Hello I am wanting to start making a media server for local movie streaming.

I was looking for a low power option for the hardware this is where i thought the raspberry pi would be good but i saw that on the web site that the pi 5 is around 100 too 150 and that's a bit much for me for just the computing part of it.

is there any cheaper alternative and i am fine with learning docker for omv but i was wanting to just see if there was a way for me to use Truenas so using jelly fin is a bit easier. Sorry if my question is a bit stupid i am new too Homelabbing
