Would you recommend to use a RPi 5 or a second hand Lenovo mini pc (i3 6100t, 8gb ram) or something else?

    Oh yeah, that is true. Mini PC has a proper ssd nvme.

    Thanks for the feedback! Will look at the NAS you recommend, but i thik i want more freedom to tinker. Will definitely look into proxmox!

      I don’t have direct experience with them, but my understanding from youtubes is that the ugreen NASes are specifically designed for you to just ignore their OS and install your own (so truenas or proxmox).

      Hardware tinkering is more limited but… there is very much a question of how much of that people actually do.

        The first thing I did with my ugreen was install truenas, then learn how to use truenas.

        While I’ve migrated several docker compose apps over, I feel I’m still learning the truenas part of the system.
