I’m wanting to set up my external Seagate drive with all my media on it to run a jellyfin server but I’m not sure which device to use. I’m thinking a raspberry pi but I’m not sure which one. From what I can tell from running the server on my laptop it is fairly CPU intensive for lower end systems

Edit: so general consensus seems to be, don’t use a pi, it’s not powerful enough

    I’m hosting mine on an old i5-750 (yeah, not 7500…), with an GeForce gt640 and 4GB of ram… Never encountered any problems whatsoever.

    I would take a hot take and say, any old pc that you can find will do just fine.
