Hi, I am looking for advice for my first NAS purchase.
I have three use cases for this device: (1) Plex Server (2) Homebridge Host (3) Data Backups. From looking at videos/reviews from your channel and elsewhere, it seems like synology have the best OS and are the most reputable, but their hardware seems weaker compared to the competition.
My plex library has a mix of 1080p and 4k media, and I am unlikely to ever have more than 2 users at the same time, usually just 1. Cost efficiency, reliability, and low power draw are key focuses of mine in my search.
Thanks,
Armaan
