Need A New Server

General Discussions

I wasn’t able to find any new posts about this. But I could use some help. The Plex server I have been using for years now has taken a dump. And it is time for me to upgrade. I haven’t built a new PC in a very long time and wasn’t sure what would be a good way to go. Three of my hard drives (4TB) are still good to use. Basically new.
This PC is used for just my plex, nothing else.
Could some please point me to either a good build PC I can add my hard drives to or a good build I can do myself. Not looking at spending a lot of money, just something that will be decent for plex to run and run well.

Thank you so much for your attention and participation.

I have found refurbished business machines on Amazon (or Newegg,Tigerdirect, etc) are great for Plex servers. That’s what I’m using and have recommended to others.

As long as these are desktop machines and not servers.
The Xeon CPU’s in servers are not really cut out for Plex.

True. Sorry I should have stated it better I use Refurbished Desktop Business Machines.
