Running another host is difficult, especially when you only have one computer to run the server on. The server is an old Dell laptop (Inspiron 5547), and I do not have any more hard drives, SSDs or computers that I can keep always-on to run replication.

I've seen Postgresql tested on a Raspberry Pi. Performance is bad, but if you don't have much writing going on it might do as a slave.
