Looking for some advice on my journey to expand my local storage. Currently, I have a mini PC running my Arr setup with Plex and I have an external enclosure with a HDD connected through USB. I can reliably push 4K to my Android TV. This is the system’s only use and purpose.

I need to continue to be able to Hardlink files so that I can seed back while Arr programs are sorting and renaming for Plex.

I’m not too concerned with a file backup solution or relying on this setup for sharing important files across my home network.

Would a DAS be sufficient for this? Is there any reason I should avoid this and invest in a NAS solution?

    NFS

    waiting for locked database

    I agree that sqlite is slower through the network than a database server that was made with that in mind, but I think in your case the majority of it was something different.
    I’ve recently read in the Jellyfin docs about problems with fs locks on an NFS share, and the point is that NFS does not enable locks by default or something like that, and you have to configure it yourself.
