I want to make a plex nas so I don’t have to deal with Netflix and streaming services, here are some questions I have.
-
What NAS should I get? I’ve heard Qnap is good, but I want to know around what nas I should get
-
Is plex somewhat simple to setup and is there other software I should look at?
-
Is there anything else I should know?
Edit: I ended up using an old laptop and running a file share from it then installing kodi on the other devices and using it as a storage point.
in addition to “dedicated Nas + compute node” and “just use a desktop” suggestions, there’s the microserver option in between. Small, but has enough power to run stuff other than storage.
Hp proliant microserver is what I use, you can try getting a previous generation from second hand market.
