I bought a Biostar J4125NHU motherboard and put it in a small case with two 2.5 HDDs and two SSDs and am using it to download shows and movies from a Usenet provider and stream them with Jellyfin.

The motherboard was a huge pain to work with, and I had to return two (!) units; I made the third one work. The first two would not boot in the same configuration.

I set up the box with NixOS. Here is its flake: https://github.com/fnune/bilbo

The NixOS experience was fun!
