The last HTPC Guides giveaway was a Banana Pi from Lemaker which Tim won. This time around the Media Server Giveaway is a Raspberry Pi 3 for the lucky winner sponsored by element14.
The winner will receive the Raspberry Pi 3, a case, SD card with Minibian Jessie and the HTPC Guides Media Server Installer and a 5V 2A power adapter. You will have everything you need to get started with setting up a powerful, low electricity footprint home media server. See these benchmarks for the kind of speeds you can expect from a Raspberry Pi 3 NAS.
