Stick with 6×4TB SSDs or move to large HDDs for a Plex NAS?
SSDs are wasted on a NAS, don't bother. The bottleneck is your network connection. Its like taking a 5 gallon bucket and dumping it into a drinking straw. Its not going to go through any faster than a regular water bottle. If you have SSDs laying around then use them, but you will get the same speed
