Hello,

How many gigs of memory is best for Raspberry Pi 4 Model B to use with psx-pi-smbshare There are next options: 1GB, 2GB, 4GB, 8GB.

What I have to choose?

I have a Raspberry Pi 4 B 2GB model. psx-pi-smbshare isn't that memory intensive. I have a network folder attached and at most it uses 100+MB of memory. You should be fine with 1GB, but if you use custom scripts you might run out of physical memory. Raspberry Pi 4 B 2GB model seems to be the sweet spot. As you can see below, there is still quite a lot of available memory left.
