Hello everyone,

I am running some services like Jellyfin, Radarr, QBittorrent, Jellyseerr and some others on my Raspberry Pi 4. The problem is that it is already struggling to run those, since it has only 2GB of RAM. I wish it was possible to do a RAM upgrade to the Raspberry Pi but the RAM is soldered to the motherboard. I don't want to buy another Raspberry Pi with more RAM because they are quite expensive and I don't want to have two of them. So can you recommend something for around or under 100€?

Thanks in advance.

They are power and space efficient, and usually very quiet. That's fascinating enough.

I have acknowledged that they're that, but that's not what OP asked for - they asked for a cheap setup (which the minis ain't) and they intend to run a servarr instance, which implies large storage and those are both difficult and not cheap to cram into said minis.

It depends on your needs. I have minis that cost <100$ and have others that cost 500$. My cheapest mini has currently 3TB of backups of my personal things, so it serves my needs very cheaply. I don't need a GPU so it keeps the costs down.
