I'm running it on in docker and I've connected it to my NAS mounted as a network drive. I set it up a few months ago, do it's better since then.
Don't even worry about the hardware, I've got it set up on a raspberry Pi 5. It'll take a while to do all the classification on your existing library, but new photos get classified fast enough. You're unlikely to need to do a smart search immediately after you've taken the pic.
For clarity, I'm not on Windows (obv, raspberry Pi), and I'm not using docker directly; I'm running HAOS on my pi, and I'm using the immich add-on. I know it uses docker, but I can't tell you the exact command to run.
That’s amazing. I have a Pi 4 currently running home assistant and pihole. Sounds like my pi family might be growing soon. Had no idea the 5 could run those features. Appreciate you
