Currently I have a 2010 Mac mini I use it for iTunes and storing via an external hard drive all my media movies, photos etc and also Plexy server. The mini is great but it's seen better days, around the house I have Apple TV 2/3 and also a new nvidia shield TV. I've also setup on my smart TVs PLEX, this has made the Apple TV redudant apart from the one in my daughters room.
I plan on ripping all my blurays to get lossless sound however I'll need to keep the Apple TV for daughters room, but I can use the shield for my projector and the PLEX on my TVs.
So should I get another Mac mini by a big hard drive or can I replace it with a NAS for a similar price and get the same thing but obviously with a huge capacity to store all my rips.
