Hi there,
Long time follower and subscriber, been looking at getting a NAS for far too long now.
Will be mainly using it at home with Plex for videos so on my local network. Occasionally will be streamed to remote devices but not primary use case.
Majority of files will be 4k hdr or Dolby vision etc or highest quality and sound I can achieve is my primary goal. I’m keeping an eye on 2nd hand markets for any deals but I think I need to narrow my selection down first. At present my files are on an external HDD at 8TB but this will expand as many of the files need updating to latest/higher quality so hence guessing around 20TB to start with for storage. Happy to compromise on software if I’m getting better hardware my partner is very tech savvy and I’m getting a lot better so the performance and quality of the media is the priority if I need to struggle a bit more in set up that’s ok.
Thanks so much
Oli
