My Plex server is nothing more than a Raspberry Pi tied to a SSD.
I'd love to get mine all on SSDs but 80tb of SSDs gets pretty expensive
With that much data I'd go for standard hard disks too. Probably gets the job done just as well.
I just am getting started. My plex server is very aging gaming PC running while i game lol.
That's how I started, when I upgraded my PC my old PC became a dedicated Plex server running Linux, then the CPU gave up after 8 years (3 years as a 24/7 sever) then bought a PC to run unraid. Its a slippery slope, I started on 16tb of media 6 months ago, I'm now on 24tb...
Mine is a NUC running Jellyfin tied to a HDD via USB
+1 for Jellyfin!
I have refurbished off-lease PC running Jellyfin which we connect directly to our TV for easy access to various streaming services as well
Gah I want to switch to Jellyfin but there is no PS5 app.
My way is just a chromecast.
Sadly thats currently the only solution by adding yet another device but for 40/60€ it's not very expensive. I would give it a try
I had to upgrade from that once it started struggling more and more with higher definition content. I ended up upgrading my desktop and using the old parts to build a server machine. The only things I had to buy was a PC case and some hard drives.
Care to share the “how to” with a budding enthusiast who received a RPI4 yesterday?
pimylifeup.com taught me everything
SSD? Check out Mr fancy pants. Mines an old USB 2.0 HDD.
Same except usb stick!
Mine runs as a kubernetes app on my truenas scale NAS.
