So. Many. Choices. - Enquiries - 11-07-2025

Hey there,

In short, I've got too many options and I'm paralysed by choice options. I'm looking to move away from Synology (currently DS918+) and my main use cases are data storage, Synology Drive, and Plex. Here's where the problem comes in: I currently have access to a lot of options: I've got a UNAS Pro, a MinisForum S100, a MinisForum MS-01 (96GB RAM), M4 Mac Mini (16GB, 2TB), etc. so I'm a bit overwhelmed by what I could/should do. I've tried Proxmox and it's a LOT, I don't have an Unraid license, and I've not yet tried TrueNAS... (came into the hardware after the passing of my best friend of nearly 20 years) so that's why I have all the options. I've got 7x 14TB Drives to hand, too, 3 of which are in the Synology already running Plex.

Help?! Smile

Thanks!

Chris
