I have a 16 year old ThinkPad running an NVR server for 4 cameras. It's not happy about it but it works >_<

Nice, the oldest I have is a netbook from 2008. It still works as a mpd server

Sweet, good application for it.

(I have been looking for a way to selfhost my music collection. Thanks!)

Glad I could help :)

Another way can be module-native-protocol-tcp, which is a module for pulseaudio to accept TCP traffic. I haven't done that myself, but I've seen it working. Maybe it can work even on older machines. The arch wiki has a nice section about it.
