Thank you! And what's the benefit of running the NUC + NAS instead of just installing the Plex server/whatever else directly on the NAS?
The NAS seems to be the pricey part. Are there cheaper pure storage solutions, short of building a new PC with a bunch of space for HDDs?
Sorry for all the questions!
If I were to buy a NUC, would it still be worth buying the Nvidia shield for streaming purposes, or do I just run everything off the NUC? I'm not the OP but in a similar situation.
I've always played medic since BF2, and being able to drag bodies is a game changer! Why is it so much fun?!
That's awesome, will definitely check it out!
Good call on Halo, $12 AUD is a no brainer
Hadn't heard of Cross code before but it looks pretty cool, thanks!
How is Cyberpunk on the deck?
Dead Cells is a good one, I've not played it in years so probably worth picking up again.
Unfortunately don't have a dock.
Been thinking of picking up MH:R so maybe now is the time.
Good news, I'll definitely pick it up then, thanks!
You're right, if you have the PC to play certain games on then the experience is definitely better, but it's still good to be able to play on the go, or, in my case, I have a 6 week old daughter and I can play the deck while she sleeps in my arms!
Amazing, thanks so much, this is all very helpful!
That all makes a lot of sense, and I've been checking out eBay to see what's about. Looks like there's some decent stuff there, an i5 NUC with 8gb of ram and a 2 bay QNAP NAS for around $350 AUD. I'll do a bit more research into what I actually need, but you've given me a great place to start, so thanks again!
And I'll definitely look into 3-2-1 backup when I start storing actual data that I'd be sad to lose.
