Budget NAS for media

[Enquiries]

I want to store and play back my media collection which currently uses about 6TB for my DVD/BD collection. I don't anticipate adding a lot more to it in the future. I think the PLEX server will work for me and it is unlikely that more than 2 users will ever be trying to play media at the same time.
