Hello,
I recently bought a DS916+ and I'm actually pretty satisfied with it, if not I realized that 4 hard drives is not going to cut it for me (neither adding an external box for additional drives), and since I'm still in the return window, I was thinking of swapping it for a DS1817+.
I'm worried that the performance with the DS1817+ and Plex won't be as good as on the DS916+, based on the tech specs sheet found at the Synology website suggests that the DS1817+ does not come with hardware transcoding capabilities.
Any suggestion?
