  • For a home server, go get a Thinkcentre tiny m710q for 80€.

    Cheap, uses very low power, easy to upgrade and maintain (one nvme, one 2"5 slot, two DDR4 SODIMM 32GB max but people say it’s actually 64GB, lots of usb & video ports).

    For a business, where the server/PC will run at full speed, generate heat, and eventually break down, you need beefier hardware and redundance.

    You all need a backup plan of course but if you lose your home PC it’s not the same thing than losing your business…

    It’s not really the hardware, it’s what you do with it. Encode lots of stuff? Don’t buy that thinkcentre for example.
