DiskStation DS920+

I run Jellyfin on my Synology DS920+ NAS. IMO, only Synology's plus series of NAS devices (with a GPU) are suitable for a consumer grade Jellyfin server. Among the latest models, only the DS425+ has the GPU needed for Jellyfin hardware transcoding - - that's probably the NAS I'd get if I bought one

Just a few days ago I pulled the trigger on the DXP6800 Pro. What a jump in performance from my old Synology 920+. I picked up 2 more Seagate IronWolf drives and now running six 12tb drives in RAID 10. I only glanced at the DXP4800, but I thought if I am going to upgrade then go 6 bay. Nice that the

The ugreen nas option is pretty nice. It has the quicksync support so it will be good for plex transcoding since you have a plex pass. People are suggesting NAS + mini pc because it allows some room for growth. I started off with a Synolgy DS920+ and used it to run plex directly as well as other ser

Same situation here, ran Synology Photos on a DS920+ for a couple years before switching. The memory creep on long timeline scrolls is real and it never got fixed properly in my experience. Annoying on a tablet especially. Immich is genuinely better. The client-side memory issue does not exist in th

Plex Media Server on a mini-PC. Storage on DAS or NAS. The Shield is a great client. It is a terrible server. You do not need a Plex Pass for hardware transcoding with a Shield. However, that advantage is more than offset by the issues. The prime problem is that the server is prone to simply disappe

I run my immich on a Synology NAS 920+ and works like a charm. Yes, the initial Machine Learning process took a very long time (several days) after my initial load, but after that, it's been running smoothly all the time. Everything loads fast.

I have Roon installed on Synology 920+ and I have no issues with Tidal integration. What are you running Roon server on? Is server/core wired or wireless ?

Out of suggested price, but to consider based on perfomance - around 4 times better than N100 and in comparision to N97 - around 5 times is for example U58 Mini PC based on AMD Ryzen 7 5825U. Problem is transcoding - I find out that is worse than on Intel. I don't need it this, but it is crucial inf

on the NAS: to the immich .env file add IMMICH_WORKERS_INCLUDE=api to the docker-compose.yml file under redis: add ports: - "6379:6379" under database: add ports: - "5433:5432" On the remote worker Mount the uploads and postgres directories to your filesystem to the immich .env file add DB_HOSTNAME=<N

I started the same way as you did about a decade ago.. ITX MB, small CPU, couple of disks.. But soon I've soon realised it's much simpler to buy readymade NAS. Anything exposed to the internet 24/7 I know I cannot protect as good as any decent company. If you give it some thought, they will save you
