Absolutely, your DIY NAS setup with the i9-9900k, 32GB RAM, and RTX 2080 looks promising for handling Plex and VMs. Given your preference to move away from Synology, Unraid seems like a solid choice for the operating system, offering flexibility and efficient management of your applications. With the powerful components at your disposal, you can seamlessly shift Plex to the DIY NAS and potentially run various VMs for your lab experiments. This transition should enhance your overall system performance, especially with your extensive list of applications.
