I’ve got a BeeLink N100 system that’s just a bit bigger than a NUC, has two 2.5Gb LAN ports and came with a 512gb nvme drive. Works a treat as a Jellyfin server with TONS of processor and ram headroom. N100 is a great little chip, so long as you’re not expecting i5+ power.

YOU’VE JUST MADE AN ENEMY FOR LIFE!

You can use it as a firewall/router or a VPN gateway and even slap a wireless NIC or two on there and make it a combo router/AP, which can simultaneously play and transcode video as a Plex/Jellyfin server with zero hit to networking performance.

I played Outer Wilds immediately after I played Disco Elysium. Both would be incredible to experience fresh again.

Wifi is not for critical services, get that thing wired.
