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.

The 8GB model is $10-$15 more. Might be worth ir but grabbed this one since the case seems a bit better. Good deal.

Thank you All. Grabbed one for building a Plex client (TBD on Kodi or RasPlex) / PiHole and maybe other apps.

I set up pihole and it's been fantastic. Took some work to whitelist things but overall a stellar little web blocker.

If you're using Pi-Hole and happy with a network-wide DNS, look at Adguard Home as well. It works similar to Pi-Hole but has far better user interface in my opinion.

There is a way to torrent straight to the pi. I use a seedbox so that's not anything I do but there is a way though I think you'd need to install the regular OS and then use add-ons for the media server and torrents client.

Honestly if I get around to it I may check out a full setup past libreelec to see if I can have it access ftp directly. I can access the server via ftp and ssh so it's easy to move files over but would be easier if they went straight to the pi from my seedbox.

I think 4GB will be enough. I use mine to stream 1080p mkv files, sometimes to multiple devices simultaneously and it has no problem. Whenever I check the usage I'm never more than 4gb of ram used. I got 8gb for potential future proofing

thats sound awesome just make wondering what real extras that i get from ds218+ sinology vs this

mostly i share video to multiples device with their ds video app

if you already have other accessories, Micro Center is selling the 8gb version for $75 everyday.
