What’s the best affordable pre-built mini server available in Europe? I’m looking for a reliable and compact option that won’t break the bank
Edit: something that are not arm based
Edit 2: I’m looking to set up a system that can run Jellyfin, Ollama, and a few other small services. By ‘pre-built’, I mean I want to buy a device that already has the necessary hardware and installation, so all I need to do is install the operating system and I’m good to go
I’m not sure if they’re still affordable but I ended up getting both a morefine and a beelink, one with the n100 Intel CPU and the other with the n305. They handle everything I’ve thrown at them, and come with out of the box quicksync transcoding for Jellyfin/Plex. Handles 4K transcode like a champ.
Couple that with 2.5g Ethernet and they sip power.
Though they might have gone up in price since I bought mine.

I have a beelink running jellyfin and it’s fine.
It has the n100.
