Got the 215j. Excellent bit of kit. Streams to all my tablets, phones, Android box and tv's.

I've got the DS115 and wouldn't do without it. Would love to upgrade to the DS116 but won't have the money for a while.

I'm still running the 211j. Still going strong on DSM 6.0 with 2 x 2Tb Western Digital Reds in it. :smiley:

i've got the Plex app on the DS115 so i would assume it would be on this as well. i never use it though - prefer kodi

yep, no problems, as long as you stay away from subtitles. Transcoding in Plex is crap if you need to do it on the server side.

I just ordered this because it looks really cool! Think it will save me from having to constantly put things on USB and then connect it up to my NVidia shield. lol

The Shield TV has both Plex client and server built into the latest firmware. You can connect an external HD to it and use it like a NAS ands stream media from it...
