If you need to transcode streams, you're better off with an intel CPU (even celeron) that can do QuickSync. 7th gen or better, but 8 is really the sweet spot. Whether it's your regular desktop computer or a headless mini client or something, it's the way to go. Kodi has client-side transcoding, so these ARM NAS's are fine for that.
If you aren't transcoding, then any NAS should be sufficient.
IMO, optimal pattern is a NAS separate from PMS duty. NAS -> wired connection -> PMS transcoding box -> wired connection -> switch/WAP

I have a DS216J, the basic model and while it works fine for light file storage it just can't run Plex. I don't even have my files transcoding or anything and I guess I don't see the benefit of moving up to this.
At the price, its a great deal. Just asking for advice if this would be a noticeable improvement for me.
