Hi, I hope you're well.
After some advice on the best NAS (preferably Synology as I believe they have the best / most user-friendly software) to use predominantly as a Plex Media Server but also to store general files and music.
I don't want to go crazy with the budget and would like to future-proof as much as possible.
I'm thinking something along the lines of a 2-4-bay NAS with around 16TB.
Most files I have are H.264 @ 15-30 Mbps bit rate.
I do have the odd H.265 HEVC file @ 15-30 Mbps bit rate that will need transcoding
I've been looking mainly at the DS224+, DS723+ and DS923+ but I'm not sure which route to go down. There may even be a better option I am not looking at.
Let me know if you need any more info.
Thanks
Ben
