I just purchased a PR4100 8TB My Cloud. Set up went extremely smooth. I did not upgrade the firmware yet. Just went straight out of the box. Installed Plex Media Server again no problems I have not attempted to run the update for Plex. Plex installed great the remote access set itself up without any modifications. In the past I had could not get my PC Server to allow remote access. I have loaded approx. 400 movies and 5k songs. It is still cranking away building the libraries. I figure I will wait for it to finish before I update the firmware on the server. I am also waiting for the build to complete before I attempt to stream any music or movies.
Are there any tips on how to get the best performance out of my server? Configuration settings in Plex or the My Cloud.
So far I am very pleased.
