I need to either rebuild the fileserver or just get a NAS set up. I need more IOPS

And I need to grab an NVME and install w11 on it to make sure my stuff all migrates cleanly from 10.

And I need to get rid of this 40 inch tv as a monitor. as cool as it is, the eye strain is really bad for me.

fun weekend, I guess.

Good luck!

I used a old PC as a NAS but it's not the fastest thing on the planet.

Is it a 4k TV?

That's an old computer. I wonder how much faster it is than the ATHLON II X2 250! mine has.

Yours is AM3 arch. Mine's Am2. Yours should be faster across the spectrum.

Good point.

Mine frequently gets hammered by Immich machine learning. It's slow at that. Since it's background though I don't care as much.

Am3 is STILL 2009 arch, man. I'm not suprised Immich abuses it. You're driving in an F1 race with a moped.

Yah. It was the most useless tower I had that could run a NAS so that was why I used it. I did get the other nearly identical i3 HP to work, though despite it getting double the AMD in Cinebench R20 Multi CPU I've forgotten the single core score. And it'll still be slow.

I had Immich downscale videos to 480p for web playback and it took it a week or so to go through the 5000 or so videos I have.

I got Linux Mint 22 XFCE on the Pentium 4 Optiplex. I'm updating it, and then I'm going to have some fun with trying to browse the web on it.
