HP All-in-One 22 i3-N300 8GB/512GB 21.5in at R10,036 suits someone who wants a neat Plex admin station with its own screen, storage, and fewer loose parts on the desk. A compact all-in-one pc makes sense when the media library is managed from a visible workspace rather than hidden on a shelf.

Best all-in-one PC choice for this setup

The HP All-in-One 22 i3-N300 8GB/512GB 21.5in at R10,036 is the cleanest match because the 21.5in display is built in. That matters if you want to manage posters, folders, users, and playback settings without adding a separate screen to the corner of a study or lounge unit.

The 512GB storage on the HP All-in-One 22 i3-N300 8GB/512GB 21.5in at R10,036 is useful for the operating system, metadata, thumbnails, and a starter local library. It is not the same as a large archive drive, but it gives the machine enough internal space for the everyday management side of the media library.

For a tucked-away server shelf, the Minisforum UM750L at R4,600 is the cheaper compact alternative, but it gives up the built-in 21.5in screen of the HP All-in-One 22 i3-N300 8GB/512GB 21.5in at R10,036. The GEEKOM A8 Max at R12,900 is another compact option, but the HP is easier to justify when the desk setup needs a permanent display for quick checks.
