Hey there, thanks for the kind words! Glad to hear you’re enjoying the content.
If you’re looking for alternatives to the Aoostar QTR Pro Intel N100 at a similar price point and with enough power for a simple Plex setup, there are a few solid options out there. Here are a couple of alternatives worth considering:
Beelink Mini S12 Pro – This model is pretty close in performance to the N100 and comes with the latest Intel Alder Lake-N CPUs, which are also efficient for light Plex servers. You’ll get decent processing power, especially if you're okay running your own OS.
GMK NucBox – Another affordable option, it’s compact, has good connectivity, and is powered by Intel Jasper Lake processors (N5105 or N6005). It’s sufficient for a basic Plex server and won’t break the bank.
MINISFORUM NPB5 – On the higher end of the budget but good for its price-to-performance ratio, the NPB5 is solid for Plex and media server duties, with room to upgrade storage if needed.
