    rPi4 is capable of running the arrs, Plex, and transmission without issue?

    what’s your storage setup for the 4TB?

      Yes it can. Problems only arise when video transcoding is needed. I can run 2-3 clients on my jellyfin instance if no transcoding is needed what so ever.

      EDIT : I’m using a rPi4 8Gb pair with a Synology NAS DS220j

        this is good to know. I never really tested it, but I discounted its ability to perform this well. although I guess without transcoding that makes sense. going to reevaluate my rpi4 setup, although I do only have 4gb ram

          It’s not what you think. It can run a lot of things but it’s so incredibly slow, especially if you don’t have a ssd paired up, that for me it was unbearable.

      Yup. I do the same thing and just use the Jellyfin app to access for instances where H265 transcoding is needed. For mine, I just have a USB 1 TB HD connected

    Is Jellyfin actually performant for you? Because last I checked, the hardware encoding that the Pi uses isn’t completely yet supported in Jellyfin. I tried to play some videos but the resulting videos would take forever to load and seek.

    Seeing people run all these containers on a raspberry pi is crazy to me - mainly because of the storage requirements. For some reason my docker containers fill up my VM’s storage really quick in the /var/lib/docker/overlay2 folder

    Yeah it looks cool installing all of these apps but trying to run more than a few at the same time on a Pi4 will make it slow to a crawl and then throttle and then slow even more

    Not exactly where you want your pihole DNS server either
