Hi there. Been watching your YouTube videos but still feeling a little lost so thought I'd reach out.
Looking for a 2 bay NAS to use primarily as a Plex Media Server.
Want to go as cheap as I can without risking a huge sacrifiece on performance.
The majority of my video files are 1080p (H.264), with the odd 4K (H.265 10bit) file every now and then.
Everything is pretty much being done locally, and only very occasionally over the internet. And I don't believe I need/use transcoding as I don't have a Plex Pass.
The most expensive options I'm looking at are:
- Synology DS220+
- QNAP TS-253D-4G
- QNAP TS-231K
Other than that, my other options within budget are probably:
- Synology DS220j
- Synology DS218
- TerraMaster F2-210
- Western Digital My Cloud EX2 Ultra
- TerraMaster F2-221
- TerraMaster F2-422
Appreciate any help you're able to provide.
Thanks in advance!
