Plex Server: Intel NUC with 2 TB SSD installed. Curious what specific model you guys would think it worth it here.
Use Raspberry Pi. Uses a lot less power, costs less, will run Plex without breaking a sweat.
Yeah I have already purchased one to test it
Just get the USB to M2 NVM adapter or the SATA adapter and put in a 2TB drive and you are good to go.
Trying to find a mount for it. Needs to be clean and protected.

Check your local library; mine has free 3d printing.
Just to be clear, the plex server is in each bus?
Yes one in each bus. Eventually I will try to sync all of the hard drives together. They all end up in the same place on the same network. Just working on the demo right now though.
Should work fine as long as you enable guest mode from server settings, though all users will be able to see watch history for guest. /shrug
Set your wifi to have a capture page that directs users to the web page and then there's no need for the plex app, which would require internet access to the apple/google store.
https://syncthing.net/ should work to sync devices. You could consider a vpn config to the buses and cron the openvpn connections from each pi to be at regular intervals to account for the buses being in places without a signal.
Use the cost savings to buy a 3d printer. Make holders for the seats so people can place them on the headrest and view handsfree.
