Good Evening
I have been using plex for numerous years but never really got to the bottom of the above so i was wondering if anyone could help a little.
Ok my set up is as follows
Mac Mini - Plex Server with 2 x 3tb desk top hard drives (powered via mains and plug into TP-LINK UH700 7-Port USB 3.0 Hub with UK Power Adaptor.
Usb plugged into mac mini, all is fine but I'm always wondering if this is the best set up as i only really want the external hard drives to run when plex is being used.
Just did a little reading on the forum and have set things up as follows :
Energy Saver - computer sleep Never
Display Sleep - 15 mins
Put hard disks to sleep when possible - yes
Wake up for network access - yes
Start up automatically after a power failure - yes
Security & Privacy
No boxes checked
Desktop and Screen Saver
Static Picture
Screensaver-Never
I have a few apple tv's around the house which access the server along with 1 fire tv, can anyone please advise if the above is fine or recommend anything better.
Thank you in advance
