I want to leave HAOS live and also run docker for an arr stack sparately.

I got a good deal on a pi5 16gb. I wont get another and NUCs are expensive. I want to put an arr stack, deluge and Jellyfin for local single device viewing. I don't see HA using more than 6gb of RAM, or close to it, so tere should be room to manage this.

I have a 256gb sd, I will change eventually to ssd, so I think I have the resources.

I just need the know how, could anyone advise on some walkthroughs that could allow me to not knock HA while I build out the other side.

Similar situation. I bought a Pi 5 16gb back when it was a good deal, ran HA in a container until things got awkward. My solution was to buy a P5 4gb as a dedicated HA OS device. Currently a P5 4gb is about $120 and a nvme drive + nvmd hat + power supply brings you to about $200. I know what’s still expensive and the Pi probably isn’t the best deal, but that’s how I prefer to run a HA. And a 4gb is like 1/3 the price of a 16gb Pi currently.
