Help me build a home server with a budget of €100/$109 (I live in Denmark)

I am thinking of buying it used how much ram who'd i need and what CPU

What I want to run on it

Nextcloud

RSS feed

transmission (if possible for the budget)

Maybe a few other small services

Photoprism (if possible for the budget)

Is this realistic for my budget?

Edit: Thanks alot for your really helpful comments

I have looked at

Lenovo Thinkcenter sælges. i5-3470 8gb ram 256gb HDD

Price 44 US Dollars 40 Euros

2

I5 4570 Vpro 3.2 ghz 4 gb ram 500 GB Hdd. (3.5")

Price

46 Euros 51 US Dollars

(It's a bit more expensive and has less RAM, but thinking of that, if the other seller has sold)

Both deals sound amazing to me, but get 8GB or prepare for RAM upgrade. 4GB could be enough for what you listed there, but you might find more services to run in the near future 🤪

I think those tiny PCs are perfect if you dont need more SATA ports. Its hard to beat them with that low price

That think center looks perfect for this use case. Especially if it’s running Debian or arch.
