N100 and friends is a good NAS+youtube machine. Some mini PCs allow multiple NVMe drives. For a few more bucks you can get entry-level (but much more powerful) Ryzen CPU in a similar small box

A number of people reached out about the Beelink SER4-7 - which are about double the cost of a bare N100. Nice machines and I may have considered them if they'd been more popular at the time.

Certainly, if the main use-case is fastest speed in a straight line - get something with a Ryzen like the Acemagic I mentioned at the end with Geekbench scores.

		I see Ryzen 5 3550H + 16GB + 512GB + EUT VAT + free shipping at 152EUR (random Aliexpress deal, says "Ninkear G3 Pro") - not much considering bundled up RAM and Disk, N100 costs a little bit less. Braindead YouTube-solution would be to buy this device, connect to TV, wireless mouse and install Windows 10/11 LTSC, install firefox + favorite addons. N100 is barely enough for 4k@60, and Ryzen gets a bit more juice to live comfortably
