Ok, sorry for late reply, i have installed plex in my old but gold ns2. This one serves only as media storage for me since it has a 3tb drive. i have on this one only tv series and a few movies.
All went well, plex installed without problems, so far so good, next step-add media, so i have tried to add only 15 finished tv series that are not so big(many seasons many eps) and at this point....... error. Even after 5 hours it was still on discovery, blocked a few times and had to restart service at hand, and after this..... seeing that it's blocking and it has a lot of lag on accessing it i said stop.
Let's try with only a few movies, 10 of them at 720p, so i have stoped, cleaned the install and start from 0.
Again, install-all ok, entered in plex, added the 10 movies but hard on scan,too slow, after 2 blocking of plex service all was ok but to play one of them on an lg tv without transcoding was a hard job for it. has a few lags and so... all i can tell it's that it's working, but too hard for my old ns2.
Thanks Jocko for this add-on but i will remain to use it on home made synology since like this i will block my ns2.
When a firmware with raid will be available for my 2bignetwork2 i will test on that one firmware and plex also since it has more power to see what it's happening.
