I store my entire Plex library on an old Dell t420 server which has an old spinning disk raid array and it performs well enough. And if you’re able to direct play the files they you don’t even need a strong CPU when hosting Plex, you can run it on a raspberry pi.
Can the storage be regular ol slow ass HDDs? That sounds pretty sweet honestly
Yea absolutely, people have ran it off Raspberry Pis and external USB drives lol
