Looking to offload Plex from my gaming PC (lemmy.world)

I am looking to basically just transition to a small time, forever on, server to support my growing Plex footprint. I don't need anything top of the line, and I've already crimped my lines to the room.

What's the most cost effective way to go about this? Figured i would come to the pros.

Thanks!

yeah, I was running in a container with an RTX3050 backing it for transcoding, but it never really got to that point.. I've debated a dedicated plex server, using NFS to pull from my TrueNAS... but I already have 5 servers running in my environment...my electric bill isn't very friendly... ;-)

This was only a couple of months ago... I'll try it again at some point...but I bought the Plex Pass back when it was like $49 for life... so I'm not hurting for anything. ;-)
