Good day,
So I have an old ultra small form factor optiplex 790 lying about with an i5 2400 in and i want to turn it into a little nas box for my plex server with some free nas software.
The question i have is i can choose from only 2.5" drives im looking at SSHD and HDD , *note : a large SSD is not financialy viable as this is a budget project.
Would the SSHD of say a firecuda benefit me over the standard barracuda drive as ive read that some people dont think it will matter if im just running films from it.
Any experience in this would be great help.
