As I understand it, media streaming isn't actually that taxing because your server doesn't actually have to render all of that data, just transfer it; so as long as it can handle a copy operation faster than one second per second, and you're only watching from one device at a time, it'll still work.

I haven't done it, though, so I'm not sure how much overhead Plex/Jellyfin add by way of transcoding.
