Some kind of backup solution (online, usb external drives, other?).What kinds of HDD are a good value? Do you like shucking external drives?.Storage via some kind of raid, unraid, freenas? My leaning is using a typical full or server case filled with hdd (unless convinced otherwise).One related question is does anyone know the best value plex HW transcode processor for the dollar? I haven't seen any good guides on best performance HW transcode per $$$.I have plex pass so I am hoping to do HW transcode.
Enough to handle multiple (2-4) 1080p transcodes, possibly a single 4k, but from what I have read it sounds like direct stream is better for 4k anyways and I don't have a setup for 4k yet (just thinking about the future). Would like a moderately powerful processor (but also want to consider power usage).Reasonably powered machine with a clear upgrade path if needed.Here are some of my goals/considerations. I am looking for the best bang for my buck plex media server for $1000. I am hoping to take things to the next level in the near future. Please go to the relevant subreddits and support forums, for example:īeen lurking for a while and currently running a very simple RPI4 with attached USB HDD.

For instance, there is no drive mirroring on this NAS and this means that if you have drives that are not spinning up at all times, you will not be able to access your files. However, those features can be a bit lacking. This NAS does come with a very short list of standard features - you will not find anything in the software that you would not find in other high end NAS. The cons do point out that this NAS is slightly more expensive than some of the other options, but if you use the software on a daily basis, this will not usually matter. It also can handle all of the data that you need to store on a network and with it being four bays, it is a great choice for a home user or a business that needs to manage a lot of data at once. When looking at the pros, this NAS is great for storing media and for backup. Although it has four devices instead of two, there are still differences that users need to look out for when choosing this NAS. The review for the QNAP TS-451D2-4G is mostly focused on its four-bay NAS for Plex.
