So, I am back... with more questions.
I currently have a NAS server with Plex on it, but I want to make it a more user friendly setup for upgrading as updates come along. Right now I am stuck on an older version of Plex because I have NO idea how to run the update on it, and I cant get Plex to work on my phone or my amazon boxes (only on the PC and Laptop)
I THINK I also want to run Home Assistant on it, and set up hardwired camera's instead of the "Blink Amazon crap I have now.
SO, for someone who is NOT failure with pretty much anything except Windows, what is the best way to do that? I THINK I just want to have a drive dedicated in the server for recording the camera's (3-5 camera's) hopefully on some kind of 48 hour-7 day loop or something like that, and a drive dedicated to Plex, and a raid setup for all our pictures/documents. I have the pictures and stuff on a 1 TB drive now, which should be more than enough if I have to put the operating system on the same drive.
I am not interested in cloud storage so I def want to have my pictures backed up on more than 1 drive.
I am interested in any and all suggestions on how to do this. My Movies/ TV shows are going to be on an 8TB drive that is being delivered tomorrow.
