You would be fine but setting up these things take a bit of homework to pick, install and configure an OS of choice. One thing you'd want…

NAS compares on YouTube has reviewed both units this week and seemed to like both of them. The N5 is modular and a great concept, and the…

Big difference is this thing can transcode itself. The microserver was great but that lack of transcoding caused me a lot of headaches back…

Horses for courses, will the N100 play GTA6? No Does it run at a low power draw, transcode Plex or make a great router with dual ethernet?…

These look to be usb c powered as well so a replacement power brick is something that is pretty easily attainable.

I'm all for self hosting and have recently started dabbling I'm proxmox and mucked about with an old pc using a usb ethernet adapter to see…

Normally the uplink is bigger, this switch is a little odd that 1gbps is still an uplink, in this instance it's effectively just a non Poe…

Generally most basic switches for most people's use case are gigabit across the board and it's fine. You only need anything faster if you…

Follow highway 1. Sorted 😂

Honestly, proxmox wasn't as hard as I was anticipating. Some googling will find some great YouTube videos on how to set it up and there's a…

Which is available in the Microsoft store, so it's easier than it ever was to install.

Cheaper maybe, but I'd suggest getting something that can handle hard drives properly like the wtr pro. NAS isn't too resource intense…

You dont have to run plex on the nas itself. My nas is an old 4th gen dell optiplex that will be horrific at transcoding. I've got a 7th…
