analogking 2 Posted September 5, 2020 Share Posted September 5, 2020 I'm downsizing from a dual Xeon server with 48TB of DAS. It's too loud, uses too much power, and is somewhat overkill for my application. My goal is to find something quiet that I can place near my TV. I tried a Raspberry Pi, but it struggles with 4k content. I was thinking about picking up an i7 Mac mini, but I don't want to burn $1500 on something that may not work. Can anyone recommend an out-of-box system that can handle transcoding a single 4k HDR stream? My budget for this project is ~$1500, and I'll be running everything in containers. I prefer MacOS or Ubuntu, but could run Windows if that's the only option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
