Thoughts on hosting OS on microSD vs M.2 hat + SSD on Raspberry Pi 5 for Plex/Jellyfin/torrenting and maybe cloud? (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

I was planning to set transcoding on the M.2 by using a Pi M.2 Hat board. However, since the M.2 is already there, should I just use it to run the OS and downloads, too, or just use it as a transcoding consumable and media drive? This Pi 5 has 16Gb of RAM, so it might handle every bit of the transcoding regardless, but I have not tested it. I'm also concerned about latency between the main Pi board and the hat, connected with a flexible circuit board cable.

Also, anyone have issues with media storage on external drive when using Plex/media servers?

Equipment has been ordered but has not been delivered yet. Should come the next few days.

Run the os off the m2. Don’t trust sd cards for anything other than bulk transient storage, simple data structures and filesystems that will be quickly moved to other systems.
