Qnap for Plex question - Enquiries - 11-23-2023
I saw your video that the TS-464 is the all around best but I am looking for more storage so I am considering the TS-664 with WD 20 TB or 22 TB NAS Red Pro Drives set to RAID 1 (3x3). My question is would the 664 be a good option for Plex? If so how do you setup Plax and RAID options on the NAS?
RE: Qnap for Plex question - ed - 11-24-2023
Absolutely, the TS-664 paired with WD 20 TB or 22 TB NAS Red Pro Drives in a RAID 1 setup (3x3) would indeed provide ample storage. When it comes to Plex, this NAS is capable of handling 4K streaming locally. However, for remote streaming, it can efficiently transcode up to 1080p. If your plan involves transcoding 4K content remotely through Plex, you might want to consider a NAS equipped with at least a 12th gen i5 for optimal performance. Feel free to explore the possibilities, and for more details on setting up Plex and RAID configurations, check out this informative link: Plex and RAID Setup Guide (
