I'm about to buy a qnap ts-421, but i am wondring about the plex mediaserver can stream diferent movies to diferent devices at the time fx one to a tv, one to a iPhone and one to a iPad without lagging?
The guy in the store said that it woulden't be a problem and the ts-469 Pro was over the top for home use.
But looking on the internet made me wonder if the ts-421 is the right NAS for me? I'm mostly going to use it for movie streaming.

Re: Ts-421 streaming and plex
I believe 421 can do it. Streaming is not very CPU intensive, unlike playing video, which requires faster CPU.
