Yep! I have an old work station computer that I built for a job years ago that I just transplanted into a cheep server rack case. Old hard drives from laptops as the main OS drives, a cheap networking card and switches. As the old laptop drives go out I'll just replace them with an SSD, it's a mirror array, so it's easy for one to go down and I just drop the new one in and have it all copy over.
An old Core i3 or Ryzen 3, 4+ gb of RAM, throw a cheap 3.5" HDD in it and install your OS. Proxmox is pretty preferred in the hobbyist scene, takes some technical skill but there's a lot of help out there for free on different forums. Feel free to DM me with questions if you like too! I'm not super reliable, but I'll try.
Skateboarding over age 25?
Sorry to hear that, I hope you get the care that you need soon! But honestly, building a computer to serve up TV shows probably isn't the best for working on that... Not trying to tell you how to live your life, but maybe find a more active hobby?
Good to hear!
