Weekly Share-Your-Build Post
This is part of a weekly series of Share-Your-Build Post threads for everyone to share their builds, discuss different server solutions, and share knowledge and resources! Please be polite and helpful to beginners just getting started out, and we want to be as welcoming as we can to newcomers to this community.
Common info to share can include:
- Plex server make/model
- CPU and GPU info
- Storage solution info
- Plex add-on info (Radarr, Sonarr, Docker, etc.)
- other configuration info
Anyone who posts good starter guides, FAQs, and/or wikis may get their links added to the sidebar so the rest of the community can benefit!
Cheers!
Have an old Dell Optiplex with a E3-1200 Xenon running esxi with 32GB RAM and an Nvidia k620.
- Ubuntu server VM running Plex
- Ubuntu server VM running sonarr/radarr, Jackett and Qbit
- Synology DS412+ with 4x 4TB drives using SHR
Just got a smoking deal on a DS1819+ that I’ll be loading with 12TB drives.
My setup is extremely simple 😅
- A Synology DS218play (5 years old at this point)
- 2x6 TB Western Digital Red in RAID1
- Plex package from plex.tv, installed through Synology Package Center
- an Apple TV 4K as a client
Runs smooth up to 4K SDR but HDR is too much for it. Mainly using to watch recorded media.
ATV gang woot!
