Hi all,
I have a jellyfin server at home using an old desktop PC. It's an i7-6700 and an intel ARC A-380 for transcoding with a Samsung SSD and both 16TBs SATA HHDs and USB External HHDs.
I was wondering if I could rely on this HW to be able to support jellyfin long term or if that old CPU might soon become a bottleneck (I assume the A380 will be solid to transcode for a long time).
I'm also curious on the thought of external HHDs vs internal. The externals are often cheaper.
All this is just for one user, myself, over my local network. Should I expect this set-up to last me for a while or will the CPU become a bottle neck soon enough ?
