Can anyone help me spec up a system that will happily serve and transcode 1080p Plex media.
What I want is a quiet system that can be used near the TV but that can also hold multiple HDD's.
I want to be able to stream over the net to both another PC and also to a smartphone whilst also be able at the same time to serve over the LAN at home.
According to the Plex minimum system standards this will need at least an i5 cpu.
Finally I'd like to use the system to also act as a Plex client so I guess I'd need a graphics card.
Budget is around £500 give or take.
