Depends on your use case. A desktop consumes more electricity, larger, noisier, but is more powerful for desktop applications. Pi's are opposite plus has GPIO header for projects and expansion HATS.



The Aluminum edition case appears to be a remarked FLIRC case, which was the original Pi passive cooled case, but IMHO the newer Argon Neo, iUniker, and Geekworm passive cases are superior. They tend to have contact sinks for chips other than the cpu on the Pi that produce heat, and gaps for GPIO and camera ribbons. Search "pi 4 passive aluminum case" on Amazon for examples.

It's overkill for the pi4, but pihole [pi-hole.net] is amazing. It's a network wide spam filter. No more ads on mobile

I'm pretty sure that's what they were trying to say with the "overkill" part, though to be fair they didn't word it well.

Seems like a good deal for the 8gb starter, in for one.

At these prices, why not just buy a desktop?

I'm seeing a 20% off coupon on the extreme Kit, making it ~ $120 + tax. That seems like a SD.

GPIO. One has it, the other does not.

Are any of the options a good deal to run a media/backup center? Have a 12TB external disk I could use for storage.

These are the everyday prices. I have the 8gb which is overkill but it works flawlessly as a media streamer. I friggin love this little thing. It comes preloaded with libreelec as an option and that works as a kodi media box. It's awesome

The 4GB or 8GB would work. I don't use a 12TB disc but I've been running a 4TB media server off my 8GB for the last 9(?) months or so. Been flawless. The 8gb is overkill though, at least for media streaming.

Because you can't get a desktop anywhere close to these prices (i know, I looked) that has the features of the pi, hell you can't even get a diskless nas that works as well as this for anywhere near the price. If you don't need windows then this is a much better deal.

What if I want to run a torrent client and a backup software in the background? 4GB still enough?


I assume Pi 4 can't really do Plex transcoding?
