Hello! I'm just trying to figure out the best setup for my Nas/HTPC. I currently have a HTPC running Windows 7. It's an old i3 Sandybridge setup with 3 2tb hdd. I have 2 of those mirrored that contain pictures, videos, my music collection and the rest of the space is filled with my movie collection. I currently have everything backed up, except my movie collection. I was thinking of turning it into a Nas/HTPC with a raid 5 setup for redundancy. I was wondering which os I should use, Ubuntu server, Amahi, OMV, freenas or something else. I want to setup sabnzbd, sickbeard, Plex server, and Kodi on this machine. Also, I would like to use it to back up pictures and videos from 2 iphones. I was just going to add more HDD for more space but on windows 7 I cant do raid 5. At this point Im thinking if I should just upgrade the whole system or not. I need something that will be low maintenance and not too difficult to learn as I have never used any linux os before. I have looked at a few of your articles and I like how detailed they are. Any help will be greatly appreciated.
