NAS for Plex/Archive and possibly 4k editing (Single User)

#3
Hi Ed, andĀ thanks for taking the time to provide a very extensive list of options - it is very much appreciated.

Unfortunately DAS will not suit my Plex requirements, hence the request for suggestions for the best NAS Box for Plex (LAN).

Any NAS (not DAS) suggestions would be most welcome.

All the best
