Currently I’ve got a RPi4 without Coral, running Frigate with 2 cams, HA, Paperless, Photoview and Qbittorrent. This works well but maxes out the RPi4. As I want to add Immich and more cams, I have to upgrade. Budget allows for either a USB Coral with the existing RPi4 or buy a secondhand HP Prodesk 600 g4 with Intel 8th gen. According to Frigate I can use Openvino for object detection. Otherwise, I could add a Coral mini pcie, with a mini pcie to pcie adapter. But that stretches the budget. Besides frigate the HP should be able to run the rest.
Any thoughts?
Interesting re the wifi chip, as all posts I’ve found said it only works for a wifi card. Do you have a source for that?
Yeah, no wifi is no problem. It’ll be connected via cable
Oh I’m not sure if it actually works. I thought they just made one to fit that slot
