Hey all
Been playing around with plex and the *arr's for a while on my main desktop.
Now looking to set up a server to run plex, downloads, pi hole and eventually some other backup's.
Unfortunately the PC I had laying around is 32bit and it seems like most things are removing support for that architecture if they haven't already. Now I'm faced with the problem/opportunity of getting something new (to me).
But I'm struggling with the absolute sea of options out there and also don't want to spend on brand new gear.
There's quite a bit of server grade hardware floating around (like a Dell Poweredge server T410, 32GB ram, Intel Xeon E5645 2.13GHz Quad-core for $100AUD) or even rackmount gear (probably overkill but a boy can dream).
Or should I just get a consumer case with the most drive bays I can find and build from there?
Lowish power consumption is a priority, planning on running ubuntu or similar.
Any and all tips welcome!
Thanks.
I think you’re about to find out that the “belief” that Linux doesn’t need antivirus isn’t just held by everyone in this community, it’s held by the whole Linux community. Hence there being no active projects in the space.
Heck you almost don’t need any antivirus in windows anymore. Just windows defender and half a brain when it comes to what you download.
