Hi guys, I'm working on a bit of a network upgrade here at home and one of the projects I want to tackle is streaming to Twitch when I'm gaming, originally I had intended on using a Raspberry pi as a cheap option, however it doesn't look like that's possible since I found a deal on a pair of ATI cards (failed bitcoin miner made me an offer I couldn't refuse). So now, here I am with 2 systems running MSI R9 290s and apparently I need an NVIDIA chip to stream to the Pi.
So, since my wife has asked me previously to build a home server to store movies on, I now wonder if I can't just use this as a dual purpose streaming box. Streaming directly to devices in the home, or to Twitch as necessary, or all of the above if need be. Thought I'd post here and see if anyone has any advice for me. Our toddler has reached the age where letting him near the Disney Blue Rays is an expensive proposition, and I'd personally prefer to use something like Plex for our media library anyway for sheer convenience. And if I can stream to Twitch while I'm at it, that will be a huge bonus.
So, I'm looking for first: is this feasible? Second: do you have software/hardware suggestions? Also, any cases you'd recommend for storing multiple drives? Seems cases these days don't have nearly enough space for the old HDD as they used to, and I'm seriously thinking of 6 or more in this server with redundancy.
