Beginner

Post by Boston75 » Thu Aug 15, 2024 11:10 am

I just purchased a Shield Pro and want to convert my 4K (some atmos) discs so I can use Plex. What do I need?
I am looking at a lg wh16ns40 (with external Enclosure) or archgon Premium Aluminum External USB 3.0 which is better?
What will I need for storage? I'm looking at a 512gb flash drive to get started.
Will this be all I need? Any suggestions?

The pioneers are better than both of those see below if you want one.

They can be made USB with the vantec dx2

Probably don't need flash storage for movie rips. The money might be better spent buying a much bigger traditional hard drive.

I actually went with a LG Electronics WH16NS40 drive and a Seagate Portable 4TB External Hard Drive HDD – USB 3.0. Hope they work together l, just got them today and the Shield Pro comes tomorrow.. At least I have my regular shiled for now to play around with
