What hardware do you use for Nextcloud?
I’m willing to finally get my own cloud using #Nextcloud but I have zero clue about which hardware I should choose for home storage. It would be used for domestic stuff, such as photos, music, movies and files, for the whole family, not necessarily for work

      I’m currently using an i5 9500 and it runs good here too.

      Note for OP though: If you don’t need/want transcoding it’d be way cheaper to get an equivalent AMD CPU just because motherboards are hilariously expensive for an obsolete platform.

        I use a an Inteln Arc card for transcoding. Mainly because I also use Immich and transcode movies too. It’s great.

        I most of my parts from Ebay second hand, including the CPU.

          Oh nice, didnt know you could HW accel immich. I havent tried immich yet but im getting v tempted!

          Going the dGPU is a good idea though, I gotta get in on that eventually.
