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
i5 9th gen. 8 Seagate Ironwolf in a RaidZ2. 64GB ECC Ram. Software: TrueNAS.
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.
They use the hardware acceleration not only for transcoding and encoding but also for the AI models afaik. It’s great!
