I’d like to start a weekly share your build post every Saturday. This is a place to share your Plex Server builds and get advice on how to optimize/upgrade your server from other users!

    Earlier this year, I built my new home server from a combination of my old desktop parts as well as new, higher end server parts.

    Running TrueNAS Scale on NVMe, a mirrored pair of 500GB SATA SSDs for application data, and finally for the main storage: 3 x RAIDZ2 (6 wide) with 16TB HDDs for a max capacity of 174.3TiB of storage (currently just over half full with 6 empty bays left to populate when the time comes).

    I’m using quicksync for hardware transcoding and it’s all working great!
