna consume much less than my system. What do you suggest? What am I missing?
Thank you :)
Unfortunately, in my country prices are WAY higher for that kind of device, but I too think it’s the right way!
