I want to make a plex nas so I don’t have to deal with Netflix and streaming services, here are some questions I have.

  1. What NAS should I get? I’ve heard Qnap is good, but I want to know around what nas I should get

  2. Is plex somewhat simple to setup and is there other software I should look at?

  3. Is there anything else I should know?

Edit: I ended up using an old laptop and running a file share from it then installing kodi on the other devices and using it as a storage point.

    Sure, but for early users they can just go with the defaults and it’ll work

      I agree, but that still requires a lot of research and thoughts on the ideal zRAID layout.

        I guess….

        Alternatively, treat your zfs as a jbod and then have regular backups.
