I recently built an overkill plex server that I need to convert to two redundant Raid 1 drives and cant quite figure out which drives I need. The original setup was a RPi 3B+ with an external USB 4TB HDD. But this soon proved to not handle streaming beyond my home network and could not share with my family. I have the USB external drive hooked up to my new i9 w/16gb and everything is flawless/quiet. But WHEN the drive fails I will loose the hundreds of hours of my life ripping the data.
I am looking for x2 6 TB HDDs in Raid 1 configuration that is quiet but can handle 3 1080p streams at once (really 2 streams at once is rare but just in case).
Do I need a WD Red NAS drive, a WD Datacenter drive, 5400, 7200, or faster (prefer not since they get noisy)
