My first seedbox was literally an old office PC (that I got from an electronics recycler) with a chonky HDD in it running Ubuntu and sharing it’s drive on my network. Was it ideal? Hell no lol I literally had an old 10inch LCD screen, keyboard, and mouse that I had to leave hooked up to it as I couldn’t figure out out how to dial into it remotely.
I learned a lot since then but NGL the old setup was so simple I miss it sometimes lol

I have an old and slightly niche/obscure PC that I use for media hosting etc. and it works quite well.
