With all this migration i’ve been inspired to start self hosting some services.

I am looking for a mini pc to ideally run linux and host a media server with radarr and sonarr, pihole and some other stuff as i start getting more into self hosting.

Any recommendations / experiences that you can give? Or some general guidelines on what i should look for or things to avoid.

Thank you!!

    Intel NUC is probably the best choice - silent, possible to have two SSDs, pretty low powered.

    Personally, I did settle with 13 Dell optiplexes 9020 SFF

      If you buy used clean out the fan on em. Decent amount of them just get a caked layer of dust blocking the fan
