yeah you just have to be aware that debian 12 might not by deefault, have the correct kernel needed for hardware acceleration, so youd have to go into debian testing to compile it yourself. If you attempt to cpu encode your way through things, you'd only get a couple of streams before it bogged itself down.

Gotcha. Thanks.

I'm not 100% sold on running my media server on the NAS. It's currently a separate box, and I'm still mostly leaning toward keeping it that way and letting the NAS just be a NAS.

if youre doing strictly NAS, yes, would highly recommend the cheaper cpu variants because that's not required for it.
