Hi, I think the system is enough for a basic NFS. The CPU support x64 and 8Gib memory is enough. The graph card is ATI Rade= on HD3200 seems support UVD hardware decode for 1080p h264 video, a little p= oor for a media system. But the cpu power is 125W, will cost much electricity for a 24h home=20 system. Using a raspberry-pi may save power, but come with poor performance,=20 also it is said that the new raspberry-pi-4 has a decent performance. If you want to get a good NFS, please pay high attention to the power=20 supply, it is very important for hard disks. Power fluctuation may destroy your disk.=20 That is also raspberry's weakness, it generally can't provide a stable power for = the disks. I am not very familiar with LVM, let other people answer the question.=20 But I also recommend that you can have a look about "btrfs" and "zfs".
