I've a rack cabinet at home, and a little Pi 4 running Plex on a single USB 3.0 HDD. I'd like to add in a NAS, but considering a rack mounted NAS for Plex as everything else is racked in there and it makes sense form factor wise.
Admittedly I believe these are underpowered for transcoding, however the only viewing I really do is on my TVs and Apple TV over Ethernet at home. Would a rack NAS be up for the challenge? And if not, could I use the NAS for storage only and let the Pi do the heavy lifting in terms of transcoding instead do you think?
I think I've watched every video you've made for the last 2 years or so but I can't find enough data to counter my inexperience and hope you could advise. Many thanks for your time, and great channel!
