Go from TOS 6 to TOS 7 safe for Plex Media Server?

[Ozzie]

Not an NAS expert here so keep that in mind. I did manage to Install my TerraMaster F8 SSD Plus (TOS 6) as a Plex Media Server along with Tailscale with no issues. I am very happy with the performance and all is running smoothly. I am ONLY using the TerraMaster as a Media Server.

Should I update to TOS 7?
My understanding is some have been having issues running TOS 7 with Plex Media Server after the update and I have been hesitating to do so since I am happy running it as it is. Let me know if the bugs have been worked out and if I should do the update.

Thank You

Let me know if the bugs have been worked out and if I should do the update.

Frankly, I'm not sure if they even know where all the bugs are yet
TOS7 appears to have introduced a lot of changes and those may be catching out the app developers so, strictly speaking, I don't think they are "bugs" in Tos7. Changes in design concepts, maybe
In the case of things like Plex, there seems to be "volume" concerning a lack of updates - not being a fanatic I don't give a "tos"
No one can really tell you if you should do an update - If you are happy with things as they are, then stick with it. If you must have the "very latest available {whatever}" then update.
If you do update, then pay very close attention to the early "Permissions Change" warning that comes with it. Allow the permissions to update automatically AND GIVE TIME for completion. Don't be tempted to rush in during the update to "see what's happening or changed". You should see a system message on completion. {hint: Lots of files take a lot longer.}

TOS 6 and TOS 7 provide the same version of Plex, 1.43.3.10896. If you are only using the F8 SSD Plus as a Plex media server and are satisfied with the current setup, you can keep it as is.
If you are interested in the new features of TOS 7, you can first refer to our official TOS 7 upgrade notes:

Plex just released 1.43.4.10903, I successfully installed it manually on TOS7 over 1.43.3.10896 that is the latest available on Terra Master app center.
