I have a Seagate NAS which keeps undocking from my MAC and thinking of upgrading to this? Would be the best HDD to add to it?

Some WD reds are always a good bet. Cheapy desktop drives will be fine for a bit but then they break and make you cry. If you can, RAID them up. Could then back it all up to your NAS just incase

I am on my second HP Microserver with this the gen 8 my second server now and they are a great bit of kit. I upgraded the CPU to a Xeon 4 core and 16Gb ram and runiing Windows server 2012 it never misses a beat.
if your after this for a server and have Plex. hold off, cloud streaming is coming.

That is exactly what I would be running on it. I will hold off. Do you have a suggested release date/quarter?

Just two things 1) They promise never to look at your stuff
2) uploading terabytes would take a loooong time, weeks, months ??
