Gidday,

 

Due to performance and storage limitations I've been looking at betting a NAS for my Plex back end, but then along came the Plex Cloud server and Amazon Unlimited storage. I'm tempted to try as very cost effective, but have a few questions. 

 

Has anyone got an Amazon Unlimited storage plan in NZ? I cannot find any info on whether it is actually available in our region. This thread seemed to show mixed results. Also, wondering what the bandwidth throughput would be like if it's not hosted in our region, especially when viewing high bitrate streams. 

 

Cheers,

 

Matthew

Unlimited Amazon storage is available in NZ yes I have it. I got it purposely to try out Plex Cloud. You get a free 3 month trial. I've signed up to the Plex clout beta but haven't received an invite yet. I've uploaded just a little content to Amazon just to test it out. Hopefully my invite comes through before Amazon unlimited trial ends.

My synology box downloads my TV shows and can auto sync straight to Amazon cloud.

On paper for me it's perfect.........but the content issue is a sticking point. Will need to see how it pans out.
