Nas Recommendation - Enquiries - 02-22-2024
hi can you recommend a nas for plex server and file backup, ad-blocking and maybe home assistant in the future, at the moment I'm using my gaming pc for plex server but would prefer to have a lower powered system
RE: Nas Recommendation - ed - 02-23-2024
For your needs, I recommend considering the Synology DS423+. This NAS is well-suited for serving as a Plex server and handling file backups while offering reliable performance and ample storage capacity. With its quad-core Intel Celeron processor and 2GB of RAM, it can efficiently handle transcoding for Plex and multitasking without issues. Additionally, its versatile DiskStation Manager (DSM) operating system supports various packages for ad-blocking and potential future use with Home Assistant. The DS423+ provides a balance of affordability and functionality, making it a solid choice for your home setup.
