I'm setting up a NAS primarily for PLEX and media(audio, video, pictures) storage/streaming
To that end I have purchased the following:
QNAP TVS-h1688X-W1250-32G
WD Gold 10TB HD(WD102KRYZ4) 4 each
WD Red 1TB SSD (WDS100T1R0A) 4 each
Now I am looking at which M.2 SSD NVME cards to add.
I intend to use these drives for my system volume in a Raid 1 configuration.
*Do you recommend using these SSD's in this way?
*Which brand and size do you recommend for this purpose?
It seems like the 32G RAM included is a good start but I'm not sure it is enough.
*Should I add more RAM while I have the case cracked and if so how much?
