New Plex Server

My last server crashed and burned when the HDD holding all my media (2TB) crashed and was irreparable. It has been a hard couple days coming to terms with the fact that I will have to rip ALL my media (dvd/bluray) over again, a process that has been ongoing for about six months.

​

I've learned my lesson, I now wish to do this the correct way and use a NAS with a backup solution. I'm really not sure where to look as far as specs go. Most of my streaming happens across the LAN, but sometimes we like to stream remotely.

​

Should I backup with another program? or should I use a NAS with at least four drive bays and just use RAID 6? What do you ladies and gentleman do for your setups?

​

Rack space and power are not an issue, although money will have to be delegatedl first and I'll have to plan it out. But eventually I really want to do this correctly and redundantly as possible, so as to not lose anything in the future.
