I am currently running plex media server on my Dell XPS-8900 pc with the following specs:
Intel® Core™ i7-6700K CPU @ 4.00GHz 4.01 GHz
16 GB Ram,Windows 10Pro, 64-bit operating system, x64-based processor.
I have tweak settings within PMS to allow my system to serve as a viable PMS. At times, I get buffering when watching videos that are either in 1080P or 4K. I have watched the system dashboard and my system does not seem to ever be really ever taxed but yet I get buffering on occasions. When I look at Synology DS1520+ units that seem to have great reviews acting a PMS, they seem to have specs that don’t match current system running even though my system is 7+ years old. Why would a Synology DS1520+ unit would be expected to run better than my current PC? Just trying to make sure I don’t invest in a mid-level nas system & still have buffering due to other issues in my set-up that to other issues in my set-up causing my buffering.
