Hey guys. Just curious if anyone out there is running a media server (Plex or otherwise) while using Drivepool and also wanting to share their setup (how many drives, backup solution, etc)
I’m about to start a media server myself and am just curious how you all use Drivepool to satisfy your needs.
Me, personally, I am going pretty basic I think.
Media Sever - Windows 10 running Plex
(1) 8 TB drive - main drive
(2) 5 TB drives - backup drives (pooled together and only powered on while backing up from main drive)
Backup - using FreeFileSync to backup any changes/additions/deletions from main drive to the backup drives.
I’m in the process of setting this all up so not a working example yet but it is what I’m hoping to do. Pick it apart and let me know if you guys can think of any thing I can change to make it easier. I like the simplicity of this so far.
