Okay, glad to hear it, then! I just wanted to make sure that you were aware of this beforehand. it's easier to change specs before you buy and build the system!

Good points but this CPU should be more than what I'll use it for. khr2011 is showing stats for Emby and this CPU. "I tried Emby with different videos on the same DS918+ and it transcodes 10bit 4k HEVC 60Mbps to 1080p h264 30Mbps perfectly with 25% processor usage" https://forums.plex.tv/discussion/296528/ds418play-hardware-transcoding. It will mostly be a DLNA music server, file server and a backup end point with the occasional transcode of 1080p to our Ruko in the bedroom. . The FireTV direct streams everything I have.

Just be careful. A low power CPU is, well ,low powered. You may have issues with transcoding still. Or multiple streams. You'd want to direct stream, as much as possible.
