Ideally I want something with a small form-factor, but more bays for additional storage might come in handy. Definitely won’t need the DVD drive though :D I also don’t want to have to pay for that W10 license since I’ll be running linux on it. I don’t have Plex pass, but good point about the Intel 8th gen CPUs.
I like the Chromebox suggestion, I hadn’t thought of that as a possibility. Something like that might be perfect, thanks.
