  • Thank you very much for your answer

    Currently I do run Plex only for myself in Local, but I plan to start sharing it with some of my family members who live abroad. So there could be 4 simultaneous playback in 4k.

    I also plan to have a house quite domotized with many devices so Home Assistant is going to need good memory and CPU so it won’t be too short.

    Thank you very much

    I think I’m going to decide for a dual Nuc or miniPc configuration to run both VMs and Docker containers and then build a storage box with TRUENAS, what I’m not clear is what Hardware to use for this box, I want something relatively cheap since I’m only going to use it as storage and RAID, all the other processes will use the miniPC capabilities.

    Could you advise me what hardware to use for this?

    Thank you very much

    I find this option quite interesting but I don’t understand the final configuration.

    It would be to have two NAB6 mini PCs, I have seen them on Amazon and they are good machines. To those two machines install Proxmox and make them high availability.

    And then to that add a box with Truenas for storage. This is what I see a bit more complicated. Can you advise me something to build that does not go too much price?

    Only with the miniPc the budget would go to 900€, I currently have a synology ds220+ (that I plan to sell), with 2 4TB hard drives.

    I would migrate those two disks to that machine that I would build with TrueNas or Unraid.

    Could you recommend me a not very expensive hardware to build this box?

    Thank you very much and best regards
