Have you met this friend in person? How confident are you this story is real?

BELOW absolute zero?

That makes things get real weird.

Got a farm and fleet or a tractor supply near you?

I have Plex running alongside Jellyfin.

When transcoding video, Plex uses an extra 5 watts of power. Jellyfin uses an extra 55 watts.

Jellyfin also has security holes for accessing videos via URL without being authenticated.

I don’t feel like Jellyfin is ready for being exposed to the internet.

I had a 212j for about 10 years before I got a 720+.

The j series are so underpowered the dashboard took literal minutes to load.

The + series is extremely energy efficient, but still powerful. I was running a Plex server along with a Terraria server on it and had no hiccups.

Now they were designed nearly a decade apart, but still. The + series is the way to go, don’t get anything else if you go with Synology.
