For me, a top line QNAP can't compete with the mini & storage, & i certainly have zero experience of anything windows, but as always YMMV. If it gets sluggish (which I can't imagine) you just update the mini & if a hard drive dies, I just update the array. I'd always go down the road of using a mac mini as although the initial outlay is expensive for what it is, it's one less thing to go wrong - sure I could get a qnap or synology, but the chips in there aren't as powerful & although the mini has HDMI, I prefer the interface on TV. iCloud Drive could turn off after disabling the iCloud Drive Desktop & Documents Folders. Edits to Apple ProRAW photos in the Photos app may not save. One look at the Plex forums would give the answer they're seeking & there's loads other posts on here talking about what people use - NAS vs mac (mini's are also mentioned as HTPCs) vs windows vs pi vs nvidia & so on. macOS Big Sur 11.2 improves Bluetooth reliability and fixes the following issues: External displays may show a black screen when connected to a Mac mini (M1, 2020) using an HDMI to DVI converter. I'm not exactly sure what the OP's question is.
Plex still runs under Rosetta it's not M1 native yet, so whilst it's no doubt better at what it does than my 2012 (& loads of other competing options), I'm holding until either it's native or apple bring out the mini pro (hopefully both come at the same time for a full fresh install & rebuild of my libraries)
Click to expand.I'd commented earlier that I was waiting for the new mac mini, that advice still stands, so that's my recommendation.
