Hi guys, I've been using Plex not much long now and currently just use my HP laptop and an external hard drive as a server. I've been reading alot into NAS devices and whatnot but from what I've seen the mac mini is a definite plus as a PMS. I ended up buying a ATV4 just because of how nice it looked and I love it so would rather use that instead of a plex app on the mac mini. All i'm looking for is something to keep as a server beside the tv instead of keeping my laptop on because this would mean the Mrs could watch something while I have the laptop with me at work. Before I purchase a mac mini i have a few questions i hope you guys could answer.
- Can I just simply install the PMS on to the mac mini and plug in my current hard drive and connect to it through the ATV WiFi
- Is it possible for the server to switch off with the ATV4 remote
- Are the older quad core versions really that much better then the new dual core mac minis
