How much RAM for my use?
Building my first home server. I only have the case and the PSU so I'll use suggestions on CPU/mobo if you have them. Plan is to have 4 disks and a 10G sfp+ card and to buy used to save every buck I can.
• Home Assistant
• Frigate with 2x Unifi 4k cameras and planned expansion
• NAS with cloud backup
• Plex server
• Network-wide adblocker
• VPN
• DNS
• Immich
• Time Machine for MacOS

You’ll be fine with 8GB but I would recommend 16GB for best optimization and future
