Someone linked a list of Mini-PCs here: https://lemmy.world/post/19837516
I think the N100 sounds good. But I can't comment on buying a cheap chinesium one versus a refurbished Fujitsu/Lenovo or an Intel NUC.
I bought a "cheap chinesium" one a couple of months back and have not regretted it (yet). It does what it claimed it would.
The one I bought: Aoostar R1
Uuhh, that's a cute little trash can. Now fit that with the maximum of RAM it supports and two 12TB harddrives... And it'll do more media center and NAS than the average person needs.
Exactly. It handles Jellyfin + other services very well.
Add some googly eyes if it "lives" in the living room. They fit right above the switch which would then become the nose.
Yeah back when I needed storage (quite some years ago) the mini pcs were less capable and more pricey, so I ended up building a NAS myself. It's a regular, yet very power efficient PC. But due to size, it doesn't fit next to the TV. If I'd do the same thing today, I'd certainly consider a machine like this. And $200 doesn't sound much for a 2-bay NAS.
