Jellyfin media server. I have another one acting as my router (with a small managed switch and openWRT) and one more pi5 i am using as a retro console. That one uses 2 nvme m.2 drives but the pi4 doesnt support nvme, only sata.

That works with a raspberry? Those tiny 10€ microcomputers?

Yeah, cant do any transcoding though, but i dont need 4k for everything. Though as long as my client can play the format of the video then theres no issue. It would be easier with a mini PC but im enjoying learning linux and really liking the rasberry pi in general.
In terms of SSD. I could use a HDD. But it comes with 2 disadvantages. 1 is that media i copy from other devices to the drive takes A LOT longer to transfer. And 2, i have a big clunky HDD on my desk next to my 5 inch Pi… just makes more sense to use an SSD.
But essentially i guess its just not great to assume that there is no use case for them for home users just because you dont have a use case for them personally.
