“Super capable device for running docker containers for home automation and media serving.
This now sits inside my network cabinet doing the above duties in place of the containers running on an old Xeon rack mount server using 90% less energy.”
“I was looking for a replacement for an 8 year old Apple that was now running as an Ubuntu Plex server. I've been impressed at how this performs the role - small but powerful kit. Definitely deserves its 5 stars.”
“This thing is amazing, it's fast, it's professional, it runs so many os's with ease, pay the extra few quid for the 8gb version, you won't regret it.”
“I've had my Pi 4 B for nearly a month and it has helped me learn cybersecurity, IT networking and how to setup servers. I really like the compact nature and low power use.”
“11/10 I will be buying another.
Bought it for use as a small Plex server. I was streaming my media through an old full sized tower i3 PC that took up too much space in my house.
Installing and setting up my plex server through ubuntu on this Pi model has been the best decision I have made for my home streaming. Not only has it allowed me to get rid of a big clunky box sitting in the corner of my room, it streams my media much more efficiently, with less buffering and uses far less power.
Not only is the Raspberry Pi great, my purchase clean and ease due to a no fuss website. My Pi was even sent same day and arrived very swiftly all while beating the prices of other sites.
I will be buying another for a Retro Pi build soon. I have some friends that need to be shown who is boss.”
