Hello pirates, I am looking to start sailing the seas again but it's been a while looking for hardware requirements? (discuss.tchncs.de)

As the title states I am wondering what would be a good machine to build for my piracy. I am open to buying a used machine on eBay and expanding over time.

The last time I was sailing I had a Dell R610 Server Rack but I don’t have the space for this now. So something that can sit behind a tv stand in the corner next to the router.

I would be running Plex / Jellyfin
Some kind of torrent software
Something for NZBs if still viable
then the usual SONARR, RADARR, etc

I would like to be able to let friends connect from outside my house to stream media and allow them access so they can add films and the server goes off and finds them, extracts them, and adds them to the media server.

Thanks.

This is what everyone always says, and yeah, for most people this is probably the most secure and easiest option. But for me it's too much hassle for my family, too restrictive, and not at all what I'm looking for.

However in this thread I've learned that JF supports https, so if done carefully and properly, I can expose it to the Internet directly, which is what I plan to do. Eventually. Plex is still easier for now.
