Honestly the minipc with quad core Intel processors provide enough power for a media server minus the transcoding.

The RPi hardly handles transcoding
Thanks for the update.

Does this work well for a Plex server or is it better to get a cheap laptop? I also have an older PI 3, it seems I can use that device, but I am concerned about the performance. Any insight or recommendations?
I really like my pi4 for running music on Plex. I used to hate it...it had constant issues. I adjusted my setup by hooking up the pi with a Network cable (previously on wifi.) It was perfect after that. I need to try out other content to see if it works well on the Pi.

Thanks for the information. I am hoping to run videos from it. If you test it, please let me know and I may purpose my PI 3 for Plex. My hard drive that I recently purchased was 5TB so my Blu-ray players will not read the drives as the limit is 4TB per the manual. It is either that or the drive is under powered with usb power. I tried both a Sony and Samsung player and neither works.

If you try would like to hear of your results.

I bought the 4GB version for $45 due to the Target exploit from last year. At $75, this seems like a pretty good deal.
---Edit---

Most merchants show out of stock, unfortunately.

I bought my pi4 from another authorized pi seller...starts with a V and slickdeals blocks their name..odd...they shipped fairly fast. I'm using their 3amp power supply and it's working well to power an external m.2 drive on usb3 and 2 controller 2.4ghz adapters.

The difference between the kits you're asking about is the accessories. Power supply, case, and memory card. I looked at these when I was shopping and decided to buy the pieces separately. Mainly to get the Argon one v2 case.

FyI for everyone..I learned through trial and error to move my logitech f710 usb adapters away from the pi4 via the included extenders. The controllers work perfectly now. 3 feet was all it took to fix weird connection drops.

I'm always wondering why we need a 8gb rpi except game server like minecraft.
I use it for Home Assistant with InfluxDB ... and if you're running multiple add-ons.. extra memory helps.
You can also use it to run multiple container apps which requires additional memory.

Same. As is typical for me, it is still in the box.

How to Setup a Raspberry Pi Plex Server [pimylifeup.com]
Another question: Can a pi4 run a VPN+Plex Server+NAS+pihole or would a nuc be more appropriate? How many of these could a pi4 w/ 8GB handle?

There is a lot of info out there about each of these individually, but combinations are very sparse

TIA
