Many users who have large collections of media (photos, music, photos and more) will want to invest is a solid backbone to centralize their files in a single location. The most common reasons for this are to prevent file duplication, to backup sensibly and (in the case of a NAS) to be able to access their files from all of their devices. A NAS server (network attached storage) device is fast becoming the recommended and popular choice for this kind of data storage solution and big brands such as Synology, QNAP, Drobo and Western Digital have tried to outdo each other in their efforts to win the market share. The most popular program currently to centralise and access all your multimedia in one place from your devices is Plex, a media application that when combined with even a relatively basic NAS will result in you owning your very own Plex Media Server. However building the perfect plex media server is not as easy as it sounds and in order to have a truly powerful and future-proof Plex Media Server, you will need to ensure you get a NAS that arrives with certain hardware on board. Some NAS devices function better than others and today we want to highlight the top 3 NAS devices for Plex this year
