I am currently looking for Thin Clients on ebay to use as my main server instead of the RPi 4 with an external USB drive.

I found decent offers for:

  • Dell Optiplex 3020M with i5-4590T 4GB RAM 120GB SSD
  • Dell Wyse 5070 with Celeron J4105 or Pentium Silver J5005 both with 8GB RAM 64GB SSD

Given the current prices of new hardware my questions are:

  • Should I go for 8GB RAM?
  • Or are 4GB RAM fine and I should take double the storage?

Things I want to run on this server:

  • Karakeep
  • FreshRSS
  • Paperless-NGX or Papra
  • Immich
  • Booklore

Because I plan to mostly use podman I tried to check for virtualization and all three suppoert Intels VT-x technolgy, will that be fine for my use case?

Well ok let me clarify, Yunohost says during install it could use up to so with a lot of the stuff disabled I'm sure it's not a full 5gb.
