With all this migration i’ve been inspired to start self hosting some services.
I am looking for a mini pc to ideally run linux and host a media server with radarr and sonarr, pihole and some other stuff as i start getting more into self hosting.
Any recommendations / experiences that you can give? Or some general guidelines on what i should look for or things to avoid.
Same here. I have everything running on an ex-lease HP EliteDesk. Small footprint, and quite upgradable. Think I paid about £150 for it and it’s been running quite happily for a couple of years. Runs everything I can throw at it.
I don’t know why people buy RPIs anymore, unless the tiny form-factor is a must have.

A few years old prebuilt for the office can work well, I have an HP 290 and HP S01 that work great as servers.
That’s what I did as well. Got one with a sixth gen i7 for $100 on eBay a few years ago. It’s been chugging along nicely.
