I have a home server that stores and processes all my photos, using PhotoPrism. Things like face recognition does require a bit of a compute. A NUC is perfect for this use case.
- distances 2y agoThat's a nice use case, thanks for the tip about PhotoPrism!
- distances 2y agoJust as a quick update after trying out: seems like a very nice local photo album service. The initial scan will take a long while, but looks like Pi5 is quite enough to handle the service after that completes. I will need a larger SSD for my Pi if I intend to keep all my photos in this, though.
- kccqzy 2y agoI bought a 8TB SATA SSD for this. Currently it's already 15% full. The nice thing about my NUC is that it has Thunderbolt builtin so I can buy Thunderbolt drive bays.

- zimpenfish 2y agoI've got one that does PhotoPrism + other media (sabnzbd, gerbera, flexget) as a general "media storage" box, one that just runs a Minecraft server, and one that's "everything else" (currently Home Assistant, Grafana, Prometheus, my webcam bird detection stuff, NATS, etc.) Originally started with HA on a Pi 4 but it wasn't really up to it.
