The good news is that assuming you’ve invested in a solid NAS to start with, any modular components after that can often be upgraded to improve performance, so if you wind up with an underwhelming load-out, it’s not the end of the world. However, choosing or building a NAS of your own can be complicated without a touch of insight into what each hardware component does and why it’s important to emphasize CPU and HDD arrays on your server whether it’s for home or business media purposes. For example, public Bluetooth hotspots and Wi-Fi networks in certain shops that offer media through their respective apps are utilizing a form of what Plex does on a NAS. You’d be surprised at how often NAS technology is implemented wherever you go. However, there are some pretty interesting and industrial-level NAS models out there that take things well beyond the home theater aspect and into the scale of public access for employees, clients and guests in general. When remote streaming, the upload speed will be a key factor.A NAS is effectively a normal computer but simplified, usually being much smaller than a traditional tower PC and focusing the majority of its logic board real estate on hard drive connections. Also, internet speed is irrelevant when using Plex on your home network. Many people here use external drives as opposed to a NAS or JBOD. If you don't have issues currently, then you don't need a dedicated streaming device. With that said, rule of thumb is to make sure your clients support the codecs that your media is in and Direct Play instead. If you don't use subtitles, you should be fine.Ī Plex Pass will allow one to use their GPU or iGPU on the server, and if it's modern enough, it can easily handle a 4K HDR transcode. If you do not have a Plex Pass, the CPU will do software transcoding and 4K HDR will "kill" it if your CPU isn't powerful enough.
If you have the newer LG TVs, they do not support DTS, audio will be transcoded (converted) to another codec on the Plex Server when this happens and you have subtitles enabled, it will force a video transcode as well.
