YSK most US states assign their electoral college votes by the state's popular vote

Upgrading cheap/old computer
I am thinking about buying a home server for a wide range of things. I found some cheap old computers on amazon for around 80-90€. Is it worth it to upgrade them with another stick of ram or a larger SSD? 2 8gb RAM sticks are only around 15€, so that would be 100 in total. But my question is, is it worth it, or is the CPU...

How do I determine if a CPU is better than another one?
I’m looking at some old Intel and Pentium CPUs that are in a NUC. Are cores and max clock speed the only things that matter? Would a Pentium be good enough to run Immich? I have a i7-4790, and the NUCs I’m looking at range from a Pentium J5005 to a i3-1115G4. I do run Docker, does that affect anything?

Hard drive format?
I’m setting up a new hard drive and formatted it as exFAT. I liked the cross platform support and not having to deal with permissions when mounting the device. BUT it doesn’t support hardlinks, which I want to use for the *arr apps. Is NTFS the best pick, and I’ll just have to live with read only on mac?
