Use the right hard drives with your Plex for a better streaming experience.
Plex is a fantastic platform for streaming all your media from a central location to connected devices. Instead of paying out for Spotify and potentially losing access to certain tracks if the service no longer offers them, you can use all your locally-stored media from CDs or downloaded from stores like iTunes and Amazon to build a catalog of content. There's also the bonus of being able to stream photos and movies, as well as music.
After purchasing a Network Attached Storage (NAS) unit or setting up a small PC yourself, you will need some hard drives to store everything on. Just like we do with general NAS usage, it's strongly recommended you upgrade from desktop-class hard drives to specific NAS versions. Here are a few excellent examples you should consider.
