Getting the most out of my old NAS

Gooner

New Around Here
I currently have a WDCloudMirror NAS drive. It has twin 2TB drives in Raid 1, so I have 2TB available. Currently, I only use the NAS to stream my ripped CD music collection to my surround sound system using its Twonky media server and am using less than 0.5TB of the NAS capacity. The NAS is old but has been very reliable. However, it is limited in its software offering. I am considering buying a single Hikvision DS-2CD2347G2-LU (ColorVu) 4MP PoE IP security camera and a Pi500+. I would run Frigate NVR in a Docker container to manage the camera. I could also run Jellyfin Media server in another Docker container as an upgrade to my Twonky server, leaving my NAS as just a storage unit. It would all run on wired CAT 6e cabling. I have developed this project with Co-pilot, but as I have had mixed results with Co-pilot’s recommendations, I would appreciate some human comments.
