Only 7 TB's OP? Hehehehe

Im just shy of 70.

Are you running it on windows? Linux? In a docker?

I run unraid, and plex it self runs in a docker.

I run on windows server 2016. I use a raid 5 external drive chassis with 4 8tb drives in raid 5. I use the plex media server app on top of the windows 2016.

Niice.

Have you tried transcoding in ram? It does WONDERS for the server, and responsiveness.

Instead of transcoding on a drive (by default, your c drive because it does it in the plex folder) it will use memory space, which is incredibly fast.

In my testing it went from transcoding like normal at 7-10 seconds on a drive, to about half a second in ram.

The entire server felt snappier after doing this.

I haven't tried it yet. I never noticed much sluggishness but i'm running 64gb of ram, i5 quad core processor. I also truly only run one or maybe two streams max at a time.
