On the software side of things I believe Plex is the software I need?Įdit - I have just found the QNAP TS-253A which is slightly more expensive but may be better suited to my needs as I don't know if the 251+ can handle 4k content? I should also point out that most of my library is 720p and 1080p HD with some 4K content. My search for the cheapest NAS to meet my needs led me to the QNAP TS-251+ which I will probably end up getting but I wanted to make sure all my information was correct as I don't want to be buying this if I could have got a cheaper NAS that would be suitable. Since this is to be my first time entering into the NAS market I was looking for the cheapest one, only to read that it wouldn't be very good for my needs for media streaming due to something called transcoding and that I should consider quad core. During my research the two names that stuck out were Synology and QNAP. Having been hearing a lot about NAS and media streaming lately I decided to look into it as a possibility. I am currently organising my files that are scattered all over the place on several hard drives both internal and external (I seem to have accumulated a lot of of junk over the years) which has lead me to find I have a couple TB of TV and films.
I am new to the NAS market so please bare with me.
