I host not only all the Servarr apps, but about a dozen more miscellaneous ones on an old unused workstation I stole out of the attic at my old job. It has a shitty quadcore and 16gb of ram that I cobbled together from a couple other workstations I nabbed. The thing wouldn’t even be able to run Minecraft, but it has no issue fetching media from private trackers and Usenet, and then streaming them to my other devices. The only thing I wish I could upgrade is the shitty network card, that can only handle 10mb/s. It’s not too bad, because I only let it download at night when I’m asleep anyway.
Just goes to show you can make a really good setup with whatever old PCs you have laying around. Or steal.
(For legal reasons, I’m not suggesting other people steal computers from work)
