    I have seen many posts where users are running Jellyfin on old Gaming PCs, Enterprise grade Servers, and Storages. I have been running Jellyfin on my Gaming PC for about 6 Months and then switched over to my Synology NAS for about 2-3 Months. Sadly the performance on my Synology isn't that great when it comes to streaming on the phone. Im watching most of the stuff on my phone and therefore transcoding is needed which is very bad on the Synology.
    Since it's really a pain to watch anything over my NAS installed Instance and I don't want to keep my Gaming PC on 24/7, I want to build a dedicated System for Jellyfin.

    What would be an ideal Hardware choice for a home use case? I'm only having about 1-2 Streams at the same time, I want something low power to keep it on 24/7 - PoE would be nice but not a must. Most importantly I want a good performance like im having on my Gaming PC / similar to that. The Build wouldn't need much Storage since all of my Media is stored on the NAS. Is there maybe a prebuild solution for my usecase something like a Raspberry Pi etc.?
