PLEX? - Enquiries - 12-31-2022
I have a Alienware Aurora R12 i7 32GB Ram & GeForce RTX 3060 which I currently use for my Plex server. It is also my at home computer for everything I do. I keep my files on a Drobo FS. I just purchased a DS923+ to replace my drobo and wondered if I should move my Plex server to the Synology?
I currently just use Plex to stream my own movies and music.
Thanks as always.
Happy New Year!
Phil

Nothing works better then Plex server with a dedicated GPU card. But if you want to save on your energy bills, ds923+ will be cheaper to run. It will stream anything in a local network.
Remote access will be limited to 1080p content though.
You can also lin ds 923+ and your existing Plex server as an additional source for the videos.
I hope this helps.
