I have a lot of mixed junk hardware which I managed to built into few PCs in my house (Not just for me)
Now I need to add another PC, because I bought two WD Red Plus 4TB to finally have a dedicated PC as a NAS (I will simply connect it to the router and mount in other PCs as network drive)
Right now I have a B450 motherboard with 3200g. But, I want to use this PC as the NAS (+HTPC, because there is a place to sit near the router)
What should I do if I'm on a tight budget?
Thanks!

- Buy a Ryzen 3 3350G Pro (some weird OEM CPU sold by a retailer near me) and pair it with the B450 motherboard, for $155 (+The A320 motherboard for the 3200g for total of $200)
- Maybe get an Intel system instead (i3-10105F + cheap H410 for $175)
Thanks!
