    Would this be viable as a storage NAS + Plex server? I imagine I would have to get a USB3 HDD enclosure to add some hard drives. Is this CPU good enough to transcode files for Plex?

    • descavenger on 23/01/2023 - 17:17
      +3

      Transcoding 1080p should be fine (this has quicksync), especially if you get PlexPass. I've recently started using Plex and so far have been able to avoid transcoding most of the time. A lot of content direct plays provided your users use the right settings. If you're planning to just use Plex in your own home within the same network, then this PC is more then enough and can direct play 4k with ease.

    • Kill Joy on 23/01/2023 - 17:17

      Yes it's good enough to transcode since it will have quick sync.

    • theSav on 23/01/2023 - 17:17

      Yes, it has Intel QuickSync, so should be good for Plex & transcoding - as per:
      https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/products/sku/97121/i…

      There won’t be any physical room for additional drives outside of the M2 slot and MAYBE a 2.5” SSD (OP could confirm). So you’ll need either a USB drive(s) or DAS/NAS for storage.

      I recently bought an optiplex 7060 with an Intel i5 8500T & 16GB RAM to run Plex & Docker via Ubuntu - all media storage is on my NAS

      • tasc on 23/01/2023 - 17:25

        Is it worth getting the 8th gen, it's almost a $100 more.

        • Kill Joy on 23/01/2023 - 17:31
          +1

          I think 8th gen is a tough sell given the markup - 7th gen is the sweet spot of longevity and price right now.

          • Yekul on 23/01/2023 - 17:57
            +2

            @Kill Joy: Personally think the 8th gen is worth the price gap. Keeping in mind it gets official windows 11 support and two more cpu cores. But it does depend on use case and you’re right it’s a big price jump.

        • theSav on 23/01/2023 - 18:50
          +2

          My optiplex was $284 with the 8500T & 16GB RAM & 256GB M2 SSD.

          The ‘is it worth it’ question depends entirely on your circumstances..

          The upgrade was worth it for me, because I plan to run Ubuntu Server + Docker and some intensive containers, including Plex. But if all you’re doing is the odd local video transcode for Plex for your own house, even the 6500T would suffice from what I understand (unless you need x265 transcoding)

    • tonyamazing on 23/01/2023 - 20:07
      +1

      As others have said, yes. I have this that has a slower i5-7400T CPU and it transcodes 70 Mbit 4k HDR to 1080p fine. I had 5x 45 Mbit 4K to 1080p transcodes running simultaneously to different devices as a test.

    • ihfree on 24/01/2023 - 08:18

      I have an m700 with 6400T, 16gb ram and 2x1TB SSDs. The 2.5" drive could be swapped for a higher capacity HDD.

      It's an awesome machine if you don't require much storage or redundancy.

      I'm running Plex on it. All clients decide x265, so I haven't tried HW decoding.

      I also have a file sharing setup along with samba/file browser for easy access.

    • cevad on 27/01/2023 - 00:33

      you will need a PlexPass for hardware via QuickSync, but I can confirm that it works well, I had it working reasonably well on a HP G2 800 i7-6500T, but have since upgraded to a i5-12500T Dell Optiplex 7000 Micro (got a massive bargain - not via OzB though - $350 (has 16Gb of ram and a 256Gb NVME with room for another NVME (no 2.5" SATA) and couldn't be happier.

      • tasc on 27/01/2023 - 12:10

        How are you connecting your HDDs to the optiplex?

  • Kill Joy on 23/01/2023 - 17:17

    Unfortunate that this is USSF since it'll be hard to fix expansion cards and drives.

    • bdl on 23/01/2023 - 17:28

      but good to fit unit into tight spaces

    • MagnamoniousRex on 23/01/2023 - 19:18

      You can do nvme to ethernet if you want to use it as a router

  • designate on 23/01/2023 - 17:42

    This or

    7040

    With btsr20 will bring the 7040 to ~$143

    I will be using this for my NAS to run plex server..

    Difference is the 7040 comes with wi-fi and win 10(not pro)

    • Doge on 23/01/2023 - 18:39

      7th gen has significantly better encode and decode which will really help Plex. I would definitely spend the $22 extra

  • PhilsComputerLab on 23/01/2023 - 17:57

    What's the video acceleration / decoding on this gen Intel CPU like? EDIT: Seems to do H264, H265 and VP9 decoding on the GPU which is nice.

  • mkh1991 on 23/01/2023 - 17:59

    does this support NVME?

    • Doge on 23/01/2023 - 18:44
      +1

      Yeah, single NVME slot. Also 1x SATA slot and 1x M.2 A+E Key

    • Yekul on 23/01/2023 - 22:23
      -2

      No it does not, there's no nvme slot. There's an M.2 slot as well as SATA 2.5" slot however.

      • 5kbjvb3o on 23/01/2023 - 23:22

        M.2 supports NVMe.

        • Sconnery87 on 24/01/2023 - 07:38
          +1

          Not always m.2 could be sata, but in this generation yes it would be nvme

          • rx8geek on 24/01/2023 - 18:54

            @Sconnery87: I've bought one of these from hybrid hardware. Can confirm the m.2 port supports nvme drives.

            The drive I got with mine was an m.2 sata drive but I've since upgraded it with a bigger nvme drive.

  • ThirstyCow on 23/01/2023 - 18:29

    It's $1.75 cheaper if you have ebay Plus through their listing

    What specifications are the RAM modules? DDR3 or 4? Single channel or dual channel? What speed?

    • Tollery on 23/01/2023 - 19:02

      Should be DDR4

  • PhilsComputerLab on 23/01/2023 - 18:48

    Details about the storage please. Is it PCIe NVME or SATA? Is there room to install additional storage and are necessary brackets / screws included?

    • deckoy on 23/01/2023 - 19:45

      Would like to know as well. I need 5 SATA port to replace my unraid server.

      • scotty on 23/01/2023 - 20:54

        Storage specification for OptiPlex 7050 Micro. I think it's 1x M.2 2280 NVMe + 1x 2.5" SATA. 2.5" drive bay looks like screwless design. The entire chase is a little bit more than 1litre in terms of volume so don't expect multiple SATA port and room for additional storage.

        • Mechz on 23/01/2023 - 21:30

          These are so small they will have a proprietary ribbon cable to SATA & power and 2.5" cage. No chance it has 2x SATA. So if it was not specced with that you would be hard up to find the parts to make it go.

          • darkly on 23/01/2023 - 21:34

            @Mechz: It is 1x fixed sata port, not a cable

        • Yekul on 23/01/2023 - 22:27
          -3

          Worth noting it's not an NVMe capable M.2 slot. It is an M.2 SSD slot. Your options are more limited in that regard, NVMe drives will not work in it. Even if it fits (most aren't slotted the same though anyways), it will not work.

          Hope that makes sense?

        • EWing1389 on 23/01/2023 - 23:01

          I'm thinking of running a small home file server for me + partner.
          Been looking at NAS and they are way too expensive.
          If I understand this correctly, the M.2 drive can hold the OS and I can put another 2.5 SATA drive in there for file storage purpose? Would this be a good option for my usage?

    • scotty on 23/01/2023 - 21:04
      +2

      Note that OP's deal is actually OptiPlex 7050 Micro, not USFF. 9020 USFF in your link is more than 3x the volume to 7050 Micro. While i5-4570 has about the same CPU Mark comparing to i5-7500T, it's TDP is capped at 84W vs 35W.

      So get the older 9020 USFF if you don't mind a larger computer that might use more electricity. Bonus DVD drive though.

      • CereaL on 24/01/2023 - 02:04

        Where do you see Micro? I see it listed as a USFF..

          There's no such thing as OptiPlex 7050 USFF. It's either Tower, SFF or Micro. Photo & spec suggests that it's an OptiPlex 7050 Micro.

  • xMELZAx on 27/01/2023 - 05:04

    how many ram slots? and how many are being used already?

    • cevad on 27/01/2023 - 09:26

      it will have 2 sodimm slots, can't tell you how many are being used - you'd need to check with the store

    • CountDuckula on 27/01/2023 - 16:33

      Mine arrived on wednesday, 2 slots and 1 used.
      They're under the CPU fan air baffle thing which just clips in, quick to remove.

      • iJeff on 30/01/2023 - 02:17

        I’m waiting for mine to arrive… Did yours come with a SATA disk cage? I’m hoping to run dual SSD’s in it.

          Yep,came with a SATA M2 drive installed and has a single 2.5" SATA cage: https://i.imgur.com/Cqqx05V.jpg
          Theres another M2 slot labelled M.2 WLAN also.

          • iJeff on 30/01/2023 - 23:45

            @CountDuckula: Fantastic! Looks like mine will arrive tomorrow so I better grab a second drive for it soon
