What hardware do you use for Nextcloud?
I’m willing to finally get my own cloud using #Nextcloud but I have zero clue about which hardware I should choose for home storage. It would be used for domestic stuff, such as photos, music, movies and files, for the whole family, not necessarily for work

Mine is running on a HP 600 G1 Micro Computer Mini Tower PC. Right now, less than $80 from Bezos. It's over powered for Nextcloud alone, but I've also got other services running on it, including Jellyfin.

It zips along quite nicely, but I've also followed the guides for tuning the server for best performance.
