I have looked at reviews and brands like WD, QNAP, SYNOLOGY, NAS brands and it seems overwhelming. I would like a NAS instead of having a computer constantly running to access my media. I currently have 3 external ssd, and HDD. I am looking to stream my huge video library and store photos for my parents to access etc. I have had my ssd external drive crash so a backup would be helpful. I read about transcoding and how using an app like Plex causes some issues and that Plex is able to use your media files? I am looking to store my videos music, photos, documents in my own cloud and run a third party app like Plex possibly as it would have a nice gui and organize my videos. I am not looking to spend alot of money I would do 3-400. Any assistance much appreciated.
