I have sonarr, radarr, prowlarr, jellyfin and qbittorrent-nox running on my computer. I want to move it to an sbc so it can run 24h/day and draw less power.

All my media are on a M.2 drive so it’s important to have a way to somehow connect it to that sbc.

Fyi I also intend to run AdGuard

What sbc do you recommend for such a setup? Do I have to wait for RPi 5 or are there better alternatives? Of course the best value for money

    If you have the cash: Get a (used) NUC or mini-pc.
    You’ll benefit more from the RAM and x86 and you can transcode.

    I’m running mine on Pi4. It works, but I wouldn’t really recommend it. It needs frequent reboots and tends to choke on anything over 1080.

    I’m running this on a Pi 3b+, however the performance leaves more to be desired, when using Jellyfin. With Plex, this is not an issue at all. Smooth sailing, assuming you’ll not be watching bluray rips of gigantic file size

    Acronyms, initialisms, abbreviations, contractions, and other phrases which expand to something larger, that I’ve seen in this thread:

    Fewer Letters More Letters
    NUC Next Unit of Computing brand of Intel small computers
    Plex Brand of media server package
    SBC Single-Board Computer

    3 acronyms in this thread; the most compressed thread commented on today has 6 acronyms.
