    Question which Raspberry/Linux should i buy

    Hello,

    i'm trying Asset UPnP on Windows and like how it works. Now i plan to buy a raspberry with external HD and install asset.
    The raspberry should only run Asset. 2 Questions:

    1) do i benefit from more ram? 8GB instead of 4GB?
    2) which linux do you recommend me (easy to install and manage, maybe with GUI)?

    Best regards
    Harald

    Hi, I run Asset on a RPi2 with DietPi, as a dedicated UPnP server.
    There is very little resource usage once the initial database build is complete.

    Thanks for your answer. Good to know that it works on a RPi2, but i will buy a RPi4, so brings more ram benefits?
    Is there a graphical UI for the Asset Configuration on the RPi with dietpi?

    There is.
    Have a screenshot, but can’t seem to upload on my iPad.
    But all very easy to use.
    I’m sure Asset will work well on a RPi4.
    I started out using Asset on an original RPi so the RPi2 was a big step up.
