And containers can increase density. 16GB will go further with LXC or Docker than with full VMs. But it's different, too.

Yep just learning, I leave Plex to my Windows box (for now atleast)

I'm ready for my Windows box to go away, lol.

Plex runs SO much better on Linux. I can't even articulate it well enough honestly. Huge.

Ya depending how this goes I could definately see myself going that route.
So many wasted resources with windows.

I've got a Linux ISO with its name on it... Just gotta find the time to get one last backup done, lol.

You aren't wrong

Are you able to group harddrives in a non raid format with linux?
Like a stablebit drive pool for linux kind of thing?
Versus making raid 0

I know that you're asking @dafyre but just use ZFS. Software raid on Linux in the modern world has very little overhead.

Why would you do this, when you could use MD Raid and have a highly resilient solution?

I've got my important media and my "who the heck cares" media.

the Who the heck media you could still put onto RAID0 array.

I'd rather lose 1 disk and 2TB versus lose 1 disk and 6TB

You raid 0 for speed
-
RAID0 would give you a lot of read/write performance while not caring if you lose a drive (as the data is gone anyways)
-

How many TB do you have that you can't lose?
-

I don't get this concept...
RAID0 you'd lose it all, no RAID you'd have no "protection" of a drive failing either.
So unless you mean to mirror the drives in a separate mechanism for protection, while not getting any benefit of RAID, you have a backup.

I'd say 8-10TB

and how much total? Also how quickly are you going to expand?
