Hey there, new to the forums.
I was wondering what the best way would be to set up a TrueNAS, it will strictly be used for movie streaming for multiple users at once (4K movies/shows).
I want to install it on my rig that's on 24/7, I'll be running TrueNAS on a virtual machine (NVME M.2 SSD partition of 50GB).
Hardware I'll be using for it:
- 32GB RAM (or is 16GB enough?)
- 1x 1TB SSD (for cache?)
- 4x Seagate Barracuda 6TB 5200tpm (256mb buffer)
Is it overkill to have that much ram or an SSD for cache?
What kind of performance can I expect?
