Hey all,
I’ve been hosting a server for a while but i’m looking to move my hardware to something more dedicated. I’d prefer to buy a Dell Poweredge or HP Proliant server as they’re rack mountable and cheap to buy used, but i’m not sure if a dual-CPU setup even works with jellyfin.
If it does, what Xeon processors are going to work best? Most of the sites selling server chassis are unloading older ones at a great price, but i’m unfamiliar with the Xeon family features. I plan on adding a dedicated GPU (likely an older 1080).
