SURELY this new server can keep up! Is it perhaps the CPU clock speed difference that is causing the buffering? Any suggestions or insight would be greatly appreciated!Īiming to mostly replicate the build from (with some mods, hopefully around about as good as that link) Including over the Internet to various endpoints which required transcoding. This thing never struggled with playing movies at 1080p with DTS audio, etc. The old system was a desktop Frankenstein system built from an OptiPlex 9020 with an Intel Core i5 3.4GHz (quad core, no hyperthreading), 16GB RAM. This is some serious hardware, so I'm confused as to why Plex can't keep up over the local network. R720xd, 12x 3.5' bays in the front with 2x 2.5' flex bays in the rear

Greetings! I'm no stranger to running Plex in a FreeNAS jail, but for whatever reason my new server is buffering A LOT! I setup this new server from scratch as it is drastically different hardware and I migrated from one server to the other and cleanly setup the shares and also Plex.
