Cheap and cheerful

#1
Hi. For the last 3/4 years l have used my wd my cloud home 4gb single bay device. I use it exclusively with Plex when away from home, so my needs are minimal, it has recently gone belly up, l would like to burgle it for the HDD. ( Good luck to me on that. I'm not impressed with WD so am thinking of getting another brand similar 1bay device which is Plex friendly. Can you suggest the best low budget/compatible device for me. I'm a technology idiot but nevertheless learnt such a lot from your videos. How on earth do you find the time to put out so much info, keep up the good work and thanks. GREAT COMMITMENT. I look forward to hearing from you

Thank you for your kind words! I truly appreciate your support and am glad to hear that my videos have been helpful.

I'm sorry to hear about your WD My Cloud Home device. Since you're looking for a budget-friendly, one-bay NAS that's Plex-compatible, I recommend considering the following options:

QNAP TS-133 (A55 2GB, 1-Bay) - Priced at around $139, this device offers solid performance and is well-suited for Plex streaming. It's user-friendly, making it a great choice for someone who's not very tech-savvy.

Synology DS124 (RTD1619B, 1GB, 1-Bay) - Available for about $148.99, this NAS provides excellent software support and Plex compatibility. Synology’s interface is very intuitive, which should make setup and management easier for you.

Both of these options are reliable and should meet your streaming needs while being budget-friendly.
