Self-Hosted Hardware Sizing Planner
Build a web-based planner that recommends CPU, RAM, storage, and GPU choices for common self-hosted stacks based on actual workloads, stream counts, and future expansion plans. The clearest demand is reducing uncertainty before users buy or repurpose hardware.
이것이 중요한 이유
When you plan a small self-hosted server, the hardest part is not finding powerful hardware but knowing how little you can safely get away with. You see people claiming tiny systems are enough, while others warn about future upgrades, virtual machines, or side workloads. That leaves you guessing whether your spare parts are overkill, barely enough, or a trap that will need replacing soon. You want a practical answer tied to your exact mix of media, photos, downloads, and utility apps, plus a clear view of what changes if you add users or new services later.

근거 요약
AI가 이 인사이트를 합성한 방법 — 직접 인용 없음
This was the most repeated theme in the discussion. Roughly twenty-one mentions across the batches pointed to users feeling uncertain about how much hardware they really need, with many responses arguing that much smaller systems can run similar app stacks. Several comments also warned that future expansion changes the picture, showing a clear need for scenario-based sizing rather than one-size-fits-all advice.
