Greetings, I'm a long time viewer of the channel and would love to utilize your affiliate links to make my first foray into the NAS world. I'm considering something like the DS923+ but wanted to sanity check via your handy advice form here on your website. I self host plex on my personal machine, currently sitting around 20TB of internal data, but I've also dabbled in hosting project files for myself and my peers. I'm in entertainment (animation / vfx / games) and am likely going to need to expand my local storage for a few personal projects with friends. As of right now if I just offload my plex from my personal computer to a NAS that would be fine, I could host our project files on my local machine, but it would be advantageous to build something out that I could sync to a friends house in a mirrored setup (assuming projects go well haha). I have a modest 12u rack where my pc and some other peripherals are hosted, I'd considered a rack mounted NAS but they're pricey!
