I'm thinking of setting up a NAS as a Plex server and would love some help. I have a ton of movies (some in 4K) that I'd like to be able to stream to TV. I'm running Plex on an old Macbook right now and it's time for an upgrade. I'm thinking either the Synology DS220+ or QNAP TS-464 with Seagate IronWolf Pro drives in a RAID setup for redundancy, but you all are obviously the experts, so I'd love to hear what you think. I'm pretty good at technical setup, so I'm not too worried about that. Just want to make sure I get the right hardware. Not a requirement, but a system that's quieter would be a plus as well.
