    I know what I’m doing, and I don’t want a NAS. I have a 4Tb M.2 as my boot & games drive, and 2x 14TB HDD for Media. I have Plex installed and it’s great.

    Most people don’t need a NAS. Unless you’re running a full network setup like Linus, a NAS isn’t needed.

    I can watch stuff on my PC, or I can cast to the living room TV, while the missus casts to the bedroom PC.

      I’m not sure I understand what that means but yes, a NAS is not indispensable, but it’s a great convenience. Pre-NAS that’s how I rolled until I didn’t want to have to run my full-powered gaming PC all the time.
