Best Beelink Mini PC to support Jellyfin out of the box - Anju Chamantha - 2025-03-02
I'm planning to build an "all-in-one" home lab mini server using a mini PC. Found out that Beelink mini PCs are a good value for the money. I'm stuck with Mini S (S12, S13 etc) and EQ (EQ13, EQ14) series and also wondering to buy N95, N100 or N150. While some quick searching saw that there are hardware acceleration issues with some of those chips (don't know all those have the issue).
Any advice?
Current Plans:
Migrate my smart home solution from the current rasperberry pi to the new mini PC
Run Jellyfin in mini PC (currently running in my main PC, which I cannot keep on 24/7)
Thought of using proxmox to run all these
Future Plans:
Host a NAS solution
Use Immich (local Google Photos like client to backup all my photos/videos)

Due to your future plans, my first question is "what is your budget"? Because if you want to host a NAS solution from whatever device you end up getting, perhaps a PC in a full size case is in order. Assuming your budget allows it.
