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

    fwiw, I run emby on my fileserver using an atom C3558 and it can handle h264 and below just fine. h265 needs more cpu though, so. transcoding is transcoding.
