We also have both Intel and AMD boards, with and without ECC support. We have cheap options but also a couple of beefier picks. Motherboards featured below are perfect for any NAS build. Below you’ll find a selection of the best NAS motherboards for Plex and home theater builds. But if you can’t find a board for that purpose, don’t worry we’ve got you covered. Something (relatively) affordable that you can pair with an older or a cheap CPU would be perfect.

If you have an old board and a CPU that is suitable for this purpose, that’s great! But what if you need a board for your NAS build? Well, the good news is that you can use virtually any motherboard as a base for a NAS build. You can even run a NAS and Plex server combo and offload your entire media library to a remote location where you can access it from every device you own.
