I'd say bite the bullet and get a DS1819 given the additional outlay for the expansion - you won't be far off that cost once you've sold your 918
I'd say it's worth bolting onto the larger models (and I'll be shortly adding a RX418 to my RS1219 , but even then it's partly because my rack isn't deep enough for a 2418 ), but given the faintly ridiculous cost of the expansions versus just buying a new unit, not sure it makes sense with a 4 disk model.
Does it not at all, or just not make a specific note of it? The 1819 has a more powerful CPU than the 918 , but if the 918 has some hardware transcoding special sauce... my Plex server does the transcoding so it's not something I've looked much into. |
