I have a simple set up, the beelink is running win11 and is my plex server. A JBOD is connected by USB.

It’s been working great, no issues at all. I’ve been using stremio with RD and torrentio to get content.

I’m thinking of setting up the arrs on the same machine, with qBittorent. I’d have to use my VPN (Nord). Just wondered if all of this would cause any performance problems?

    What CPU does the server have? How much RAM? What’s the RAM’s speed? Are you using an SSD as a cache?

    There’s no way anyone could say what the performance would be without knowing what the machine you’re running it on can do.

    Beelink is a brand with a fairly large range of machines.

      Apologies. Mine is the beelink u59 with N5105 2.9ghz Intel celeron N CPU and 16GB DDR4 RAM and 500GB M.2 SSD.

        I have a n100 on Truenas. It handles the Plex and all the other apps just fine so I assume the n5105 will be capable

          Yeah, this. It ought to handle all of them no problem. If you run low on RAM (doubtful), you should switch from Windows to Linux, but you’re probably fine with 16GB.

            Got it all up and running, graphs on plex dash show system memory at 45%. I can’t see any difference with how plex is performing, so all happy. Thanks!
