That’s the thing, when I buy new devices, my old ones usually go to my parents or for donation. So I have no old tech laying around, sadly. I’ll have to buy, that’s the reason for the post.

Right now I want to host movies, photos, automatic backups, files in general. Also use it for the smart home that I’m slowly putting together, basic stuff… for starters.

Someone mentioned that if I want to host 4k content I should go for a 7th gen Intel CPU or newer for HVAC support, something I didn’t know, but that showcases exactly the sort of restrictions that I had in mind when I submitted this post.

Sorry it took me a while to respond, didn’t expect to have this many responses.

Thanks for the response, it pretty much answers all questions I had in mind (I think…😅).

How complex is migrating the whole thing for a the new setup when upgrading? The best I can get with my current budget probably resembles the “quality” of your second server(first upgrade).

While on your firstly upgraded server, were there limitations to any of your self-hosting desires? Things that were only possible on your following upgrade? That’s my main concern. I’m probably over thinking things, it will be my first home server, I’ll probably stick the simple stuff at first.

Thanks for the tips.

The thing that troubles me getting into a universe of such magnitude is getting the several titles and arcs to make sense both individually and correlated. Don’t knownif you’re familiared with the cosmere universe by Brandon Sanderson, composed by standalones and series that kinda correlate, but I kinda fucked up on the reading order and missed a few references, eater eggs, stuff that would be exciting to understand, but just became clear uppon a rereading, I don’t want to go through that with the marvel universe. Maybe… I’m just overthinking things

Btw, what really got me into comics was the invincible series, tried reading the walking dead series, by the same author, attempting to fill the void left by the invincible series, but I didn’t enjoy it as much.

The stories I’m interested are for adults and more serious. Don’t really care for the gender, race of the character or anything like that, what I seek is well developed, complex characters. The scale of the usually don’t matter, but I tend to gravitate towards bigger threats and longer plots. Some friends of mine have recommended me civil war and old man logan, but the lack of a bigger picture plot discouraged me, given the magnitude of the marvel universe.

Thanks for the recommendations, I’ll check them out.
