Hi all!
I've been wanting to get a little mini PC or small PC to set up my own cloud photo/video backup, media server and maybe some other tools to try out.
I found a used HP Pro 300 G3 with an i5-9400, 16GB RAM and a. 256GB SSD for €170. It's the best I could find locally so far.
My plan was to buy this, buy a 6TB HDD 3.5" and setup Immich and Plex or Jellyfin. I've barely ever used Linux but I'm looking at using Docker or containers or something like this.
I have a collection of 4K movies and tv shows in folders and personal photos/videos backup.
I will use either the device itself to watch the movies/shows, or through Plex/Jellyfin, I will use an Nvidia Shield Pro or just the Smart TV apps to access the content.
Should I be concerned with transcoding? Is this powerful for something like this and potentially other side things like offline LLM, smart home automation etc.?
Thank you.
