Hello everyone,
I am running some services like Jellyfin, Radarr, QBittorrent, Jellyseerr and some others on my Raspberry Pi 4. The problem is that it is already struggling to run those, since it has only 2GB of RAM. I wish it was possible to do a RAM upgrade to the Raspberry Pi but the RAM is soldered to the motherboard. I don’t want to buy another Raspberry Pi with more RAM because they are quite expensive and I don’t want to have two of them. So can you recommend something for around or under 100€?
Thanks in advance.
If you want the small footprint and power costs are a concern, look for a second hand mini computer. Dell, Lenovo, Intel nuc.
Something like this as an example.
I always thought that mini computer.were more power hungry than SBC. Am I wrong?
Yeah, they’re more power hungry, but they’re also way more performant than a pi 4.
Thanks.
No but less power hungry than a full desktop. It’s a good trade-off between power and performance.
I found an HP EliteDesk 800 G1 SFF at 100€ here. It has an Intel core i5 4th Gen and 8GB of RAM. Not exactly mini but cheap. Do you think it’s worth it?
EDIT: nvm I found this used Intel nuc here with the same specs.
