However don't know if this is a piece of crap device or if it can do what I want fine.Īnd please no talk about Plex sucks, built a HTPC, etc.

Now I know I can get a 4TB HDD for anywhere in the $100-$130 range (maybe cheaper if I really search for deals) but for an extra $40 or so to have 4TB of storage and I don't have to keep my computer on, always get shit when I need to reboot for something and my kid is watching cartoons that get cut off, seems like a tempting avenue to go down. So I've recently 'cut the cord' (the TV one at least) and I've been using Plex on my computer as a media server with a Roku Ultra (with Plex app) to stream movies, tv shows, and other things.all totally legal I swear, trust me dood! However watching hard drive space get chewed up real quick with this plan was thinking of just throwing another hard drive in there, but then I went down the rabbit hole at looking at NAS storage devices, which I've heard conflicting results over whether or not Plex supports it or not, and then this one device the Western Digital My Cloud Home edition which seems to be supported, in expensive and can easily handle up to 1080 video with no problems.
