Even products bellow 50 USD are getting the 50% tax now, and xeons dont have igpu, I prefer to buy an intel with igpu to do hardware encoding/decoding, more efficient and I heard it gets the job done really well (jellyfin says to absolutely not buy AMD APUs for hardware decoding btw). For hosting I actually have pots 80 and 443 open on my router so Ive been using caddy and duckdns with no issues.
Stuff like this is why I'm so happy anime exists. In the West we are all asking "should we even make an animation with high-school girls in a gun fight a platypus?" while in Japan they are asking the real questions "how many guns do we give to that platypus?"
Thanks for being the only one here that is actually commenting on hardware choices, everyone else is trying to convince me to try stuff I already tried haha
I might just splurge and get one of those drives afterall, hopefully they go on sale at some point
Will stream over the internet and being in a developing country a lot of devices can't even handle h265 so los of transcoding. Will also host foundryVTT and maybe some game servers
I live in a developing country, when libraries/business and other places get rid of hardware its because its literally useless, Im talking single core 32bit cpus useless. I made this thread so I hopefully wont make any mistakes hahaha
What would be some options for NAS drives? The ones I found were quite expensive to the point I think it would be cheaper to just replace damaged drives and run them in RAID. Was also thinking about using a M.2 drive to run programs on and HDDs for file storage, I wonder how beneficial and how hard it is to do that
