I am looking to basically just transition to a small time, forever on, server to support my growing Plex footprint. I don’t need anything top of the line, and I’ve already crimped my lines to the room.

What’s the most cost effective way to go about this? Figured i would come to the pros.

Thanks!

    Maybe try adding the files in 10 TB batches or something. My library is approaching that size, and no issues here. Could be tripping up on a specific file or something. I know Jellyfin can be a little particular about folder hierarchy and naming conventions, too.

        I’m using a prebuilt docker container that I assume must have come with all the appropriate codecs lined up. If you spun up your own container or installed it directly on your host OS, you may be missing some, I suppose. Without seeing the logs I couldn’t tell you more (not that I’m some kind of self-hosting master, myself), but that seems like a pretty good lead.
