Fair enough. It’s great to see someone else getting into self hosting. For me the Seagates’ noise aren’t an issue because the fans on the SAN are so loud anyways. Also it lives in the same room as the water heater, furnace, and AC anyways.
I don’t know what NAS you have, however, I’d like to recommend a few things. My SAN is capable of running docker (Synology RS2416RP+) so setting this up was admittedly pretty easy. But look into running Sonarr, Radarr, Jackett, and Deluge. If you’re running Plex, I assume it’s for media and these programs will help you get more. Sonarr for tv shows. Radarr for movies. Jackett reads torrent sites. And finally Deluge does the downloading. Message me if you’d like some more help with it.
Thanks. Yes, I’ve looked into the Arr suite, but I have not tried it yet because English is not my native language. I’m from mexico and, even though I watch movies an series in English, my in-laws and other people with access to my NAS don’t necessarily want to watch content in English. I’m not aware about whether I can make work Arrs with Spanish content, as I guess it’d be much better integrated with content posted in 1337x, for example, where English is the main language for most media.

But I’ll look into it and will reach you, thanks.
